The purpose of this page is to describe in details the process of full update of the offers on MIRAKL.

We are able to send updates to an offer using the call for creating an offer, but we need to specify the value in update_delete field to be equal to “update“ ( "update_delete": "update")

  • POST OF01 - Import a file to add offers

API Call: /api/offers/imports

API Docs: https://help.mirakl.net/help/api-doc/seller/mmp.html#OF01

We will have to split the feeds into two. First case is to pick all products for full update with Protect Price = No this way we include all fields in the xml.

Mirakl Field Mirakl Notes Required Hemi Field Hemi Note
sku The offer’s unique identifier in the shop - Required - Maximum 40 characters, no "/" character Yes Product >SKU
product-id Unique product identifier for a given product-id-type - Required at offer creation - Maximum 40 characters Yes Product Account > Marketplace EAN

Decimal number; a period is used to separate cents | Yes | Product Account > Start Price OR Product Account> RRP | we send Product Account > RRP If RRP is populated and is bigger than Price | | price-additional-info | | | Information regarding the price of the offer. Check with your operator if this information appears on the front. Character string limited to 100 characters | No | | | | quantity | | | The quantity available in stock (maximum: one billion). Integer greater than or equal to 0 | No | Product Account > Quantity | | | min-quantity-alert | | | | | N/A | | | state | | | The state code of the offer The accepted values are defined from the Mirakl back office | Yes | Product > Condition | Mapping to our conditions:

yyyy-MM-dd or

yyyy-MM-ddThh:mm:ss+00   | No | N/A | | | available-end-date | | | The last day the offer is available. The offer has no end date if blank.

yyyy-MM-dd or

yyyy-MM-ddThh:mm:ss+00 | No | N/A | | | discount-price | | | | No | Product Account > Price | If RRP > Price

  1. If there are discount dates imported in Hemi we use them
  2. If there are no dates imported in Hemi we use the default dates (Now) and (Now + 2y) If RRP <= Price 3.We include the discount fields with empty values | | discount-start-date | | | | No | Product Account Secret Sales> Discount Start Date | If RRP > Price and If we do not specify any dates in the relevant fields we hardcoded current date (“NOW“) Date format - 2017-02-20T10:45:53+01 If RRP <= Price We include the discount fields with empty values | | discount-end-date | | | | No | Product Account Secret Sales> Discount End Date | If RRP > Price and If we do not specify any dates in the relevant fields we hardcode current date + 2 year (“NOW“ +2y) Date format - 2017-02-20T10:45:53+01 If RRP <= Price We include the discount fields with empty values | | update-delete | | | Used only in "Normal" import mode. Update mode is used if blank. "", "update", "delete" | No | N/A | |

Second case is to pick all products for full update with Protect Price = Yes this way we exclude all price fields from the xml.

This is required because we either must have a feed with prices or a feed without prices otherwise MIRAKL will return an error.

We are able to send updates to products in 2 cases. Once the product listing status is Active and Inactive(i.e. after successfully zero stock updates)

We pick the offer for update when we have:

Product status **= Product Published ; Listing Status **= Active/Inactive; List/Update the whole item = Pending If we send the offer for update successfully we set: Product status **= Product Published ; Listing Status **= Active/Inactive; List/Update the whole item = Sent

Once we receive success, we need to set following statuses:

Product status = Product Published; **Listing Status =Active/Inactive; List/Update the whole item = Not Needed**

If we receive an error we will have:

Product status **= Product Published ; Listing Status **= Active/Inactive; List/Update the whole item = Error

(The error need to be stored into Update item error field.)

Example Response:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<offer_import_tracking>
    <import_id>2035</import_id>
    <product_import_id>2036</product_import_id>
</offer_import_tracking>

After each successfully send feed for creation we will receive the feed id from the response and need to store it in Marketplace Feeds table.

Mirakl Field Hemi Field Comment
import_id Marketplace Feed > External ID
Marketplace Feed > Account For which account is the feed generated.
Marketplace Feed > Type Hardcoded as “Offer Update“
Marketplace Feed > Submitted Date When the feed is submitted
Marketplace Feed > Sent Objects Count How many products we have pushed in the feed
Marketplace Feed > Completed Date When the feed is completed

Please note we will also add the feed objects which after processing need to be removed.

  • GET OF02 - Get information and statistics about an offer import

API Call: /api/offers/imports/{import}

API Docs: https://help.mirakl.net/help/api-doc/seller/mmp.html#OF02

Parameter Integration Notes / Value Required
import Import identifier Yes

Using this call, we are able to check the status of the imported file.

Example Response:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<import>
    <date_created>2019-04-01T15:16:31Z</date_created>
    <error_report>false</error_report>
    <import_id>2035</import_id>
    <lines_in_error>0</lines_in_error>
    <lines_in_pending>0</lines_in_pending>
    <lines_in_success>1</lines_in_success>
    <lines_read>1</lines_read>
    <mode>NORMAL</mode>
    <offer_deleted>0</offer_deleted>
    <offer_inserted>1</offer_inserted>
    <offer_updated>0</offer_updated>
    <status>COMPLETE</status>
</import>

OF02 call is returning the response for the actual offer import (all offers).

Based on the response, we will need to check if we have to continue with the error report (if "error_report": true ) we continue with OF03, otherwise we treat it as success.

Success case:

Product status = Product Published and Listing Status = Active/Inactive and List/Update the whole item =Not Needed

Error case: If "error_report": true this means there is an error and we need to reach each of the reports in order to check for which item and what is the error.

Product status = Product Published ; Listing Status = Active/Inactive; List/Update the whole item = Error

and we need to store the relevant error in Product Account > Update Item Error field

  • GET OF03 - Get the error report file for an offer import

In order to check if there are any errors related to the products, into imported file we should use the GET OF03 API Call.

API Call: /api/offers/imports/{import}/error_report

API Docs: https://help.mirakl.net/help/api-doc/seller/mmp.html#OF03

As described above, this response give us detailed report of the SKUs and the actual SKUs errors are in the “error-message“  which we store in the Product Account >Update Item Error

Additional Information:

For this integration we will need to make sure the protect flags are working as expected:

Protect Quantity (Stop all quantity updates) If Protect Quantity = Yes and List/Update the Whole Item = Pending - We pick the product for full update but do NOT include the quantity in the payload

Protect the whole item - (Stop all product updates apart from Quantity) If Protect the whole item = Yes and List/Update the Whole Item = Pending - We skip the product

Closed -will stop all the updates to the MPs
