eBay Trading APIVersion 1379
 

GetFeedback

Use this call to retrieve the accumulated feedback left for a specified user, or the summary feedback data for a specific item listing or order line item.

Usage Details

GetFeedback takes the following values as input filters: UserID, Item ID, Transaction ID, or OrderLineItemID. See the API Reference Input table for more information on these fields. If no input filters are specified, the call returns the aggregate feedback score for the requesting user.

If you specify a UserID, GetFeedback returns the aggregate feedback score for the specified user and the summary feedback data used to calculate that score. If you are retrieving feedback data for a User ID, set DetailLevel to ReturnAll to return the summary data plus the details (the score and associated comment) of each feedback record.

Be default, the call returns all comment types. However, you can use the CommentType input property to specify the type of feedback comments you want to view: positive, negative, or neutral. If desired, include two comment types to exclude the third comment type from your results.

Use the Pagination.EntriesPerPage and Pagination.PageNumber input properties to paginate the results of User ID feedback data. Because pagination works only with detailed feedback entries (and not the summary feedback data), you must set DetailLevel to ReturnAll in order to paginate the result set.

The EntriesPerPage property establishes the maximum number of feedback detail entries returned per call. This value can be set to only 25 (the default), 50, 100, or 200. If you use pagination, the summary data is returned after the last feedback detail entry.

If you are requesting information based on an Item ID, the call returns a maximum number of 100 feedback records, any pagination values are ignored.

Note that you can use feedback-related platform notifications--Feedback, FeedbackLeft, and FeedbackReceived--to update feedback records without making an API call.

Working with the Response

Feedback records change infrequently and are returned with the newest records listed first. If you are developing a seller application that verifies if feedback has been left for a order line item, your application should retrieve pages only until the page contains a feedback record that was previously retrieved.

Testing GetFeedback

You can test GetFeedback in the Sandbox environment. For best results:

Argument Type Occurrence Meaning
Call-specific Input Fields [Jump to standard fields]
CommentType CommentTypeCodeType Optional,
repeatable: [0..*]
This field is used to retrieve Feedback records of a specific type (Positive, Negative, or Neutral) in FeedbackDetailArray. You can include one or two CommentType fields in the request. If no CommentType value is specified, Feedback records of all types are returned.

Applicable values: See CommentType.
FeedbackID string Optional The unique identifier of a Feedback record. This field is used if the user wants to retrieve a specific Feedback record. If FeedbackID is specified in the call request, all other input fields are ignored.
FeedbackType FeedbackTypeCodeType Optional This field is used to restrict retrieved Feedback records to those that the user left for other buyers, Feedback records received as a seller, Feedback records received as a buyer, or Feedback records received as a buyer and seller. The default value is FeedbackReceived, so if the FeedbackType field is omitted in the request, all Feedback records received by the user as a buyer and seller are returned in the response. "Feedback Left" data will not be returned in the call response.
Default: FeedbackReceived.

Applicable values:

CustomCode
(in) Reserved for internal or future use.
FeedbackLeft
(in) This enumeration value will be used in the FeedbackType field of a GetFeedback call if the user wants to retrieve the Feedback they have left for their order partners while acting as a seller or buyer.
FeedbackReceived
(in) This enumeration value will be used in the FeedbackType field of a GetFeedback call if the user wants to retrieve the Feedback data that they have received acting as a seller and buyer.
FeedbackReceivedAsBuyer
(in) This enumeration value will be used in the FeedbackType field of a GetFeedback call if the user only wants to retrieve the Feedback data that they have received acting as a buyer.
FeedbackReceivedAsSeller
(in) This enumeration value will be used in the FeedbackType field of a GetFeedback call if the user only wants to retrieve the Feedback data that they have received acting as a seller.
ItemID ItemIDType (string) Optional Unique identifier for an eBay listing. A listing can have multiple order line items, but only one ItemID. If ItemID is specified in the GetFeedback request, the returned Feedback record(s) are restricted to the specified ItemID. The maximum number of Feedback records that can be returned is 100.
OrderLineItemID string Optional OrderLineItemID is a unique identifier for an eBay order line item. An OrderLineItemID can be used as an input filter in the GetFeedback request. If an OrderLineItemID value is used to retrieve a feedback record on a specific order line item, the FeedbackType and Pagination fields (if included) are ignored.
Pagination PaginationType Optional Controls the pagination of the result set. Child elements, EntriesPerPage and PageNumber, specify the maximum number of individual feedback records to return per call and which page of data to return. Only applicable if DetailLevel is set to ReturnAll and the call is returning feedback for a UserID. Feedback summary data is not paginated, but when pagination is used, it is returned after the last feedback detail entry.

