findItemsByCategory: How do I pull up Completed listing?
Posted: Nov 2, 2009 11:32 PM

I am trying to retrieve items for auctions that are completed. I've tried a zillion different combinations, but my basic format is something like:

http://svcs.ebay.com/services/search/FindingService/v1?OPERATION-NAME=findItemsByCategory
&SERVICE-VERSION=1.0.0
&SECURITY-APPNAME=xxxxxxxx
&RESPONSE-DATA-FORMAT=XML
&REST-PAYLOAD
&categoryId=xxxxx
&sellingstatus.sellingstate=Ended

or

&item.sellingstatus=Completed

or

a bunch of other combinations. I only get Active auctions returned.

Are the parameters case sensitive?

Thanks,

jay

Hi jaykoch505,

There are no input parameters in the Finding API that can be used filter items that are ended. So this can't be done at the request level.

Thanks for getting back to me.

So, is it possible to get data on completed listings in any way?

Have fun...
