Now Live: New Inventory Availability Endpoint

Skulytics now supports GE’s official Real-Time and Cached Availability APIs via a new inventory endpoint. This enhancement provides direct access to GE inventory data, improving visibility into availability, stock levels, and lead times.

🆕 New Endpoint Added

We are adding a new integration endpoint:

 GET  https://api.skulytics.io/integration/inventory/ge 

This endpoint provides detailed inventory information for GE brand products sourced directly from the GE Inventory API. The data includes product identifiers (SKU, UPC, and links), product status, and detailed inventory attributes such as ordered quantity, requested ship date, ship date, available quantity, and requested date quantity.

📊 Before vs After

Before (No GE Inventory Data Available)

GE inventory availability was not supported.

After (New Response Inventory Data Returned)

            "inventory": [
                {
                    "qty_ordered": 1,
                    "requested_ship_date": "12/14/2025 12:00 AM",
                    "ship_date": "12/24/2025 11:59 PM",
                    "available_qty": 1,
                    "requested_date_qty": 0
                }
            ]

⚙️ How It Works

When clients call the GE Inventory Availability endpoint, Skulytics forwards the request to GE’s official Real-Time Availability API and normalizes the response into the Skulytics format.

To calculate accurate availability and shipping readiness, the request must include the following required parameters:

• SKU – Identifies the specific GE product being checked.

• Quantity Ordered (qty_ordered) – Specifies the number of units requested.

• Requested Ship Date (requested_ship_date) – Defines the desired shipping date for the order.

• ZIP Code (zipcode) – Indicates the destination ZIP code used for availability and shipping calculations.

In addition to inventory data, the response includes complete product context—such as brand, category, subcategory, and detailed category information—allowing users to assess product availability for specific order requests accurately.

📌 What You Need to Prepare

No action is required before the release. However, API consumers should ensure their system can handle the new inventory object to avoid potential parsing issues.
