Tasks

  •   recommendations

    Returned with request version 609 and higher.



    Contains the most popular Item Specifics, if any, for a category
    specified in the request, or contains information about whether
    the recommendations have changed for that category since
    the LastUpdateTime you requested.



    The most relevant Item Specifics (as determined by eBay)
    are returned first. In many cases, the values are returned in
    alphabetical order.



    This node returns empty (or it’s not returned) for a category if
    there is no applicable data (such as when you request a parent category, a category that has no popular Item Specifics yet,
    or a duplicate category that was already returned).
    If you pass in the CategoryID and Name fields together, but no
    matching values are found for the name, eBay returns the name
    with no values (even if the name is not recommended).



    If GetCategoryFeatures indicates that custom Item Specifics are
    enabled for a leaf category, but GetCategorySpecifics doesn't
    return any recommendations for that category, the seller can still
    specify their own custom Item Specifics in that category.

  •   taskReferenceID

    all the Item Specifics recommendations available for the
    requested site ID. (The downloadFile call downloads a .zip file
    as an attachment.)



    Only returned when CategorySpecificsFileInfo is passed in the
