Suddenly, today, I could not continue to perform ItemSearch queries on the Amazon Product Advertising API.

This is the complete XML error response I get.

<element '{http:="" ecs.amazonaws.com="" doc="" 2005-10-05="" }itemsearcherrorresponse'="" at="" 0x7f58cc173138=""></element>

Error responses usually come with additional information in a Code field, that helps understand the cause of the error. But not on this case.

Have I been blocked? or Does this mean the service is down momentarily?

As per I have understood, Amazon has suspended access to the Product Advertising API since the beginning of July.

You can ask for a restoration of your access, but owing to what I have been able to read on the web there are very few exceptions.

  • Hey Jonathan, would you mind letting me know the source of this information? I am trying to figure out if this is the reason why we can't manage Product Advertising API Keys anymore from our associate control panel. Cheers. – wiredmark Nov 19 '18 at 21:31
  • Hi @wiredmark, There was an announce by Amazon some months ago. I do not work for this project anymore, so unfortunateley I cannot retrieve the direct link. If you connect to https://affiliate-program.amazon.com/home, you should see something in the "Help" tab. – Jonathan Lalou Nov 21 '18 at 05:12
