how to use MWS create_fulfillment_order?

[Martin Luessi]

Hi,

I'm trying to use boto to enter a fulfillment order using MWS. However, I get a "Bad request" error with the message "Top level element may not be treated as a list". My example code is below. I assume that there is a mistake with the way I submit "Items". Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Cheers,

Martin

from boto.mws.connection import MWSConnection

mws = MWSConnection(mws_access_key, mws_secret_key, Merchant=mws_seller_id)

address = dict(Name='John Doe', Line1='1 School Street', DistrictOrCounty='United States', City='Beverly Hills', 

               StateOrProvinceCode='CA', CountryCode='US', PostalCode='90210')

items = [dict(SellerSKU='2', SellerFulfillmentOrderItemId='2', Quantity='1')]

r = mws.create_fulfillment_order(SellerFulfillmentOrderId='XXX0911', DisplayableOrderId='XXX0911',

                                 DisplayableOrderDateTime='2015-04-05T07:00:00Z',

                                 DisplayableOrderComment='Thank you for your order!',

                                 ShippingSpeedCategory='Expedited',

                                 DestinationAddress=address,

                                 Items=items, FulfillmentAction='Hold')

I figured it out :). See https://github.com/boto/boto/issues/2808

Hmm, never would have figured that out, it does not mesh with the docs:

http://boto.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ref/mws.html

"... Items (ResponseElement or anything iterable/dict-like) ..."

There is actually a specific structure needed.

Correct, from my update to issue #2808…

It's a bug.

Find the `@structured_objects('DestinationAddress', 'Items')` decorator above the `create_fulfillment_order()` and add a `members=True` parameter to it; then the code as I wrote it above should work without the `dict(Member=...)` wrapper.

I would submit a PR but I am disinclined to do so until my previously accepted PR is actually merged; it seems the maintainers have too much on their plate.

Unfortunately that seems to be a common issue these days. Too many
directions, not enough follow through.
