Creating Walmart Items via Unified

Unified provides a platform for creating structured product listings on Walmart Marketplace by using a data model called commerce_item, which involves understanding and accurately providing key fields such as type, global_code, and metadata. The type determines the subcategory and required metadata, with 76 supported categories ranging from electronics to home goods. Metadata is a dynamic array tailored to each subcategory, and Unified's API can list these fields to assist sellers. For instance, animal accessories might include fields like animalType and petSize, while computers could include processorType and screenSize. Despite Unified's capability to structure and submit detailed data, Walmart’s GET and LIST APIs only return a subset of this data, focusing on basic identifiers and core logistical information due to the high-level overview nature of these endpoints, which may omit many category-specific attributes.
