September 2023 SP-API Release Announcement

[hudalexa]

Listings Items API pack hierarchy attributes are now available in US, EU, and JP

Developers can now use the Listings Items API to create package hierarchy relationships, which can link units, case packs, and pallets of a product to create a connected listing. This change improves both search visibility and the detail page experience. Developers can create items representing the following:

• Individual sellable unit
• Case (innerpack) containing the individual unit and referencing the SKU identifier of the individual unit
• Pallet (casepack) containing the case (innerpack)

Developers can reference the SKU identifier of all product size hierarchies (units, cases, and pallets) with the package hierarchy attributes provided.

To learn more about creating package hierarchies using Listings Items API, refer to theConfiguring package hierarchies section of the Building Listings Management Workflows Guide.

Update to the Orders API to clarify BuyerCompanyName description

The BuyerCompanyName operation description in the Orders v0 API has been updated to clarify the company name of the destination address.
