借助本地商品目录服务,您可以创建和更新本地商品目录资源的实例,其中包含的字段在不同的实体店位置可以具有不同的值。每个本地商品目录实例都是现有商品资源的子级,并从父资源继承商品数据字段。例如,某个商品在不同商店中的价格和数量可能不同,但在所有商店中共享一个 ID、描述和其他商品数据。本地产品目录数据用于本地 Google 平台呈现和本地产品目录广告计划。
您的 Merchant Center 账号必须加入本地计划:在 Google 各平台上展示本地商品详情或本地商品目录广告。如需详细了解如何通过 Content API 使用本地商品目录广告,请参阅本地商品目录广告使用入门。
本地商品目录服务会为现有的本地商品创建本地商品目录实例。您必须先使用 Content API products 服务或 Merchant Center datafeeds,通过将 channel 字段设置为 local 来创建本地商品。然后,您可以使用本地商品目录服务为销售该商品的每个商家资料 storecode 创建本地商品目录实例。

The local inventory service within the Merchant API allows creating and updating local inventory instances for physical store locations, linked to existing product resources. Prerequisites include setting up a Business Profile, linking it to Merchant Center, verifying the business, and enrolling in a local program. The service supports `localinventory.insert` to create a single instance and `localinventory.custombatch` for multiple instances and only `storeCode` and `productId` are required for all requests.\n"],null,["# Local inventory service\n\nThe local inventory service allows you to create and update instances of the\n[local inventory resource](/shopping-content/reference/rest/v2.1/localinventory#resource:-localinventory),\nwhich contain fields that can have different values\nfor different physical store locations. Each local inventory instance is a child\nof an existing [product resource](/shopping-content/reference/rest/v2.1/products#resource:-product),\nand inherits the product data fields from the\nparent resource. For example, you might have a product that has a different\nprice and quantity in different stores, but shares an ID, description, and other\nproduct data across all stores. Local inventory data is used for the\n[Local surfaces across Google](//support.google.com/merchants/answer/9825611)\nand [Local Inventory Ads](//support.google.com/merchants/answer/3057972)\nprograms.\n\nThis guide explains what you need before you start using the local inventory\nservice, describes the available fields and methods, and provides an example of\na service request.\n| **Note:** In v2.1 of the Content API, the local inventory service and supplemental feeds replace the inventory service in v2. To perform partial updates to non-local product data with API v2.1, use [supplemental feeds](/shopping-content/guides/products/supplemental-feeds). To make supplemental local product updates, use the [`localinventory`\n| service](/shopping-content/guides/products/local-inventory).\n\nPrerequisites\n-------------\n\n- In order to use the local inventory service, you must [create a Business Profile](//support.google.com/business/answer/6300717), [link your Business Profile to your Merchant Center account](/shopping-content/guides/how-tos/lia/link-gmb), [verify your business](//support.google.com/business/answer/6300716), and [set up your Business Profile store codes](//support.google.com/business/answer/4542487).\n- Your Merchant Center account must be enrolled in a local program: either\n **Local surfaces across Google** or **Local inventory ads** . For more\n information about using local inventory ads via the Content API, see\n [Get Started with Local Inventory Ads](/shopping-content/guides/how-tos/lia/get-started).\n\n | **Note:** If your Merchant Center account is not enrolled in a local program, setting a product's `channel` field to `local`, via the [`Products.insert`](/shopping-content/reference/rest/v2.1/products/insert) method, results in the error: \"\u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003echannel\u003c/var\u003e Invalid channel: local\".\n- The local inventory service creates local inventory instances for existing\n local products You must first create local products, using either the Content\n API [products](/shopping-content/reference/rest/v2.1/products) service or\n Merchant Center [datafeeds](//support.google.com/merchants/answer/7439882), by\n setting the `channel` field to `local`. You can then use the local inventory\n service to create local inventory instances for each Business Profile\n `storecode` where the product is sold.\n\nFields\n------\n\nEach local inventory instance contains a set of fields that is associated with a\nspecific store location via the `storeCode` field (which you define in your\nBusiness Profile). Only\n[`storecode`](/shopping-content/reference/rest/v2.1/localinventory#LocalInventory.FIELDS.store_code)\nand\n[`productId`](/shopping-content/reference/rest/v2.1/products#Product.FIELDS.id)\nare required for all requests. All other fields are optional:\n\n- Required for all requests: `storeCode`, `productId` (in URL)\n- Optional: `quantity`, `price`, `salePrice`, `salePriceEffectiveDate`, `availability`, `pickupMethod`, `pickupSla`, `instoreProductLocation`\n\nFor a complete list of local inventory fields and their descriptions, see the\n[localinventory](/shopping-content/reference/rest/v2.1/localinventory) reference\npage.\n\nMethods\n-------\n\nThe local inventory service only includes two methods:\n\n### localinventory.insert\n\n[`localinventory.insert`](/shopping-content/reference/rest/v2.1/localinventory/insert)\nallows you to create a local inventory instance for a single local product.\n\nThis example demonstrates how to use the local inventory service to\n[create an in-store sale](//support.google.com/merchants/answer/9017019) from\nFebruary 24th, 2021 at 1:00 pm (GMT-8) until February 28th, 2021 at 3:30pm\n(GMT-8). The request also updates the quantity available for the local inventory\ninstance. Unlike\n[supplemental feeds](/shopping-content/guides/products/supplemental-feeds)\nfor non-local product data, fields that are not included in the body of the\nrequest are overwritten by this call: \n\n POST https://shoppingcontent.googleapis.com/content/v2.1/\u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003emerchantId\u003c/var\u003e/products/\u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eproductId\u003c/var\u003e/localinventory\n\n {\n \"storeCode\": \"1235\",\n \"salePrice\": {\n \"value\": \"100.00\",\n \"currency\": \"USD\"\n },\n \"salePriceEffectiveDate\": \"2021-02-24T13:00-0800/2021-02-28T15:30-0800\",\n \"quantity\": 200,\n }\n\n### localinventory.custombatch\n\n[`localinventory.custombatch`](/shopping-content/reference/rest/v2.1/localinventory/custombatch)\nallows you to create multiple local inventory instances for a single\nlocal product in multiple stores, or create local inventory instances for\nmultiple local products.\n| **Note:** It is not possible to retrieve, list, or delete local inventory instances. To view local inventory data in Merchant Center, select a local product in the **All products** page and then expand the **Local inventory** section. The table displays the local inventory data for each store code."]]
