Inventory Feeds

Pre-requisites

• You should have knowledge of Global Inventory
• You should understand how our GraphQL API works and how to interact with GraphQL API.

What are Inventory Feeds?

An Inventory Feed enables customers to export Inventory availability views on schedules and into their own storage location. The export is in a format that is easy to integrate into any other system that wants a view of Inventory Availability.

An Inventory Feed will run on a set schedule (configurable via API). Each time a feed runs, it will export the updated data since the last run. This data is replicated via AWS S3 Cross-Account Replication into the Customers' target AWS S3 storage bucket.

For more information on the technical aspect, see How do Inventory Feeds work.

What is the Inventory Feeds API?

The Inventory Feeds API is how a configuration user will interact with and manage the setup of an Inventory Feed. This API is within our GraphQL Schema and allows users to create, update, and manage Inventory Feeds. 

Via the API, you can:

• Create a new Inventory Feed
• Update an Inventory Feed
• Manage different Inventory Feed runs
• Manage the schedules of Inventory Feeds

For further details on setting up and managing Inventory Feeds, including possible configuration, see Inventory Feeds User Guides.
