eBay API affiliation: No affiliate link in API respons
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
I'm trying to use the eBay API to retrieve affiliation links through their search API service. I can make calls to the API and get the expected results but all links I get in return are standard links instead of affiliate links.
I have tried to make calls with two different endpoints:
http://open.api.ebay.com/shopping?callname=FindProducts&responseencoding=XML&appid=MY_APP_ID&siteid=0&QueryKeywords=nvidia&version=967&trackingId=MY_TRACKING_ID&MaxEntries=20&networkId=0
http://svcs.ebay.com/services/search/FindingService/v1?OPERATION-NAME=findItemsByKeywords&SERVICE-VERSION=1.0.0&SECURITY-APPNAME=MY_APP_ID&GLOBAL-ID=EBAY-US&keywords=rtx+2080+ti&paginationInput.entriesPerPage=3&trackingId=MY_TRACKING°ID&networkId=9
In both cases I get the results I had expected but links are standard links like this one:
[viewItemURL] => http://www.ebay.com/itm/EVGA-Geforce-RTX-2080-Ti-XC-ULTRA-Brand-New-HAND-FAST-SHIPPING-/292812915006
I'm probably missing something but I can't see what's wrong. Do you have any idea?
Thanks

Affiliate tracking parameters are different for Shopping API and Finding API.
For Finding, I think you need to use "&affiliate.networkId=9", etc.
For Shopping, just don't use the FindProducts call at all; it's broken. Use the corresponding call from the Finding API instead.
