Bibliotecas cliente

En este enfoque para interactuar con la API de Merchant, se usan las bibliotecas prediseñadas que encapsulan los detalles de bajo nivel para realizar solicitudes y controlar respuestas, lo que ofrece una forma más conveniente y, a menudo, idiomática del lenguaje para interactuar con la API. Manejan la autenticación, la serialización y deserialización de solicitudes y respuestas, y otro código estándar.

Paso 1: Configura la autenticación y los ejemplos de código

Para obtener instrucciones, consulta Configuración de la autenticación y muestras de configuración para la API de Merchant.

Paso 2: Descarga e instala la biblioteca cliente y los ejemplos de código

Para obtener instrucciones sobre cómo descargar e instalar la biblioteca cliente y usar las muestras de código de GitHub, consulta Muestras de Python de la API de Google Merchant.

Paso 3: Registrarse como desarrollador

Para usar la API de Merchant, debes registrar tu información de contacto de desarrollador.

El registro permite hacer lo siguiente:

  • Crea un contacto técnico para tu cuenta de Merchant Center asignando el rol de API developer a un usuario. Esto permite que Google envíe actualizaciones importantes específicamente sobre la API y las funciones que usa el desarrollador, como anuncios de servicio e información sobre funciones nuevas, que podrían ser de menor interés para los no desarrolladores.
  • Te permite trabajar con varias cuentas del comerciante sin tener que registrarte varias veces. Cuando te registras, el ID del proyecto de Google Cloud que se usa para la autenticación en la API de Merchant se asocia con tu cuenta de Merchant Center, que tiene los contactos técnicos (los API developer). De esta manera, puedes recibir actualizaciones importantes para todas las cuentas de comerciante que administras, siempre y cuando la autenticación se realice con el proyecto de Google Cloud registrado.

Cuando te registres, observa los requisitos previos y las restricciones que se detallan en Registro.

Para ver un ejemplo de cómo registrar tu proyecto con bibliotecas cliente, consulta el ejemplo de cómo registrar un proyecto de Google Cloud y proporcionar una dirección de correo electrónico del desarrollador con Python:

    developer_email: The email address of the developer to register.
  """
  # Get OAuth credentials.
  credentials = generate_user_credentials.main()

  # Create a client to the Developer Registration Service.
  client = DeveloperRegistrationServiceClient(credentials=credentials)

  # The name has the format: accounts/{account}/developerRegistration
  name = f"accounts/{account_id}/developerRegistration"

  # Create the request to register the GCP project.
  request = RegisterGcpRequest(
      name=name,
      developer_email=developer_email,
  )

  # Make the API call and handle potential errors.
  try:
    print("Sending RegisterGcp request:")
    response = client.register_gcp(request=request)
    print("Registered GCP project successfully:")
    print(response)
  except RuntimeError as e:
    print(f"An error occurred: {e}")


if __name__ == "__main__":

  # Your Merchant Center account ID.
  # This can be found in the Merchant Center UI.
  _account_id = configuration.Configuration().read_merchant_info()

  # The developer email to associate with the GCP project.
  _developer_email = "YOUR_EMAIL_HERE"

  register_gcp(_account_id, _developer_email)

Paso 4: Administra los permisos y los contactos de desarrolladores

Cuando te registres, ocurrirá lo siguiente:

  • Si la dirección de correo electrónico pertenece a un usuario de la cuenta de Merchant Center, a ese usuario se le otorga el rol de API_DEVELOPER.
  • Si la dirección de correo electrónico no pertenece a un usuario existente, se envía una invitación a esa dirección. El destinatario debe aceptar la invitación para agregarse como usuario nuevo con el rol de API_DEVELOPER.

Después del registro inicial, te recomendamos que agregues varios desarrolladores y les otorgues derechos de acceso adicionales.

Paso 4a: Otorga permisos adicionales

El rol de API_DEVELOPER es necesario para recibir notificaciones importantes, pero tiene permisos mínimos en Merchant Center. Para permitir que este usuario realice otras llamadas a la API o administre la configuración en la IU de Merchant Center, debes otorgarle roles adicionales, como STANDARD o ADMIN. Para obtener más información, consulta Tipos de acceso.

Puedes actualizar los derechos de acceso de un usuario con el método accounts.users.patch.

El código de ejemplo muestra cómo actualizar un usuario para otorgarle los roles de ADMIN y API_DEVELOPER. Esto les permite administrar completamente la cuenta y también recibirán comunicaciones relacionadas con la API.

if __name__ == "__main__":
  # Modify this email to update the right user
  email = "USER_MAIL_ACCOUNT"
  access_right = AccessRight.ADMIN
  update_user(email, access_right)


Paso 4b Agrega desarrolladores de copias de seguridad

Para evitar que se interrumpa tu acceso a la API si tu contacto principal de desarrollador deja tu organización, debes agregar al menos un desarrollador de respaldo.

Puedes agregar un usuario con el método accounts.users.create o actualizar uno existente con el método accounts.users.patch. Te recomendamos que le otorgues a este usuario los roles de ADMIN y API_DEVELOPER.

Paso 5: Crea una fuente de datos de productos principal

Antes de insertar un producto, necesitas una fuente de datos de productos principal. Para ver un ejemplo de código que crea una fuente de datos, consulta Ejemplo de cómo crear una fuente de datos de productos principal que admita varios idiomas con Python.
