(Who can) Add commerce.taxonomy scope to my API token request? (for Categories for Item Listing)

[nyccortez]

Can I get my app approved for the scope necessary to use the category functionality of the sell API?

As described on this page:

https://developer.ebay.com/api-docs/sell/static/metadata/sell-categories.htmlz

My current scopes, which are working fine, are:
scopes: [
"https://api.ebay.com/oauth/api_scope/sell.inventory",
"https://api.ebay.com/oauth/api_scope/sell.fulfillment",
"https://api.ebay.com/oauth/api_scope/sell.account"
],

I think the one i need to add is

https://api.ebay.com/oauth/api_scope/commerce.taxonomy

but i'm not even sure that's right... it's not in my list of granted scopes, so i need it added to my application. And I fail the token exchange if I add it, so I know it's not available/allowed as is.

Ideas? Has anyone else encountered this issue?

Thanks!

Hi @nyccortez,

Taxonomy API calls require an Application Access Token created with the client credentials grant flow, using the scope "https://api.ebay.com/oauth/api_scope".

You can check the "OAuth scope" section in the API documentation to get the information on required access token and scope for the call.
