管理 Merchant Center 服务条款协议

如需使用 Merchant Center 及其功能，您必须接受商家所在地区的 Merchant Center 服务条款 (ToS)。这些协议概述了使用 Merchant Center 服务的法律条款。

本指南介绍了如何使用 Merchant API 管理这些协议，无论是针对您自己的账号，还是针对您作为第三方提供商 (3P) 管理的账号。

您可以实现以下目标：

  • 检查账号的当前服务条款协议状态。
  • 引导商家接受必要的服务条款。
  • 以第三方提供商的身份管理客户账号或独立账号的服务条款。

前提条件

如需使用 Merchant API，您需要拥有 Merchant Center 账号。使用 Merchant Center 界面 (UI) 创建账号后，您可以使用该界面或 API 对账号进行更改（例如，更新商家信息、管理用户等）。

如果您需要管理多个账号，可以使用 Merchant API 创建客户账号。请参阅创建和管理子账号。

检查账号的服务条款协议状态

在商家能够充分利用 Merchant Center 之前，或者在您需要验证其当前协议状态时，您可以检索其服务条款协议的状态。

使用 termsOfServiceAgreementStates.retrieveForApplication 方法获取核心 Merchant Center 应用的服务条款协议状态。 此方法会返回您当前的《服务条款》（如有），并且如果自您上次接受《服务条款》以来《服务条款》已更新，则会返回您需要接受的最新版本。

以下是示例请求：

GET https://merchantapi.googleapis.com/accounts/v1beta/accounts/{ACCOUNT_ID}/termsOfServiceAgreementStates:retrieveForApplication

如果调用成功，则会返回 TermsOfServiceAgreementState 资源。此资源包含：

  • name：相应协议状态的标识符。
  • regionCode：相应协议状态适用的国家/地区，通常是账号的营业国家/地区。
  • termsOfServiceKind：这将为 MERCHANT_CENTER。
  • accepted：账号已接受的服务条款版本的详细信息，包括 termsOfService 资源名称（例如 termsOfService/132）以及接受者 acceptedBy。如果服务条款有较新版本，还可能包含 validUntil 日期。required
  • required：账号必须接受的服务条款版本的详细信息。这包括 termsOfService 资源名称和指向人类可读的 ToS 文档的 tosFileUri。

示例回答：

{
  "name": "accounts/{ACCOUNT_ID}/termsOfServiceAgreementStates/MERCHANT_CENTER-{REGION_CODE}",
  "regionCode": "{REGION_CODE}",
  "termsOfServiceKind": "MERCHANT_CENTER",
  "accepted": {
    "termsOfService": "termsOfService/132",
    "acceptedBy": "accounts/{ACCOUNT_ID}"
  },
  "required": {
    "termsOfService": "termsOfService/132",
    "tosFileUri": "https://www.google.com/intl/{REGION_CODE}/policies/merchants/terms/"
  }
}

如果新的服务条款为 required，您应引导商家接受该服务条款。

以下是一个示例，可用于检索特定账号和国家/地区的服务条款协议状态：

接受服务条款

商家必须接受最新版《服务条款》，才能继续使用 Merchant Center 功能。

为自己的账号接受服务条款

如果您自行管理 Merchant Center 账号，请执行以下操作：

  1. 调用 termsOfServiceAgreementStates.retrieveForApplication 以确定是否有任何 ToS 为 required。
  2. 如果需要服务条款，请记下 required 字段中的 termsOfService 名称（例如 termsOfService/132）。

  3. 调用 termsOfService.accept 以接受服务条款。您需要提供服务条款名称、您的 ACCOUNT_ID 以及 retrieveForApplication 返回的 regionCode。

    以下是示例请求：

    POST https://merchantapi.googleapis.com/accounts/v1beta/{name={termsOfService/VERSION}}:accept
{
  "account": "accounts/{ACCOUNT_ID}",
  "regionCode": "{REGION_CODE}"
}

    如果调用成功，则返回空的响应正文，并更新账号的《服务条款》同意状态。

引导商家接受服务条款（针对第三方提供商）

如果您是为其他商家管理独立 Merchant Center 账号的第三方提供商 (3P)，则不得代表这些商家接受服务条款。您应该：

  1. 检索最新的服务条款：针对商家的 regionCode 和 MERCHANT_CENTER 类调用 termsOfService.retrieveLatest，以获取他们可能需要接受的最新服务条款版本的详细信息。

    请求示例：

    GET https://merchantapi.googleapis.com/accounts/v1beta/termsOfService:retrieveLatest?regionCode={REGION_CODE}&kind=MERCHANT_CENTER

    示例响应：

    {
    "name": "{termsOfService/VERSION}",
    "regionCode": "{REGION_CODE}",
    "kind": "MERCHANT_CENTER",
    "fileUri": "https://www.google.com/intl/{REGION_CODE}/policies/merchants/terms/"
}

  2. 显示服务条款：使用响应中的 fileUri 在应用界面中向商家显示服务条款的全文。

  3. 获得商家接受：商家必须在您的界面中明确同意相关条款。

  4. 使用 API 记录接受情况：商家接受后，使用第 1 步中获取的 ToS 的 name、商家的 ACCOUNT_ID 和其 regionCode 调用 termsOfService.accept。

    请求示例：

    POST https://merchantapi.googleapis.com/accounts/v1beta/{name={termsOfService/VERSION}}:accept
{
  "account": "accounts/{MERCHANT_ACCOUNT_ID}",
  "regionCode": "{REGION_CODE}"
}

第三方提供商须特别注意的事项

作为第三方提供商，您可以管理客户账号或独立账号的服务条款。

管理客户账号的服务条款

如果您运营高级账号 并为不同的商家创建客户账号：

  • 高级账号接受：如果高级账号向客户账号提供账号汇总服务，则高级账号接受的服务条款也将适用于所有使用该服务的客户账号。
  • 显示和征得同意：即使高级账号的接受范围涵盖客户账号，最好还是向每个客户账号的实际企业主显示相关的 Google Merchant Center 服务条款（这可能也是法律要求）。即使接受条款的 API 调用是在高级账号级别进行的，您也必须征得其明确同意，确保其理解并同意这些条款。
  • 检查客户账号状态：在特定客户账号中使用 termsOfServiceAgreementStates.retrieveForApplication 验证其服务条款状态，并查看其是否受高级账号协议的约束，或者是否需要采取任何直接措施。

管理独立账号的服务条款

如引导商家接受服务条款中所述，当您协助商家创建或管理独立的 Merchant Center 账号时，该商家（账号所有者）必须亲自接受服务条款。为此，您需要检索并显示服务条款，然后在用户通过您的界面明确表示同意后，代表用户调用 termsOfService.accept 方法。
