Page Summary
-
This code sample demonstrates how to list all regions associated with a specific Merchant Center account using the Merchant API.
-
The Java and Python examples both utilize OAuth 2.0 for authentication to access the Merchant API and create service clients.
-
Both code samples format the account identifier correctly, so as to produce the parent identifier required for the API request.
-
The examples make the API call by using the
ListRegionsRequest, which takes the parent ID as an argument, and outputs the response to the console. -
The code iterates through the paged response, prints each region, and tallies the total number of regions found for the provided account.
