Stock Inventory Feed
The Stock Inventory feed allows a GET request which returns a simple XML feed of the retailer's live SKUs on Fruugo to allow you to map the status of the product in your own system. It will provide you with our internal Fruugo Sku Id; retailers Product Id; retailers Sku Id; product title; availability status; and if provided to us it will return the quantity of items in stock.
