FindItFirst is a client-side application that is built on top of eBay's RESTful API for automating eBay searches.
FindItFirst offers the ability to create highly customizable automated eBay searches. After creating a search and scheduling when it should run and how frequently, FindItFirst will send you email notifications anytime a new item result is discovered.
If you're an eBay power user and need to see new listings immediately as they appear on the site, FindItFirst will be a great asset. New items are always accessible through eBay's API a significant amount of time before they're listed on the actual site. This means you, quite literally, will "FindItFirst" 😄
In order to begin using this application you need to do three things:
- Get an eBay Developer Key. This can be acquired, for free, from eBay's dev site.
- Edit the api-settings.txt file to include:
- Your eBay Developer key
- The email address that will send notifications
- The email address' password
- Using the settings dialog in FindItFirst's UI, add the email you'd like to use for receiving notifications.
