How can I list my item benefitting a charity, if I only know the Mission Fish Charity Number?
Summary
If you know the Mission Fish Charity Number, you can set the Item.Charity.CharityNumber in the AddItem request. The Charity container either takes the Mission Fish CharityNumber or the corresponding eBay CharityID.
Detailed Description
Lets say, you want to list an item benefitting the a charity that you found on the Mission Fish site:
http://donations.ebay.com/charity/charity.jsp?NP_ID=5713
On that page, you will only see the Mission Fish Charity Number, which is 5713. This is different from the corresponding eBay CharityID. To list an item, set the Charity.CharityNumber with this number as below:
Alternately, you can make a call to GetCharities and find out the eBay CharityID and set Charity.CharityID with that number in the AddItem request.
