GetUserPreferences
Use this call to retrieve user preferences for the authenticated caller.
Usage Details
For a preference set to be returned, the preference set boolean field must be included in the request and set to True. So, the set of user preferences retrieved depends on the set of flags specified in the request. Specify only the flags you need to minimize the amount of data you retrieve.
All user preferences that can be returned in GetUserPreferences can be set with SetUserPreferences and many of them can be set in the My eBay page.
Inspect the properties of the returned containers to get the preference data for the authenticated user. As applicable, store the data (perhaps in a table), or display it to the user so that they can verify their current preferences.
Testing GetUserPreferences
You can test this call in the Sandbox. Before calling GetUserPreferences, create a test user in the Sandbox, then define user preferences for the user by either calling SetUserPreferences or by editing the preferences in the My eBay page for the user in the Sandbox. After setting the preferences, retrieve them with a call to GetUserPreferences, and verify that they match what you had set previously.

Standard Input Fields |
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. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
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. |

boolean | Conditionally |
This boolean field should be set to true in a SetUserPreferences call if the seller wishes to receive contact information for bidders who have bid on a seller's auction item, but did not win. This might be helpful to a seller if that seller wishes to proposed Second Chance Offers to these unsuccessful bidders if the seller has multiple, identical items, or if the winning bidder does not pay for the original auction item.

Applicable values: Code so that your app gracefully handles any future changes to this list. See Combined Invoice. |
DispatchCutoffTimePreference | DispatchCutoffTimePreferencesType | Conditionally |
Contains information about a seller's order cutoff time preferences for same-day shipping. If the seller specifies a value of '0' in Item.DispatchTimeMax to offer same-day handling when listing an item, the seller's shipping time commitment depends on the order cutoff time set for the listing site, as indicated by DispatchCutoffTimePreference.CutoffTime. Returned when ShowDispatchCutoffTimePreferences is included and set to true . Note: For sellers opted in to the feature that supports different order cutoff times for each business day, the order cutoff time returned in this container may not be accurate.

CutoffTime has a default initial value for each eBay site, but you can use SetUserPreferences to override the default for individual sellers. The default value for most eBay sites is 2:00PM local time. Enter times in 30 minute increments from the top of the hour. That is, enter values either on the hour (:00) or 30 minutes past the hour (:30). Other values will be rounded down to the next closest 30 minute increment.

As of April 1, 2019, 'GTC' is the only supported listing duration for all eBay marketplaces with the following exceptions:
With the 'GTC' listing duration, the listing will remain active as long as the listing shows that inventory is available for purchase (available quantity is '1' or more). For sellers listing motor vehicles on the eBay US Motors, eBay UK, or eBay Italy sites, it is recommended that the seller uses the GetCategoryFeatures call to retrieve the supported listing durations for their particular marketplace and category. Note: As long as a fixed-price listing has inventory available, or if the out-of-stock control feature is being used, GTC listings are automatically renewed each month according to the calendar day. AdType enumeration value represents Real Estate classified ads. This listing type is only used to solicit inquiries from interested parties. To express interest, a buyer fills in a contact form that eBay forwards to the seller as a lead. This format does not enable buyers and sellers to transact online through eBay, and eBay Feedback is not available for ad format listings. Non-Real Estate classified ads are only available in a limited number of eBay categories, including Business and Industrial categories, Travel, ans Specialty Services. Although listing durations may vary by eBay marketplace and category, typical listing durations for (non-Real Estate) classified ads are 30, 60, and 90 days. It is recommended that the seller uses the GetCategoryFeatures call to retrieve the actual listing durations that are supported for real estate ads on a particular marketplace and category. (Not all values in ListingTypeCodeType apply to this field.) Code so that your app gracefully handles any future changes to this list. |

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: (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: 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: If the source of the problem is within the application (such as a missing required element), change the application before you retry the request.
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. |
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. |
