Port information previously returned in V2's "ShopAbout" endpoint to the V3 "Shop" endpoint

[rajivraman]

There is currently no way to get fields like "related-links" that were part of V2's "ShopAbout" endpoint (https://www.etsy.com/developers/documentation/reference/shopabout). I'd appreciate if this information was ported over. See related Q&A thread: #1015

Hi @rajivraman I'm confused. Isn't this a duplicate of the thread you just linked #1015 ?

As per my advice in that thread, you need to email Etsy devs about this. developer@etsy.com

They don't take requests, or do bug tracking on this discussion board.

Hi @Gareth064 , I did reach out to support and they responded:

Hi Raj,

We appreciate you reaching out to us.

If you wish to have your request documented so you can track it, please start a discussion on Github Discussions. But rest assured that I have brought up your desire for this information with our internal engineering team. They have noted it and will use this feedback as they evaluate possible future updates.

Please let me know if you need help with anything else.

Kind regards,

V

I was a bit confused since I had linked to #1015 in my original email.

[Gareth064]

Hmmm. I have never heard that advice from them before.

If they want people to start logging requests/ideas officially on GitHub then I think we need a better structured discussion template. Something that helps capture relevant information that is easily understood etc.

It would be crap if an official request or idea was a one-liner that no-one understands. (Not talking about yours 🤣 but you get what I mean)

[rajivraman]

Agreed. Another person responded to my email stating that the eng team has taken note of it. So I'll close this discussion.
