Modified APIs

    If true, compresses the result into a new attribute in the result object.  The PagedItemInventoryResult JSON Object  has instructions on decoding the result if you turn compression on.
  • omitItemsOnHold
    If the account calling the API is a retailer, don't include items associated with a supplier when the supplier is on hold (is in on-boarding) - defaults to true, which is a  possibly non-backward compatible change to the data returned
  • clearQuantityForStoppedItems
    If the account calling the API is a retailer, set the availableQuantity to 0 and the status to out-of-stock for all items associated with suppliers that are currently stopped, which is a  possibly non-backward compatible change to the data returned
  • increased number of returned results
    The number of results returned with each page is increased.
  • fastMode irrelevant
    The API was re-written to be faster regardless of whether this mode is used or not.

    This attribute will contain the compressed results as a string if the API specified the results should be compressed.

    May be used instead of lastId to get the next page of results and will be the only way to get the next page of results sometime in 2019 as lastId has been deprecated.
  • deprecated pageNum, pageSize, pageCount, lastId
    These attributes will be removed sometime in early 2019.

122D12111122222211sco is adding additional server capacity to the Dscopublic API infrastructure effective 8/13/2016. This is purely an infrastructure release. No APIs have changed.

 This change should not affect api.dropship.com nor its IP address. However, we are making api.dropship.com point to a load balancer. You will want to work with your IT team to ensure any firewall rules continue to work after the switchover for any incoming Webhook API calls from that server as the incoming IP address may appear to be different to your firewall.

 IP address of api.dropship.com: 52.72.74.224

 Further, we are deprecating the api.dropship.com endpoint in favor of our new endpoint which is: api.dsco.io

 The IP address of the api.dsco.io endpoint is: 52.1.219.81

 We will continue to support the api.dropship.com endpoint until the end of Q1 2017 (March 31, 2017) after which it will be shut down, so please plan accordingly.
