GetItemsAwaitingFeedback
Use this call to retrieve a list of order line items in which the user was involved and for which feedback is still needed from either the buyer or the seller.
You can specify the sort order of the returned list using one of the following Sort values:
- Title
- TitleDescending
- UserID
- UserIDDescending
- EndTime
- EndTimeDescending
- FeedbackReceived
- FeedbackReceivedDescending
- FeedbackLeft
- FeedbackLeftDescending
If GetItemsAwaitingFeedback execution is successful, it returns an ItemsAwaitingFeedback container. Within this contaier is a TransactionArray that contains a Transaction container for each item that is awaiting feedback.
Parse each Transaction to get the information that you need for your application. Values that you might want to store include values in the Buyer and Item containers. The Item container does not return a complete set of item values, however it does return an ItemID, ListingDetails, and Title. In addition, the response also contains a PaginationResult that details the number of pages and order line items contained in the response.

| 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.
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 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: 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:
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:
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 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 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 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. |

| Return Value | Type | Occurrence | Meaning |

This container will not be returned if no order line items are awaiting Feedback from the user who made the call.
.PaginationResult PaginationResultType Always Provides information about the list of order line items, including number of pages and number of entries.
.PaginationResult
.TotalNumberOfEntries int Always Indicates the total number of entries that could be returned by repeated call requests. Returned with a value of 0 if no entries are available.
.PaginationResult
.TotalNumberOfPages int Always Indicates the total number of pages of data that could be returned by repeated requests. Returned with a value of 0 if no pages are available.
.TransactionArray TransactionArrayType Always Contains a list of Transaction objects. Returned as an empty tag if no applicable order line items exist.
.TransactionArray.Transaction TransactionType Conditionally,
repeatable: [0..*] A Transaction container is returned for each line item in the order. This container consists of detailed information on one order line item.
For the AddOrder call, a Transaction container is used to identified the unpaid order line items that are being combined into one Combined Invoice order.
.TransactionArray.Transaction
.Buyer UserType Conditionally Container consisting of user and shipping details for the order's buyer. To be returned by GetItemsAwaitingFeedback the seller must be the one making the request.
For GetOrders and GetItemTransactions only: If using Trading WSDL Version 1019 or above, this container will only be returned to the buyer or seller, and no longer returned at all to third parties. If using a Trading WSDL older than Version 1019, real data is only returned to the buyer or seller, and dummy/masked data will be returned to all third parties.
.TransactionArray.Transaction
.Buyer.UserID UserIDType (string) Conditionally Unique eBay user ID for the user.
Note: Effective September 26, 2025, select developers will no longer receive username data for U.S. users through this field. Instead, an immutable user ID will be returned in its place. For more information, please refer to Data Handling Compliance.
Since a bidder's user info is anonymous, this tag contains the actual value of an ID only for that bidder, and for the seller of an item that the user is bidding on. For other users, the actual value is replaced by an anonymous value, according to these rules:
When bidding on items, UserID is replaced with the value "a****b" where a and b are random characters from the UserID. For example, if the UserID =
IBidALot, it might be displayed as, "I****A". Important: In this format, the anonymous bidder ID can change for each auction. For GetMyeBayBuying only, when bidding on items: UserID is replaced with the value "a****b" where a and b are random characters from the UserID.
When bidding on items listed on the Philippines site: UserID is replaced with the value "Bidder X" where X is a number indicating the order of that user's first bid. For example, if the user was the third bidder, UserID =
Bidder 3. Note that in this Philippines site format, the anonymous bidder ID stays the same for a given auction, but is different for different auctions. For example, a bidder who is the third and then the seventh bidder in an auction will be listed for both bids as "Bidder 3". However, if that same bidder is the first bidder on a different auction, the bidder will be listed for that auction as "Bidder 1", not "Bidder 3". For GetMyeBayBuying only, when bidding on items listed on the UK and AU sites: UserID is replaced with the string "High Bidder".
For PlaceOffer, see also SellingStatus.HighBidder.
.TransactionArray.Transaction
.FeedbackReceived FeedbackInfoType Conditionally This container consists of Feedback received by the caller from their order partner. This container is only returned if the order is complete and feedback on the order line item has been received by the caller.
.TransactionArray.Transaction
.FeedbackReceived.CommentType CommentTypeCodeType Conditionally This value indicates the Feedback rating for the user specified in the TargetUser field. This field is required in CompleteSale if the FeedbackInfo container is used.
