Check the inventory of catalog items using Partner Center APIs

How to check the inventory for a specific set of catalog items.

Prerequisites

  • Credentials as described in Partner Center authentication. This scenario supports authentication with both standalone App and App+User credentials.

  • One or more product IDs. Optionally, SKU IDs can also be specified.

  • Any additional context needed for verifying the inventory of the SKU(s) referenced by the provided product/SKU ID(s). These requirements might vary by type of product/SKU and can be determined from the SKU's InventoryVariables property.

C#

To check the inventory, build an InventoryCheckRequest object using an InventoryItem object for each item to be checked. Then, use an IAggregatePartner.Extensions accessor, scope it down to Product and then select the country/region using the ByCountry() method. Finally, call the CheckInventory() method with your InventoryCheckRequest object.

IAggregatePartner partnerOperations;
string customerId;
string subscriptionId;
string countryCode;
string productId;

// Build the inventory check request details object.
var inventoryCheckRequest = new InventoryCheckRequest()
{
    TargetItems = new InventoryItem[]{ new InventoryItem { ProductId = productId } },
    InventoryContext = new Dictionary<string, string>()
    {
      { "customerId", customerId },
      { "azureSubscriptionId", subscriptionId }
      { "armRegionName", armRegionName }
    }
};

// Get the inventory results.
var inventoryResults = partnerOperations.Extensions.Product.ByCountry(countryCode).CheckInventory(inventoryCheckRequest);

Partners are encouraged to continue to use the Partner Center REST APIs.

REST response

If successful, the response body contains a collection of InventoryItem objects populated with the restriction details, if any apply.

Note

If an input InventoryItem represents an item that could not be found in the catalog, it will not be included in the output collection.

Response success and error codes

Each response comes with an HTTP status code that indicates success or failure and additional debugging information. Use a network trace tool to read this code, error type, and additional parameters. For the full list, see Partner Center error codes.
