Create Seller

Use this request to create a seller record.

If you want to create a permanent record of a seller's details, use the Seller API to create it.

📘

Information

If you do not want to store the seller's details, you can use the Transaction API to create the required seller information directly in the same request as the transaction.

For more information about the settings, see General Settings for a Seller.

For a list of the available fields, see Seller Settings Reference Guide.

To create the seller, use a POST method and the following URL:

{service_uri}/marketplace/v1/sellers

where {service_uri} is the service's URI.

For example:

$ curl \
    -H "x-marketplace-token: ms_{ACCESS_TOKEN}" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -X POST \
    --data '{JSON}' \
    https://sellers-api.sandbox.marketplace.taxamo.com/marketplace/v1/sellers

where:

  • {ACCESS_TOKEN} is your access token used for authentication.
  • {JSON} is the body of the request where you specify the seller's details.