Accepted values for Pagination.EntriesPerPage for GetFeedback is 25 (the default), 50, 100, and 200. If you specify a value of zero, or a value greater than 200, the call fails with an error. If you specify a value between one and twenty-four, the value is rounded up to 25. Values between 26 and 199 that are not one of the accepted values are rounded down to the nearest accepted value.
Pagination.EntriesPerPage int Optional This integer value is used to specify the maximum number of entries to return in a single "page" of data. This value, along with the number of entries that match the input criteria, will determine the total pages (see PaginationResult.TotalNumberOfPages) in the result set.

The maximum and default values are not the same for all calls. For most Trading API calls, the maximum value is 200 and the default value is 25 entries per page.
Pagination.PageNumber int Optional Specifies the number of the page of data to return in the current call. Default is 1 for most calls. For some calls, the default is 0. Specify a positive value equal to or lower than the number of pages available (which you determine by examining the results of your initial request). See the documentation for the individual calls to determine the correct default value.

Min: 1. Default: 1.
TransactionID string Optional Unique identifier for an eBay order line item. A TransactionID can be paired up with its corresponding ItemID and used as an input filter in the GetFeedback request. If an ItemID/TransactionID pair or an OrderLineItemID value is used to retrieve a feedback record on a specific order line item, the FeedbackType and Pagination fields (if included) are ignored.

The TransactionID value for auction listings is always 0 since there can be only one winning bidder/one sale for an auction listing.

Note: Beginning in July 2024, non-zero transaction IDs will start being returned for auction listings. If necessary, update code to handle non-zero transaction IDs for auction transactions before this time.
UserID UserIDType (string) Optional The user's eBay User ID is specified in this field. If this field is used, all retrieved Feedback data will be for this eBay user. Specifies the user whose feedback data is to be returned. If this field is omitted in the call request, all retrieved Feedback records will be for the eBay user making the call.
Standard Input Fields  
DetailLevel DetailLevelCodeType Optional,
repeatable: [0..*]
Detail levels are instructions that define standard subsets of data to return for particular data components (e.g., each Item, Transaction, or User) within the response payload. For example, a particular detail level might cause the response to include buyer-related data in every result (e.g., for every Item), but no seller-related data.

Specifying a detail level is like using a predefined attribute list in the SELECT clause of an SQL query. Use the DetailLevel element to specify the required detail level that the client application needs pertaining to the data components that are applicable to the request.

The DetailLevelCodeType defines the global list of available detail levels for all request types. Most request types support certain detail levels or none at all. If you pass a detail level that exists in the schema but that isn't valid for a particular request, eBay ignores it and processes the request without it.

For each request type, see the detail level tables in the Input/Output Reference to determine which detail levels are applicable and which elements are returned for each applicable detail level.

Note that DetailLevel is required input for GetMyMessages.

With GetSellerList and other calls that retrieve large data sets, please avoid using ReturnAll when possible. For example, if you use GetSellerList, use GranularityLevel instead, or use GetSellerEvents. If you do use 'ReturnAll' with GetSellerList, use a small Pagination.EntriesPerPage value and a narrow EndTimeFrom/EndTimeTo date range for better performance.

Applicable values:

ReturnAll
(in) Returns all available data. With GetSellerList and other calls that retrieve large data sets, please avoid using ReturnAll when possible. For example, if you use GetSellerList, use a GranularityLevel or use the GetSellerEvents call instead. If you use ReturnAll with GetSellerList, use a small EntriesPerPage value and a short EndTimeFrom/EndTimeTo range for better performance.