A Positive rating increases the user's Feedback score, a Negative rating decreases the user's Feedback score, and a Neutral rating does not affect the user's Feedback score. eBay users also have the right to withdraw feedback for whatever reason.
Sellers cannot leave Neutral or Negative ratings for buyers.
Applicable values: See CommentType.
Code so that your app gracefully handles any future changes to this list.
.TransactionArray.Transaction
.Item ItemType Conditionally This container consists of relevant details about the listing associated with the sales transaction. Which listing fields are returned under this container will depend on the listing, the eBay marketplace, and the API call.
In an AddOrder call, only the unique identifier of the listing (ItemID) is needed to help identify the sales transaction to combine into a 'Combined Invoice' order.
.TransactionArray.Transaction
.Item.ItemID ItemIDType (string) Conditionally The unique identifier of the eBay listing. This identifier is generated by eBay and returned in the response of an Add call if an item is successfully listed. Once an item is successfully created, the ItemID cannot be modified.
Note: Although we represent item IDs as strings in the schema, we recommend you store them as 64-bit signed integers. If you choose to store item IDs as strings, allocate at least 19 characters (assuming decimal digits are used) to hold them. Your code should be prepared to handle IDs of up to 19 digits.
.TransactionArray.Transaction
.Item.ListingDetails ListingDetailsType Conditionally Various details about a listing, some of which are calculated or derived after the item is listed. These include the start and end time, converted (localized) prices, and certain flags that indicate whether the seller specified fields whose values are not visible to the requesting user. For GetMyeBayBuying, returned as a self-closed element if no listings meet the request criteria.
In an Add/Revise/Relist call, this container is used to set the Best Offer Auto-Accept and Best Offer Auto-Decline threshold values.
.TransactionArray.Transaction
.Item.ListingDetails.EndTime dateTime Conditionally Time stamp (in GMT) when the listing is scheduled to end (calculated based on the values of StartTime and ListingDuration ) or the actual end time if the item has ended.
.TransactionArray.Transaction
.Item.Seller UserType Conditionally Container for information about this listing's seller.
Returned by GetItemsAwaitingFeedback if Buyer is making the request.
.TransactionArray.Transaction
.Item.Title string Conditionally This field is used to specify the title of the listing. This field is conditionally required in an Add call unless the seller successfully uses the ProductListingDetails container to find an eBay catalog product match. When the seller successfully uses an eBay catalog product to create a listing, the listing title, listing description, Item Specifics, and stock photo defined in the catalog product are used to create the listing.
You cannot use HTML or JavaScript in the Title. (HTML characters will be interpreted literally as plain text.)
The listing title can only be changed if the active listing has yet to have any bids or sales, and the listing does not end within 12 hours.
Note: When making a GetSellerEvents call, this field will be returned masked as
***************** for on-hold listings. Note: When making a GetSellerTransactions or GetMyeBaySelling call, the item ID value of the listing will be returned in this field to indicate that the listing is on hold. Max length: 80.
.TransactionArray.Transaction
.OrderLineItemID string Conditionally A unique identifier for an eBay order line item. This identifier is created as soon as there is a commitment to buy from the seller, or the buyer actually purchases the item using a 'Buy it Now' option.
For GetOrders and GetItemTransactions only: If using Trading WSDL Version 1019 or above, this field will only be returned to the buyer or seller, and no longer returned at all to third parties. If using a Trading WSDL older than Version 1019, order line item ID is only returned to the buyer or seller, and a dummy value of
10000000000000 will be returned to all third parties. .TransactionArray.Transaction
.TransactionID string Conditionally Unique identifier for an eBay sales transaction. This identifier is created once there is a commitment from a buyer to purchase an item, or if/when the buyer actually purchases the line item through a 'Buy it Now' option. An ItemID/TransactionID pair can be used and referenced during an order checkout flow to identify a line item.
The TransactionID value for auction listings is always
0 since there can be only one winning bidder/one sale for an auction listing. Note: Historically, TransactionID values have been '0' for auction listings, and some developers may have built logic around this. However, non-zero TransactionID values for auction listings started being used for some eBay marketplaces beginning in July 2024, and all eBay marketplaces are expected to start using non-zero TransactionID values for auction listings in the near future. If necessary, developers should update code to handle non-zero transaction IDs for auction transactions.
For GetOrders and GetItemTransactions only: If using Trading WSDL Version 1019 or above, this field will only be returned to the buyer and seller, and no longer returned at all to third parties. If using a Trading WSDL older than Version 1019, transaction ID is only returned to the buyer and seller, and a dummy value of
10000000000000 will be returned to all third parties.

See Errors By Number.
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.
[ 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.
Applicable values:
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.
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.
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.
