ItemSearch

Description
The ItemSearch operation returns items that satisfy the search criteria, including one or more search
indices.
ItemSearch returns up to ten search results at a time. When condition equals "All," ItemSearch
returns up to three offers per condition (if they exist), for example, three new, three used, three refurbished,
and three collectible items. Or, for example, if there are no collectible or refurbished offers, ItemSearch
returns three new and three used offers.
Because there are thousands of items in each search index, ItemSearch requires that you specify the
value for at least one parameter in addition to a search index. The additional parameter value must
reference items within the specified search index. For example, you might specify a browse node
(BrowseNode is an ItemSearch parameter), Harry Potter Books, within the Books product category.
You would not get results, for example, if you specified the search index to be Automotive and the browse
node to be Harry Potter Books. In this case, the parameter value is not associated with the search index
value.
The ItemPage parameter enables you to return a specified page of results. The maximum ItemPage
number that can be returned is 10. An error is returned if you try to access higher numbered pages. If
you do not include ItemPage in your request, the first page will be returned by default. There can be up
to ten items per page.
