More about the Changes to the Unpaid Item Dispute Process

Posted by John Darrow in Documentation & Product News
Thursday, Nov.05.2009, 3:23 PM PT

In October, eBay introduced changes in the Unpaid Item (UPI) Dispute process. We have a few clarifications and additions for you on this process. As noted in the UPI documentation, the new process lets you open  a dispute as soon as 4 days after the transaction (instead of 7) and close disputes as soon as 4 days after opening the dispute (instead of 7), etc.

How do you know whether these new timelines apply to your disputes or not? It is all about the request version. If you created a UPI dispute with a request version lower than 637, the old timelines apply and the various platform notifications for messaging are still supported.  But if the request version is 637 or greater, the new timelines apply, and the following platform notifications no longer apply: BuyerResponseDispute, SellerClosedDispute, SellerOpenedDispute, SellerRespondedToDispute. (The reason the notifications are not needed is because messages between buyer and seller are no longer added to the dispute.)

Support for the old process will be removed around March 2010, so please migrate your UPI dispute code to work with the new process.

What do you think of the new UPI process? I would like to hear your thoughts.

Around the time version 637 of the Trading API was released, changes went into effect for the Unpaid Item Dispute process.

The Unpaid Item Disputes documentation now reflects these changes.

Potential "appinfo" Breaking Change

Posted by John Darrow in Developer Community, Shopping API, Trading API & Documentation
Tuesday, Sep.15.2009, 4:37 PM PT

The eBay API team is considering changing the case of the appinfo tags found in various wsdls—specifically, changing from upper to lowercase on the first letter only. For example, CallName could become callName, RequiredInput could become requireInput, and MaxLength could become maxLength.

Example... Before:

<xs:appinfo>
  <CallInfo>
    <CallName>AddItem</CallName>
After:
<xs:appinfo>
  <callInfo>
    <callName>AddItem</callName>
Note that schema elements such as names of calls, elements and types are not affected (e.g. AddItem). Our proposal is only about the names of tags unique to the xs:appinfo structure.

The eBay API team would like to hear from anyone who would be affected by such a change: characterize, if you would, the impact of such a change on your tools, etc.

Please contact    developer-relations@ebay.com

Thanks
