Anytime you submit an item to Walmart, whether it is Bulk Item Update, Item Setup, Price Updates, Return Updates, Inventory Updates, Lag Time Updates, and so on, you’ll receive a Feed ID in response. For example, feedId: 882DAFBDCAA0480786D1E0435FBC86D7@AU8BAgA.

Similarly, once you submit an item setup or item maintenance, you’ll receive a Feed ID in response so you can track the status. Use the Feeds APIs to get the feed status and the status of the item in the feed.

All feed statuses

Use the All feed statuses API request to view feed statuses for all the specified Feed IDs. The feedStatus parameter indicates whether a feed was processed or not. PROCESSED indicates a successful feed and ERROR indicates the feed wasn’t processed due to errors.

Feed item status

Use the All item status API request to view feed status and item status for a specified Feed ID. The feed status indicates whether a feed was processed or not. PROCESSED indicates a successful feed and ERROR indicates the feed wasn’t processed due to errors. The item status is shown within the ingestionStatus parameter. PROCESSED indicates the item was successfully submitted and ERROR indicates the item wasn’t submitted due to errors.

Get feed error report

Use the Get Feed Error Report API request to download a detailed error report for a submitted feed.

This API supports error report download for the following feeds:

• FITMENT_ACES
• FITMENT_PIES

If the submitted feed failed to process or processed without ingestion errors, this API responds with a status code 204 and returns nothing in the response body.

If the submitted feed processed with ingestion error(s), this API responds with a status code 200 and returns a zipped .csv file which contains the detailed error messages

Items on hold

When you're creating or converting items to WFS, your items may be placed on a Compliance Hold. You can identify items on Compliance Hold by checking the status of your feeds using the Feed Status APIs. Once an item is on Compliance Hold, you may utilize the Items On Hold API to gain more insights into the state of your item.

The Items on Hold API response shows the item status – In Review, Action Needed, or Prohibited. If your item is in Action Needed status, error descriptions show what additional actions are needed to move your items out of this status.
