Amazon Token Generation

This document outlines the process for generating Amazon token. The token is required for API integration and must be refreshed periodically.

This table contains the necessary configurations for Amazon account integration.

Action: Verify that all values in the integration_credentials table are correct. These values should be identical across every Amazon account used in the integration

Before generating/refreshing tokens, we need to verify that the instance exists in our system. Follow these steps:

1.1. Log into the Callbacks Database:

1.2. Search for the Client Instance:

In the database, click on "client", then search for the client instance by clientName

Action: Check that local settings are configured correctly. This should be done by the team leader

Account Type:
- Vendor: Amazon vendors sell products directly to Amazon in bulk. Amazon then sells these products on its platform
- Seller: Amazon sellers list their products on Amazon’s marketplace and sell directly to consumers
Account Setup:
- Select Account Type: Choose whether the account should be set up as a vendor or a seller, depending on the needs of the integration.
- Set Client Email: Enter the email address where authentication-related messages will be received. This email will be used for verifying.
- "OAuth Began": Ensure that the "OAuth Began" box is unchecked at the beginning.

Fill in Merchant ID: The Merchant ID is a unique identifier for each Amazon account. Here’s how to locate it:

* While the Merchant ID is optional, it is recommended for downloading the orders and updates.

Email Confirmation: When the authentication email is received, open the email and follow the confirmation link.

Success Check: After following the link, if the authentication is successful, you should receive a confirmation message.
Failed Authentication: If the authentication is not successful and no confirmation message is received, log a bug with Dev Support to investigate and resolve the issue.
