VariationSpecificPictureSetType

Complex type used by the VariationSpecificPictureSet container that is returned for multiple-variation listings, and gives the URL(s) to one or more of the listing's images. Images submitted for multiple-variation listings must be based on the product aspect that is defined in the Variations.Pictures.VariationSpecificName field. This product aspect will often be 'Color', particularly when the listing features similar items available in different colors.

Fields

GalleryURL ( anyURI ) [0..1]
Not used by any call.

This field is no longer returned. Note that the first PictureURL shown in the response is the URL that is used as the 'Gallery URL' for that particular product variation.
See the Field Index to learn which calls use GalleryURL.

PictureURL ( anyURI ) [0..*]
The URL to one image of one variation of the multiple-variation listing. The image must be associated with the corresponding aspect name-value pair. So, if the corresponding VariationSpecificName value is 'Color', and the corresponding VariationSpecificValue value is 'Space Grey', each URL returned under the corresponding VariationSpecificPictureSet container should point to a picture that display the item in that particular color.

The URL(s) can point to an image (or images) stored on the eBay Picture Server, or it can be a URL to a self-hosted picture. Note that self-hosted pictures must be on a server that supports the 'https' protocol.

The first PictureURL shown in the response is the URL that is used as the 'Gallery URL' for that particular product variation.
See the Field Index to learn which calls use PictureURL.

VariationSpecificValue ( string ) [0..1]
This field shows the corresponding value of the product aspect that is shown in the the Variations.Pictures.VariationSpecificName field. For example, if the Variations.Pictures.VariationSpecificName value is 'Color', the value in this field will be one of the values that is shown in the Variations.VariationSpecificsSet.NameValueList container. So, if the Name field of that NameValueList container was 'Color', the value in the VariationSpecificPictureSet.VariationSpecificValue would have to be one of the defined colors for the multiple-variation listing.
See the Field Index to learn which calls use VariationSpecificValue.
