How to Use the Walmart Marketplace MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Q: How does the OpenAI Agents SDK handle bulk pricing updates on Walmart Marketplace?

The agent invokes wmbulkpriceupdate to process large volumes of data. It expects a payload containing tracking parameters and matrices, ensuring that your price changes hit the marketplace safely.

Q: What kind of item status information does the OpenAI Agents SDK get from Walmart Marketplace?

The wmgetitemstatus tool analyzes specific SKU constraints. You can retrieve details on buy-box limits, current lifecycle statuses, and any explicit errors associated with those items.

Q: Can the OpenAI Agents SDK handle product retirement for Walmart Marketplace listings?

Yes. The wmretireitem tool securely removes active arrays from public view. It's a clean process that masks the item from public constraints once executed.

Q: How does the OpenAI Agents SDK use taxonomy data on Walmart Marketplace?

The agent calls wmgettaxonomy to poll and correctly allocate explicit structural node trees. This gives you a clean view of how your products fit within Walmart's overall category structure.

Bulk Pricing and Inventory Updates

When you need to adjust many items, this server uses `wm_bulk_price_update` to safely upload large payload matrices. It also manages physical stock levels by calling `wm_update_inventory`, which resolves unit values against proxy limits. Setting prices is straightforward with `wm_set_price`. You map retail structured limits and dynamically bound the pricing for any item you need to change.

Listing Status and Discovery

The server reads all actively published 3P seller catalog arrays using `wm_list_items`. If an item needs taking down, `wm_retire_item` cleanly unpublishes the active array. You can also check health with `wm_get_item_status`, which parses buy-box limits and lifecycle errors for specific SKUs.

Category Setup and Promotions

You don't have to manually build your category structure; use `wm_get_taxonomy` to poll Walmart's dynamic classification structures. To run sales, the system executes markdown or clearance payloads via `wm_setup_promotions`, resolving structured promotions for you.

Setup guide

Set up Walmart Marketplace MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
openai-agents package (pip install openai-agents)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install the SDK

Run pip install openai-agents to install the OpenAI Agents SDK. The MCP integration is built-in — no extra dependencies needed.
2

Connect via SSE transport

Use MCPServerSse with your Vinkius endpoint URL. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. The SDK auto-discovers all Walmart Marketplace tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

Pass the MCP to Agent(mcp_servers=[server]). The agent receives Walmart Marketplace tools as native definitions — JSON schemas resolve automatically.
4

Run the agent

Call Runner.run(agent, prompt) to execute. The agent invokes the appropriate Walmart Marketplace tools and returns structured results. Copy the full example on the right to get started.

agent.py

import asyncio
from agents import Agent, Runner
from agents.mcp import MCPServerSse

async def main():
    async with MCPServerSse(
        url="https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    ) as server:
        agent = Agent(
            name="Walmart Marketplace Agent",
            instructions="You have access to Walmart Marketplace tools.",
            mcp_servers=[server],
        )
        result = await Runner.run(agent, "List recent transactions")
        print(result.final_output)

asyncio.run(main())
