MPN的eBay API搜索

Question

I am trying to search listings on eBay by MPN via their api.

I stumbled upon this: https://ebaydts.com/eBayKBDetails?KBid=1723 leading to FindProducts call

It should be able to filter products by MPN by setting ProductID.Type=MPN . I tried it, but it returns products that are not related to the MPN

http://open.api.ebay.com/shopping?callname=FindProducts&responseencoding=XML&appid=APP_ID&siteid=0&version=829&MaxEntries=20&ProductID.Type=MPN&ProductID.Value=PLEDV1945A

So either i am doing something wrong, or it is returning wrong products. Does someone know how to get listings by MPN the proper way?

Thank you

I don't know the exact answer to your question (and I haven't searched eBay by MPN before), but know that the FindProducts API call is being deprecated soon, and eBay is expecting people to use a newer API call called findItemsByProduct - docs here .

Also in eBay's newer Finding API family is the API call named findItemsAdvanced which is also worth a shot.
