How it is used

Before 2.6-202211 some sellers carried inventorypartnerdomain in this object. It is now the core field App.inventorypartnerdomain.

Example

Where the field sits in a payload, with everything else left out:

{
  "id": "req-1",
  "app": {
    "ext": {}
  }
}

Common mistakes

  • Leaving the value only in app.ext.inventorypartnerdomain after moving to 2.6-202211 or later. Buyers on current snapshots read the core field.
