BotBlockRequestType

Type used by the BotBlock container of the PlaceOffer call request. The BotBlock container is conditionally required in a PlaceOffer call request if the previous PlaceOffer call resulted in a BotBlock container being returned in the response. The BotBlock container in the response will contain an authentication token and a URL that will need to be passed into the BotBlock container of the PlaceOffer call request in the subsequent call.

Fields

BotBlockToken ( string ) [0..1]
This string value is an encrypted token that eBay generates and returns in the BotBlock.BotBlockToken field of the PlaceOffer call response when eBay is requiring that the user supply an authentication token and URL in order for eBay to process the PlaceOffer call. As soon as a user gets a BotBlock container returned in the PlaceOffer call response, that user should grab the authentication token and the URL and then run another PlaceOffer call, but this time using the BotBlock container and passing in the authentication token and the URL values.
See the Field Index to learn which calls use BotBlockToken.

BotBlockUserInput ( string ) [0..1]
This string value is a URL that eBay generates and returns in either the BotBlock.BotBlockUrl or BotBlock.BotBlockAudioUrl field (returned for site-impaired users) of the PlaceOffer call response when eBay is requiring that the user supply an authentication token and URL in order for eBay to process the PlaceOffer call. As soon as a user gets a BotBlock container returned in the PlaceOffer call response, that user should grab the authentication token and the URL and then run another PlaceOffer call, but this time using the BotBlock container and passing in the authentication token and the URL values.
