Catalog API: Migration Period Ending September 15th
Hey Publishers,
July 1, 2009 we retired our old Catalog API, ending support of this platform. The old Catalog API platform will NO LONGER be accessible beyond 11:59pm PST September 14, 2009.
To incorporate sponsored shopping content through the Shopzilla Publisher Program Catalog API beyond September 15th, you must utilize our new Catalog API platform.
The majority of our Catalog API users have completed migration to the new Catalog API platform. We've made efforts to reach out to each of your individually, and have received much feedback through the course of the migration, implementing several of the features requested. For tips to help complete your migration, and news on future developments, please tune into the Catalog API section of our blog.
For those of you who are not familiar with our Catalog API, this product provides advanced publishers with intuitive access to BizRate's inventory of cataloged products and merchant offers through a query-based web service accepting various parameters, allowing publishers to filter based on their website's shopping content needs. Based on these publisher-supplied parameters, customized BizRate shopping content is returned within an XML response.
As always, please do not hesitate to contact us should you have any questions, particularly as it relates to your migration to the new Catalog API.
The Shopzilla Publisher Team
