  • Important Update: eBay's API integrations will be modified to address data handling requirements for select developers. Usernames will be replaced with immutable user IDs, and financial data will be protected for certain users. Learn more here.
  • API License Agreement Update: We have made significant enhancements to our API License Agreement, including detailed data protection measures and compliance with international regulations. Important restrictions have been applied to the use of Restricted APIs and AI content. Developers must review the updated agreement to ensure compliance.

Note: For additional information about keypairs and creating Message Signatures, refer to Digital Signatures for APIs.
