Hi again Hemanth,
I think that vacation rentals would be considered a custom item type, in which case, you are free to specify an expiration date when you create the item. Custom item types do not have a set expiration date. However, you might also consider using housing as your item type, as you might get more traffic by using a recommended item type with the recommended attributes here: http://base.google.com/base/api/itemTypeDocs?verticalName=housing&verticalLocale=en_US . You would be able to specify the listing type as vacation rental to set your items apart from normal house listings.
Thank you,
Jeff

Hi Hemanth,
The expiration date is automatically set but you can extend it my performing an update on the item before it expires.
Happy coding,
Jeff

Hi Hemanth,
It seems like the first issue is an un-geocodable address, I tried
looking up the address in maps and it wasn't recognized so I think
it's not in the geocoding system yet. In such situations you can
specify the latitude and longitude of an item as described
here:http://code.google.com/apis/base/starting-out.html#latlong. This
should allow you to insert the item even if the address is
unrecognized.
For your second question, the length of time that an item remains active is determined by the item type. Products tend to be limited to 30 days while other items types are valid for different lengths of time. You can't really set the expiration date for recognized item types, though custom item types are more flexible. To keep an item from expiring, you'll need to update it within the time frame and the expiration date will be changed to x days after the last update.
Thank you,
Jeff

Hi Jeff
Setting content type to 'text/html' fixed the issue.
I am getting couple of issues while uploading
1.I am getitng error at location while uploading the new item. The error is <error type="data" field="location" reason="We don't understand this location. Please type in a valid location - e.g. street (optional), city, state, postal code." /> </errors>
my item location is "4622 Nottingham Heights, Sevierville, TN, 37863" Could you tell me what is the problem with the location value.
2.All of sudden I am getting following error <errors> <error type="data" field="item" reason="Cannot exceed 30 days" /> </errors>
Does this mean I can't set the item's expiration date more than thirty days .Previously I uploaded the item with the expiration date of 3 months from current date.
Your help in resolving the above issues is highly appreciated.
Thanks hemanth

Hi Hemanth,
I'm wondering if the problem stems from the type of the content. If Content.Type is text, it might be escaping the < and > signs and turning them into ' . Just to make sure, it might be helpful to look at a packet trace to make sure that the HTML contents of your item are not being incorrectly escaped. It seems like the content itself is correct.
I believe that I've addressed your question about adding your company
to the drop down list in this
threadhttp://groups.google.com/group/Google-Base-data-API/browse_frm/thread...
but please let me know if you still have questions in this area.
Thank you,
Jeff
