My goal is to be able to list products to be sold. And then delist them if needed. I understand there are several steps in between creating an inventory associating a product with inventory, etc. I would like to know the steps in order, and the minimum steps required to complete to make a product listed on ebay.
I think it would be best to use the new API, rather than the old one. Unless the old API will be supported for a few more years, and would be easier and better for my purposes. I'm just listing one item at a time.
I do like the options to determine a category to list to , and pricing suggestions, so It seems like the new API has that and the old one doesn't. It would be nice to include them but not require them in the step by step.
I have been using the Oauth with the sandbox, but have a lot of trouble with that. So I'd just like to do some testing with the production.
I have used the API Explorer to createNew Inventory Items, and then I can get items and see the ones I have created.
I just don't know how to see those on EBay's front end. Where would I look to see Items I have listed.

Hi @ccspos
The basic flow of using the Inventory API to publish an single-variation offer involves the use of the following three calls:
For more details please see "From inventory item to eBay marketplace offer" Guide.
You can use the Taxonomy API to to discover which categories are available for a marketplace, then enable the seller or buyer to iterate through subsets of those categories, or to enter key words and phrases for category suggestions from eBay.