(Not all values in DetailLevelCodeType apply to this field.)
ErrorLanguage string Optional Use ErrorLanguage to return error strings for the call in a different language from the language commonly associated with the site that the requesting user is registered with. Below are some examples from different countries.

ID Country
en_AU Australia
de_AT Austria
nl_BE Belgium (Dutch)
fr_BE Belgium (French)
en_CA Canada
fr_CA Canada (French)
zh_CN China
fr_FR France
de_DE Germany
zh_HK Hong Kong
en_IN India
en_IE Ireland
it_IT Italy
nl_NL Netherlands
en_SG Singapore
es_ES Spain
de_CH Switzerland
en_GB United Kingdom
en_US United States
MessageID string Optional Most Trading API calls support a MessageID element in the request and a CorrelationID element in the response. If you pass in a MessageID in a request, the same value will be returned in the CorrelationID field in the response. Pairing these values can help you track and confirm that a response is returned for every request and to match specific responses to specific requests. If you do not pass a MessageID value in the request, CorrelationID is not returned.

Note: GetCategories is designed to retrieve very large sets of metadata that change once a day or less often. To improve performance, these calls return cached responses when you request all available data (with no filters). When this occurs, the MessageID and CorrelationID fields aren't applicable. However, if you specify an input filter to reduce the amount of data returned, the calls retrieve the latest data (not cached). When this occurs, MessageID and CorrelationID are applicable.
OutputSelector string Optional,
repeatable: [0..*]
You can use the OutputSelector field to restrict the data returned by a call. This field can make the call response easier to manage, especially when a large payload is returned. If you use the OutputSelector field, the output data will only include the field(s) you specified in the request, as well as all of its child fields (if a field is a container) and its parent fields (if any). Note that it is possible that a field included through an OutputSelector field may still not be returned if it is not applicable, or if it is not found based on other criteria set up in the request payload.

For example, if you are using GetItem and you only want to retrieve the URL of the View Item page (emitted in ViewItemURL field) and the item's Buy It Now price (emitted in BuyItNowPrice field), you would include two separate OutputSelector fields and set the value for each one as ViewItemURL and BuyItNowPrice as in the following example:

 If the following output selectors are used: 

...
<OutputSelector>ViewItemURL</OutputSelector>
<OutputSelector>BuyItNowPrice</OutputSelector>

...

...the response might look like the following

<Item>
<BuyItNowPrice currencyID="USD">0.0</BuyItNowPrice>
<ListingDetails>
<ViewItemURL>http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tag-Heuer-Mens-Watch/182879833261</ViewItemURL>
</ListingDetails>
</Item>

See OutputSelector.

Version string Conditional The version number of the API code that you are programming against (e.g., 1149). The version you specify for a call has these basic effects:
  • It indicates the version of the code lists and other data that eBay should use to process your request.
  • It indicates the schema version you are using.
You need to use a version that is greater than or equal to the lowest supported version.
For the SOAP API: If you are using the SOAP API, this field is required. Specify the version of the WSDL your application is using.

For the XML API: If you are using the XML API, this field has no effect. Instead, specify the version in the X-EBAY-API-COMPATIBILITY-LEVEL HTTP header. (If you specify Version in the body of an XML API request and it is different from the value in the HTTP header, eBay returns an informational warning that the value in the HTTP header was used instead.)

See:
    HTTP headers
    eBay Schema Versioning Strategy
    Lowest Supported Version

WarningLevel WarningLevelCodeType Optional Controls whether or not to return warnings when the application passes unrecognized or deprecated elements in a request.

An unrecognized element is one that is not defined in any supported version of the schema. Schema element names are case-sensitive, so using WarningLevel can also help you remove any potential hidden bugs within your application due to incorrect case or spelling in field names before you put your application into the Production environment.

WarningLevel only validates elements; it doesn't validate XML attributes. It also doesn't control warnings related to user-entered strings or numbers, or warnings for logical errors.

We recommend that you only use this during development and debugging. Do not use this in requests performed in the Production environment.

