Is it possible to retrieve Item Specifics by item with Browse API?

I know that is possible to retrieve Item Specifics of Item which authenticated seller own (such as Trading API/getItem), but not found how to that by Browse API.
In this case, [Item Specifics] I wanna retrieve is here. For example, it's like [Manufacturer Part Number] in accessories of eBay Mortors,
Also I wanna know that can't do this if it's not possible...
Any help is appreciated.

You can get via the browse API

https://api.ebay.com/buy/browse/v1/item/v1|ITEM_ID_HERE|0

It gives you complete item and you can get item specifics from there.

 

for example 

 

https://api.ebay.com/buy/browse/v1/item/v1|355420351639|0

 

you get something like this

The MPN is actually a product identifier, rather than an Item Specific, and can be returned by the Browse API.

https://developer.ebay.com/api-docs/buy/browse/resources/item/methods/getItem 

However, I don't see any method to retrieve "Item Specifics" for an item in the Browse API. 

While this can be done in the Shopping API, the Shopping API will be closed down within the year.

@znts-wholesale-global 

 

Thanks for that valuable information! I'll take a look this weekend, as I'll be converting from Finding & Shopping to Browse API very soon.

Thank you for your reply.
Indeed, I confirmed that it's possible to retrieve Item Specifics with GET-item/{item_id}.
I apologize lack of my confirmation...
