Walmart MWS API not returning nextCursor

After checking the Walmart Markeptlace API to retrieve all the items in the catalog, you can see that it will return:

  • errors (array of objects)
  • itemResponse (array of objects)
  • additionalAttributes (object)
  • totalItems (integer)
  • nextCursor (string)

In my case I have over 2000 items in the catalog, but by default it will just return 20 items with a nextCursor so I can retrieve the next items. Unfortunately, i'm not getting my nextCursor in the response. I tried contacting walmart and been waiting for a reply over 2 weeks, but never got a single reply.

This is what my response looks like: enter image description here

Is there anybody running into the same issue as me? I really don't know what to do in order to retrieve the nextCursor.

Solution

  • Walmart's documentation is unclear, and contradictory. They could use some good examples. I was having the same problems as you were.

    What worked for me was explicitly passing nextCursor=* for the first page.

    I know the documentation says that's the default, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

    The response will have the nextCursor value for the next page.