Applicable values:

High
(in) The WarningLevel value is set to High if the user wishes to receive warnings when the application passes unrecognized or deprecated elements in an API call request. Setting the WarningLevel value to High is not recommended in a production environment. Instead, it should only be used during the development/debugging stage.
Low
(in) The WarningLevel value is set to Low if the user does not wish to receive warnings when the application passes unrecognized or deprecated elements in an API call request. This is the default value if WarningLevel is not specified in the call request.

See Warning Level.

FeedbackDetailArray
  .FeedbackDetail.TransactionID
string Conditionally Unique identifier for an eBay order line item for which the Feedback entry was left. This field is not returned if the Feedback entry was left for an auction listing, since all auction listings have a TransactionID value of 0.

Note: Beginning in July 2024, non-zero transaction IDs will start being returned for auction listings. If necessary, update code to handle non-zero transaction IDs for auction transactions before this time. Note: For Feedback entries that were submitted less than five years ago, this field is returned to users who are not the buyer or seller of the order line item, but a dummy value such as '111111111' will be displayed. For Feedback entries that were submitted more than five years ago, this field will not be returned at all to users who do not have a relationship (as a buyer or seller) to the Feedback entry.

DetailLevel: ReturnAll. Also returned if DetailLevel is not provided on input.
PageNumber int Always Indicates the page of data that is currently displaying. The page number to display is set in the Pagination.PageNumber field in the request. If this field is omitted, the PageNumber value defaults to 1 (first page of Feedback entries). If the integer value input into the Pagination.PageNumber field in the request is higher than the total number of available pages, the call fails with an error.

DetailLevel: ReturnAll. Also returned if DetailLevel is not provided on input.
PaginationResult PaginationResultType Always Contains information regarding the pagination of data, including the total number of Feedback entries and the total number of pages required to show all of these Feedback entries. The total number of pages is dependent on the Pagination.EntriesPerPage value (if set). The EntriesPerPage value defaults to 25 if the Pagination.EntriesPerPage field is not used.

Standard Output Fields  
Ack AckCodeType Always A token representing the application-level acknowledgement code that indicates the response status (e.g., success). The AckCodeType list specifies the possible values for the Ack field.

Applicable values:

CustomCode
(out) Reserved for internal or future use.
Failure
(out) This value indicates that the call request processing failed.
Success
(out) This value indicates that the call request was processed successfully without any issues.
Warning
(out) This value indicates that the call request was successful, but processing was not without any issues. These issues can be checked in the Errors container, that will also be returned when one or more known issues occur with the call request.

(Not all values in AckCodeType apply to this field.)

Code so that your app gracefully handles any future changes to this list.
Build string Always This refers to the specific software build that eBay used when processing the request and generating the response. This includes the version number plus additional information. eBay Developer Support may request the build information when helping you resolve technical issues.
CorrelationID string Conditionally Most Trading API calls support a MessageID element in the request and a CorrelationID element in the response. If you pass in a MessageID in a request, the same value will be returned in the CorrelationID field in the response. Pairing these values can help you track and confirm that a response is returned for every request and to match specific responses to specific requests. If you do not pass a MessageID value in the request, CorrelationID is not returned.

Note: GetCategories is designed to retrieve very large sets of metadata that change once a day or less often. To improve performance, these calls return cached responses when you request all available data (with no filters). When this occurs, the MessageID and CorrelationID fields aren't applicable. However, if you specify an input filter to reduce the amount of data returned, the calls retrieve the latest data (not cached). When this occurs, MessageID and CorrelationID are applicable.
Errors ErrorType Conditionally,
repeatable: [0..*]
A list of application-level errors (if any) that occurred when eBay processed the request.
Errors.ErrorClassification ErrorClassificationCodeType Conditionally API errors are divided between two classes: system errors and request errors.

