Category2ID ( string ) [0..1]

ID of the secondary category in which the item would be listed. Only returned if you set Item.CategoryMappingAllowed to true in the request and the ID you passed in SecondaryCategory was mapped to a new ID by eBay. If the secondary category has not changed or it has expired with no replacement, Category2ID does not return a value.

See the Field Index to learn which calls use Category2ID.

CategoryID ( string ) [0..1]

ID of the primary category in which the item would be listed. Only returned if you set Item.CategoryMappingAllowed to true in the request and the ID you passed in PrimaryCategory was mapped to a new ID by eBay. If the primary category has not changed or it has expired with no replacement, CategoryID does not return a value.

See the Field Index to learn which calls use CategoryID.

DiscountReason ( DiscountReasonCodeType ) [0..*]

Fees ( FeesType ) [0..1]

This container is an array of fees that would incur if the listing defined in request payload of the VerifyAddItem call was published. The fees in this container will not include any fees that are based on the purchase price (such as Final Value Fee) and only come into play when the listing has a sale.

All listing fee types are returned, even if those fees are not applicable for the listing and are '0.0'.

Note: The currency used for all fees returned under the Fees container reflects the currency used for the listing site, and not necessarily in the seller's default/home currency. For example, if a Canadian seller is using the VerifyAddItem call to verify a listing on the eBay US site, the currency type shown for each fee will be USD and not CAD.

See the Field Index to learn which calls use Fees.

ItemID ( ItemIDType (string) ) [0..1]

With a successful VerifyAddItem call, this field is always returned, but the returned value is always 0, since this call only validates the data passed in through the request payload and does not actually create an active listing.

See the Field Index to learn which calls use ItemID.

ListingRecommendations ( ListingRecommendationsType ) [0..1]

Note: This container is deprecated, and will no longer be returned after June 1, 2021. eBay recommends that you integrate with the REST-based Recommendation API to retrieve recommendations for improving your listings and sales performance, or with the Compliance API to discover non-compliant listings or listings that are at risk at becoming non-compliant in the future.

Container consisting of one or more Recommendation containers. Each Recommendation container provides a message to the seller on how a listing can be improved or brought up to standard in regards to top-rated seller/listing requirements, mandated or recommended Item Specifics, picture quality requirements, pricing and/or listing format recommendations, recommended keywords and/or Item Specifics in a Title, and/or a recommendation to offer fast handling (same-day handling or handling time of 1 day) and/or a free shipping option in order to qualify the listing for a Fast 'N Free badge.

This container is only returned if the IncludeRecommendations flag was included and set to 'true' in the VerifyAddItem request, and if at least one listing recommendation exists for the listing about to be listed. If one or more listing recommendations are returned, it will be at the seller's discretion about whether to revise the listing based on eBay's listing recommendation(s) before actually creating the listing through an AddItem call.

See the Field Index to learn which calls use ListingRecommendations.

ProductSuggestions ( ProductSuggestionsType ) [0..1]

Provides a list of products recommended by eBay which match the item information provided by the seller.

See the Field Index to learn which calls use ProductSuggestions.
