POST /ad_campaign/{campaign_id}/bulk_update_ads_bid_by_inventory_reference

This method works with listings created with either the Trading API or the Inventory API.

The method updates the bidPercentage values for a set of ads associated with the specified campaign.

Specify the campaign_id as a path parameter and supply a set of listing IDs with their associated updated bidPercentage values in the request body. An eBay listing ID is generated when a listing is created with the Trading API.

Get the campaign IDs for a seller by calling getCampaigns and call getAds to get a list of the seller's inventory reference IDs.

Note: This method only applies to the Cost Per Sale (CPS) funding model; it does not apply to the Cost Per Click (CPC) funding model. See Funding Models in the Promoted Listings Playbook for more information.

Path parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`campaign_id`	String	Yes	A unique eBay-assigned ID for an ad campaign that's generated when a campaign is created. Get a seller's campaign IDs by calling getCampaigns.

Request headers

Name	Type	Required	Description
`Content-Type`	String	Yes	The media type of the request body. Default value: "application/json"

Request body fields

Name	Type	Required	Description
`requests[]`	Array	No	A list of inventory reference ID and inventory reference type pairs, and the bid percentage, which the call uses to create ads in bulk.
`requests[].adGroupId`	String	No	Note: This field is not currently in use. Ad groups are only applicable to Promoted Listings Advanced (PLA) ad campaigns that use the Cost Per Click (CPC) funding model. See Funding Models in the Promoted Listings Playbook for more information.
`requests[].bidPercentage`	String	No	The user-defined bid percentage (also known as the ad rate) sets the level that eBay increases the visibility in search results for the associated listing. The higher the bidPercentage value, the more eBay promotes the listing. Required if the campaign's funding model is Cost Per Sale (CPS). The value specified here is also used to calculate the Promoted Listings fee. This percentage value is multiplied by the final sales price to determine the fee. The Promoted Listings fee is determined at the time the transaction completes and the seller is assessed the fee only when an item sells through a Promoted Listings ad campaign. The bidPercentage is a single precision value that is guided by the following rules: These values are valid: `4.1`, `5.0`, `5.5`, ... These values are not valid: `0.01`, `10.75`, `99.99`, and so on. This is default bid percentage for the campaigns using the Cost Per Sale (CPS) funding model, and this value will be overridden by any ads in the campaign that have their own set bid percentages. If a bid percentage is not provided for an ad, eBay uses the default bid percentage of the associated campaign. Minimum value: 2.0 Maximum value: 100.0
`requests[].inventoryReferenceType`	String	No	Indicates the type of item the inventoryReferenceId references. The item can be either an `INVENTORY_ITEM` or `INVENTORY_ITEM_GROUP`. You must always pair an inventoryReferenceId with and inventoryReferenceType. For implementation help, refer to eBay API documentation
`requests[].inventoryReferenceId`	String	No	An ID that identifies a single-item listing or multiple-variation listing that is managed with the Inventory API. The inventory reference ID is a seller-defined value that can be either an SKU for a single-item listing or an inventoryItemGroupKey for a multiple-value listing. An inventoryItemGroupKey is a value that the seller defines to indicate a listing that's the parent of an inventory item group (a multiple-variation listing, such as a listing for a shirt that's available in multiple sizes and colors). You must always specify both an inventoryReferenceId and an inventoryReferenceType to indicate an item that's managed with the Inventory API.
