Misleading Release note related Data Kiosk API - Traffic - `lostFeaturedOffer`

[wolendranh]

According to release note

Added the lostFeaturedOffer to the Traffic data in the Vendor Analytics dataset, available in both the sourcingView and manufacturingView queries.

However there is no traffic data at all in SourcingView according to Vendor Analytics Dataset Use Case guide. And also traffic is missing from Schema Explorer.

• Was traffic data, specifically lostFeaturedOffer added to SourcingView in Data Kiosk API?
• Are docs simply outdated?

Looks like bad update, we are suffering with daily data sync since Dec 4, getting 99% of time HTTP 429, had to switch back to good old GET_SALES_AND_TRAFFIC_REPORT

Opened a support ticket, duplicating this here to gain attension...

Hello @wolendranh - Per the official release notes, the lostFeaturedOffer to the Traffic data in the Vendor Analytics dataset, available in the manufacturingView query only not in SourcingView query.

I am able to see the metric in Schema Explorer for manufacturingView

query MyQuery {
  analytics_vendorAnalytics_2024_09_30 {
    manufacturingView(
      aggregateBy: DAY
      endDate: ""
      startDate: ""
      currencyCode: ""
    ) {
      totals
      metrics {
        metrics {
          traffic {
            lostFeaturedOffer
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Can you please share where you saw SourcingView?

Proof:

and obviously docs were fixed after

@hinavinayak please take a closer look at the latest Data Kiosk Update, it's broken for Sellers, I opened a support case

[hinavinayak]

@monoteos - This is a vendor only data set. Not available for sellers. If you are making the request as a vendor or on-behalf of a vendor, developer support will be able to share the resolution with the details shared.

Understood on the docs update. Apologies for the miscommunication, will share feedback with our release team.

[monoteos]

@hinavinayak thank you for your reply, yes, I know that this is vendor only, but what I'm trying to emphasize here is that Dec 3 Release wasn't smooth for Data Kiosk, and Sellers part (analytics_salesAndTraffic_2024_04_24) was broken, and 5 days in a row we can't use it anymore, and switched back to GET_SALES_AND_TRAFFIC_REPORT Report API to get the same data

Hello @monoteos :)

Were you getting throttled for the DataKiosk endpoints? if so which endpoint was being throttled?

Or was it for a specific dataset?

[monoteos]

@chrisskhoury it was this dataset analytics_salesAndTraffic_2024_04_24/salesAndTrafficByAsin
