Update to Listings API by July 31 to avoid listing disruptions
we received a message today which was not clear regarding the Listings API
it does not clearly state if flat file uploads are being removed from the functionality of seller central.
it refers also to two other communiques from March 2024 & February 2025
which are also not clear.
Is a "listing" in this usage - an offer? (it refers to SKU) so this would seem not to be a product detail page

I was going ask this question as well.
I'm guessing an API listing is different to using Amazon's own flat files.
We use Amazon's flat files, which is the only thing we've ever used.
I'm hoping this will still be the case and we carry on as usual?
