Q. When attempt to revise the Item Description on an Auction type item, ReviseItem API returns the Error 10029 -Listing cannot be revised.
A. There are a few restrictions on revising an Auction item's Description. The ReviseItem validation criteria are:
Are there any bids on the listing?
Is the listing ending within 12 hours?
Are there any active Best Offers on the listing ?
If the original listing either has bids or ends within 12 hours, you can only append text to your item description, not replace the original. The sample ReviseItem request for revising an item's description by appending is:
| <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <ReviseItemRequestxmlns="urn:ebay:apis:eBLBaseComponents"> <Version>1271</Version> <ErrorLanguage>en_US</ErrorLanguage> <WarningLevel>High</WarningLevel> <Item> <ItemID>150000358583</ItemID> <Description> Revised item description.</Description> <DescriptionReviseMode>Append</DescriptionReviseMode> </Item> <RequesterCredentials> <eBayAuthToken>Your Token</eBayAuthToken> </RequesterCredentials> </ReviseItemRequest> |
