The second use case in the eBay business scenario is process monitoring. This page describes the related tasks and the operations you use in the eBay connector and the other ESB connectors.
Overview
The flow for process monitoring is illustrated in the following diagram. The ESB connectors for TradeGecko and Campaign Monitor will be used to connect to each service.

- First, let's monitor sold items. Retrieve details of selling status "Sold Items" from eBay using the getMyeBaySelling operation. This operation retrieves information on the quantity sold and the buyer's name and email address. The sold items retrieved are for the specified day.
- In TradeGecko, update the stock details (quantity) retrieved from eBay using the createStockAdjustment operation.
- In Campaign Monitor, feed the buyer's contact details retrieved from eBay into campaigns as subscriptions using the addSubscribersToLists operation in order to subscribe for future campaign drafts.
- Now, let's monitor active items. Retrieve details of selling status "Active Items" from eBay using the getMyeBaySelling operation, after which you can retrieve the unsold items using the getItem operation. Items are considered unsold when the whole listed item quantity sold is '0'. (For example, Listed items Quantity = 10, Available Quantity = 10, and Sold Quantity = 0).
- In Campaign Monitor, create a campaign for all those unsold items using the createCampaignFromTemplate operation.
