Instead of using the default strategy, you can choose to create a custom strategy and apply it to items in Marketplace by defining the necessary rules. > **Note**: This page describes an example using only the required parameters and inputs to create a new repricer strategy. For a full list of customization options and additional capabilities, refer to the [Marketplace Pricing API Reference](/us-marketplace/reference/createstrategy). # Endpoint ```Text bash POST https://marketplace.walmartapis.com/v3/repricer/strategy ``` # Sample request This request creates a Buy Box Optimization Strategy for Walmart Marketplace, designed to dynamically adjust product prices to win the Buy Box. The strategy is activated with the `enabled` parameter set to true and supports adjustments during promotions with `enableRepricerForPromotion` set to true. It also ensures that the product price reverts to the seller’s last submitted price when no competitor target is found, if `restoreSellerPriceWithoutTarget` is set to true. Additionally, it enables price matching with external competitors to beat Buy Box prices when `enableBuyboxMeetExternal` is set to true. The strategy uses a fixed `adjustmentValue` of $1.20 to compete for the Buy Box. ```Text cURL curl --request POST \ --url https://marketplace.walmartapis.com/v3/repricer/strategy \ --header 'WM_QOS.CORRELATION_ID: ' \ --header 'WM_SEC.ACCESS_TOKEN: ' \ --header 'WM_SVC.NAME: Walmart Marketplace' \ --header 'accept: application/json' \ --header 'content-type: application/json' \ --data ' { "repricerStrategy": "Buy Box Strategy For testing", "enabled": true, "enableRepricerForPromotion": true, "restoreSellerPriceWithoutTarget": true, "enableBuyboxMeetExternal": true, "strategies": [ { "strategyType": "Buy Box Price", "adjustmentType": "UNIT", "adjustmentValue": 1.2 } ] } ' ``` ```Text Python import requests import json url = "https://marketplace.walmartapis.com/v3/repricer/strategy" payload = json.dumps({ "repricerStrategy": "Buy Box Strategy For testing", "enabled": True, "enableRepricerForPromotion": True, "restoreSellerPriceWithoutTarget": True, "enableBuyboxMeetExternal": True, "strategies": [ { "strategyType": "Buy Box Price", "adjustmentType": "UNIT", "adjustmentValue": 1.2 } ] }) headers = { 'WM_QOS.CORRELATION_ID': '', 'WM_SEC.ACCESS_TOKEN': '', 'WM_SVC.NAME': 'Walmart Marketplace', 'accept': 'application/json', 'content-type': 'application/json' } response = requests.request("POST", url, headers=headers, data=payload) print(response.text) ``` ## Modify your code To create a repricer strategy, update the necessary parameters in the request to reflect the changes you want. For example: * Strategy Name - Modify the `repricerStrategy` field to reflect a new name for the strategy. * Price Change - If the adjustment value needs to change, update `adjustmentValue` with a new number. For instance, increase the adjustment to $1.50 if you want a higher margin for the Buy Box. * Enable/Disable Features - Toggle the features by setting `enabled`, `enableRepricerForPromotion`, and other flags to true or false based on your requirements. * Use a unique `WM_QOS.CORRELATION_ID` for each request. * Replace with `WM_SEC.ACCESS_TOKEN` with the actual value for access token. # Sample response Once the request is processed, the API creates the strategy and returns a unique strategy ID, confirming successful implementation. ```Text JSON { "strategyId": "STR-987654321", "status": "CREATED", "message": "Buy Box Optimization Strategy successfully created." } ``` # Result If successful, the API response returns an `HTTP status: 200 OK` with a JSON response. * Walmart’s repricer will adjust the product price dynamically to secure the Buy Box. * Prices will fluctuate by ±$1.20 based on Buy Box competition. * If there’s no competitor price, the seller’s last submitted price is restored. * External marketplace prices may be considered for competitive adjustments. # Rate limits If you submit too many feeds in a short period of time, you may exceed Walmart’s rate limits and receive HTTP 429 (Too Many Requests) responses. For more details on throttling and best practices, refer to the [Rate Limiting Guide](/us-marketplace/docs/rate-limiting). # Error responses The following table outlines the potential causes of request errors, including the corresponding error messages, codes, and sample responses.
