What it does and what it's for
Automating tasks with the Amazon Associates integration in Botize allows you to efficiently extract products from specific Amazon categories. This tool facilitates obtaining detailed product information, including images, prices, and affiliate links, thereby optimizing your affiliate marketing strategies.
With customization options such as category selection, keywords, and advanced filters, you can tailor searches to your specific needs. Additionally, the integration enables sorting results according to various criteria and setting parameters like minimum and maximum prices, ensuring that the extracted products align with your business objectives.
When using the Amazon API, it's crucial to understand that you can only retrieve results from the first 10 pages, with a maximum of 10 products per page, limiting access to a total of 100 products. To overcome this restriction and access a wider variety of products, it's necessary to make more specific queries.
- EU Omnibus regulation (allows to show the lowest price of the last 30 days as a reference price).
- You can specify a keyword as well as a category to optimize your search.
- Sort the results according to different criteria such as opinions, recent products, top rated , cheap, expensive or relevant.
- Improve the quality of the results by setting a minimum number of stars.
- Determine with precision the range of products to extract by setting a minimum and maximum price.
- Extract the best products by establishing the minimum discount that the products must meet to be selected.
- Exclude from the results those products that share very similar names.
- Improve the diversity of results by prioritizing the diversity of categories.
- Includes the Amazon Warehouse second-hand offer (price, condition and availability) when the product has one available.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Why can't I find my preferred language in the Amazon Affiliates API?
Why isn't the second-hand price the cheapest one I see on the Amazon website?
Because the Amazon API only sends one second-hand offer per product: the one Amazon features, which isn't necessarily the cheapest. The other used offers you see on the website under "See all buying options" (for example, a cheaper "Acceptable" one next to the "Like New" one) are not included in the API response, and Amazon doesn't provide any parameter to request them.
Also, that offer is not always from Amazon Warehouse: it may be sold by another seller or by the manufacturer itself.
Since the featured offer is sometimes only slightly cheaper than the new product, we recommend adding a filter on Second-hand Saving:Percentage so you only post the ones above the discount you choose, and showing Second-hand:Condition in your post so buyers know what condition the product is in.
Why do some products come without second-hand data, or stop having it from one day to the next?
There are two reasons, and neither depends on Botize:
- Not every product has a second-hand offer. Roughly half of popular products have one; if Amazon doesn't send any, the second-hand fields are left empty.
- Second-hand offers are usually a single unit and disappear as soon as someone buys it. For a while, Amazon may keep sending the price of an offer that can no longer be bought. So you don't post a sold-out deal, Botize only returns second-hand data when Amazon reports the offer as in stock.
So if your task uses second-hand data, add a filter that checks that Second-hand Price:Amount is not empty before posting.
Troubleshooting
Common Errors
Error:TooManyRequests. The request was denied due to request throttling. Please verify the number of requests made per second to the Amazon Product Advertising API.
- Amazon may not have enabled your API access yet (even if you have already been able to generate your access keys).
Amazon API access credentials are typically not available from the time they are created. In some cases it may be necessary to wait up to 48 hours before they can be used, while other users have even reported waiting several weeks.
We recommend waiting up to 48 hours from the time you create your Amazon credentials. - Your Amazon API has access to a different country than the one you indicated in the Botize connection form.
In this case you will have to connect another affiliate account that does operate in the country for which you are interested. - It is possible that you are exceeding the number of calls that Amazon allows you or that access to the Amazon API has been revoked.
When Amazon gives you access to the API and creates your credentials, it allows you to make only one API request for one second and a maximum of 8,640 requests per day for the first 30 days. Subsequently, and depending on the sales made, Amazon will extend or reduce these limits.
If you have multiple tasks running at the same time, you may be making more API calls in the same second than Amazon allows. In this case, a solution is to schedule your tasks to run at different times so that they do not coincide with each other.
See the page Amazon API Usage Limits to learn more About Amazon limits. - You haven't made any sales for more than 1 month.
You need a minimum of one sale per month to maintain your access to the API.
If you have not made any sales in the last 30 days, Amazon can revoke access to the API.
Error: InvalidParameterValue. The value provided in the request for SearchIndex is invalid. Refer https://webservices.amazon.es/paapi5/documentation/locale-reference/spain.html#search-index for valid values.
To resolve this, edit the automatic task and select the most appropriate category from the list that appears.
Error:ReconnectRequired -> Amazon has retired the Product Advertising API for your account. To keep this task running, create a Creators API credential in Associates Central (Tools > Creators API) and reconnect your Amazon account in Botize.
Amazon is shutting down the Product Advertising API — the one this connection uses — and replacing it with the new Creators API. Amazon is doing this account by account, so your tasks may have been working fine until today and stopped from one day to the next.
It is not a Botize problem and there is nothing wrong with your Amazon account: your current credentials simply no longer give access. To keep your tasks running you have to create a Creators API credential and reconnect.
How to fix it:
- Sign in to Associates Central with your Amazon Associates account (or your country's site, e.g. afiliados.amazon.es).
- Go to Tools → Creators API and click Create credential.
- Copy the three values Amazon shows you: credential ID, credential secret and version.
- In Botize, add an Amazon Associates connection and paste those three values along with your marketplace and your Partner Tag.
- Use exactly the same Partner Tag you were using before. The connection then replaces the old one and your existing tasks keep working with no further changes. If you use a different Partner Tag you get a second, separate connection and you would have to edit every task to point at it.
Error:ReconnectRequired -> Your Amazon credentials are no longer valid. Amazon now uses Login with Amazon to access the Creators API. Please create a new credential in Associates Central (Tools > Creators API) and reconnect your Amazon account in Botize.
Botize tried to sign in to Amazon with the credentials saved in this connection and Amazon rejected them.
The usual cause is that Amazon changed how the Creators API is accessed: it now uses Login with Amazon instead of the previous system, and credentials issued under the old system stopped working. It can also happen if the credential was deleted or regenerated in Associates Central.
How to fix it:
- Sign in to Associates Central with your Amazon Associates account (or your country's site, e.g. afiliados.amazon.es).
- Go to Tools → Creators API and click Create credential.
- Copy the three values Amazon shows you: credential ID, credential secret and version.
- In Botize, add an Amazon Associates connection and paste those three values along with your marketplace and your Partner Tag.
- Use exactly the same Partner Tag you were using before. The connection then replaces the old one and your existing tasks keep working with no further changes. If you use a different Partner Tag you get a second, separate connection and you would have to edit every task to point at it.
The technical detail of the rejection (for example HTTP 400: invalid_client) is shown after the | at the end of the error message.
