Important note:

This web service is secured using a Digest Access Authentication.


Parameters

You can pass an optional parameter to the URL to request the stock position of 1 specific SKU.

The parameter is: ?$filter=SKU eq {Stanley/Stella SKU}

Important note:

As you can see, the parameter contains white spaces. If you test this URL in your browser, your browser will automatically replace the white spaces with %20.

If you use this URL programmatically, be sure to first encode the URL before submitting the query. For example, in PHP you can use the function url_encode() to encode these white spaces.

Example:

v3

https://webservices.stanleystella.com/OData/StockOverview?$filter=SKU%20eq%20%27STAU760C002OS%27

v4

https://webservices.stanleystella.com/ODatav4/StockOverview?$filter=SKU%20eq%20%27STAU760C002OS%27
