WHAT IT DOES

What ebay_resume_promotion does on Ebay

AI agents use ebay_resume_promotion to create or update resources in Ebay, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Ebay environment.

RISK

Why ebay_resume_promotion is rated Medium

Resuming a promotion changes its active state and can affect marketing campaigns, potentially impacting costs and visibility. However, it is reversible (can be paused/stopped again) and does not destroy data or move money directly. This places it in Write rather than Financial or Destructive.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'ebay_resume_promotion' indicates it modifies the state of a promotion by resuming it. The description states it operates 'through the eBay Marketing API,' which in eBay's context involves changing promotion status/configuration.