Applicable values:

CustomCode
(out) Reserved for internal or future use.
RequestError
(out) An error has occurred either as a result of a problem in the sending application or because the application's end-user has attempted to submit invalid data (or missing data). In these cases, do not retry the request. The problem must be corrected before the request can be made again. If the problem is due to something in the application (such as a missing required field), the application must be changed. If the problem is a result of end-user data, the application must alert the end-user to the problem and provide the means for the end-user to correct the data. Once the problem in the application or data is resolved, resend the request to eBay with the corrected data.
SystemError
(out) Indicates that an error has occurred on the eBay system side, such as a database or server down. An application can retry the request as-is a reasonable number of times (eBay recommends twice). If the error persists, contact Developer Technical Support. Once the problem has been resolved, the request may be resent in its original form.

Code so that your app gracefully handles any future changes to this list.
Errors.ErrorCode token Conditionally A unique code that identifies the particular error condition that occurred. Your application can use error codes as identifiers in your customized error-handling algorithms.

See Errors By Number.

Errors.ErrorParameters ErrorParameterType Conditionally,
repeatable: [0..*]
This optional element carries a list of context-specific error variables that indicate details about the error condition. These are useful when multiple instances of ErrorType are returned.
Errors.ErrorParameters
  [ attribute ParamID ]
string Conditionally This optional element carries a list of context-specific error variables that indicate details about the error condition. These are useful when multiple instances of ErrorType are returned.
Errors.ErrorParameters.Value string Conditionally This is the value of the request parameter noted in the ParamID attribute. So, if the ParamID value was ItemID, the value in this field would be the actual value of that ItemID.
Errors.LongMessage string Conditionally A more detailed description of the condition that raised the error.
Errors.SeverityCode SeverityCodeType Conditionally Indicates whether the error is a severe error (causing the request to fail) or an informational error (a warning) that should be communicated to the user.

Applicable values:

CustomCode
(out) Reserved for internal or future use.
Error
(out) The request that triggered the error was not processed successfully. When a serious application-level error occurs, the error is returned instead of the business data.

If the source of the problem is within the application (such as a missing required element), change the application before you retry the request.
  • If the problem is due to end-user input data, please alert the end-user to the problem and provide the means for them to correct the data. Once the problem in the application or data is resolved, you can attempt to re-send the request to eBay.
  • If the source of the problem is on eBay's side, An application can retry the request as-is a reasonable number of times (eBay recommends twice). If the error persists, contact Developer Technical Support. Once the problem has been resolved, the request may be resent in its original form.


See the Error handling section of the Making a Trading API call guide for more information.
Warning
(out) The request was processed successfully, but something occurred that may affect your application or the user. For example, eBay may have changed a value the user sent in. In this case, eBay returns a normal, successful response and also returns the warning.

When a warning occurs, the error is returned in addition to the business data. In this case, you do not need to retry the request (as the original request was successful). However, depending on the cause or nature of the warning, you might need to contact either the end user or eBay to effect a long term solution to the problem to prevent it from reoccurring in the future.

Code so that your app gracefully handles any future changes to this list.
Errors.ShortMessage string Conditionally A brief description of the condition that raised the error.
HardExpirationWarning string Conditionally Expiration date of the user's authentication token. Only returned within the 7-day period prior to a token's expiration. To ensure that user authentication tokens are secure and to help avoid a user's token being compromised, tokens have a limited life span. A token is only valid for a period of time (set by eBay). After this amount of time has passed, the token expires and must be replaced with a new token.
Timestamp dateTime Always This value represents the date and time when eBay processed the request. The time zone of this value is GMT and the format is the ISO 8601 date and time format (YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.SSSZ). See the Time Values section in the eBay Features Guide for information about this time format and converting to and from the GMT time zone.

Note: GetCategories and other Trading API calls are designed to retrieve very large sets of metadata that change once a day or less often. To improve performance, these calls return cached responses when you request all available data (with no filters). When this occurs, this time value reflects the time the cached response was created. Thus, this value is not necessarily when the request was processed. However, if you specify an input filter to reduce the amount of data returned, the calls retrieve the latest data (not cached). When this occurs, this time value does reflect when the request was processed.
Version string Always The version of the response payload schema. Indicates the version of the schema that eBay used to process the request. See the Standard Data for All Calls section in the eBay Features Guide for information on using the response version when troubleshooting CustomCode values that appear in the response.
