[BUG][SP-API] Reports API is not working as intended to documentations.

[caner-cetin]

{"reportType":"GET_MERCHANTS_LISTINGS_FYP_REPORT","marketplaceIds":"[ATVPDKIKX0DER]"}

When I send this body data to /reports/2021-06-30/reports WITHOUT NO PARAMETERS BECAUSE THIS IS WHAT YOU DOCUMENT , I get

{ "errors": [ { "code": "InvalidInput", "message": "One or more required parameters missing", "details": "marketplaceIds;" } ] }

but according to documentation only required thing is body data.

don't rely on AWS or SP-API documentation at all, in the end, you will always fix your problem at the stack overflow or issues tab over here. congrats on making the worst documentation work for developers.

See #2155, he couldnt make it because content-type was never documented there.

See #1681, where in the world "encode the params in the url path" is documented in SP-API? Also it doesnt work.

See #1246, that dude couldnt even solve the problem because there were no details on what was wrong, so future readers cant also figure out what was wrong and fix our problems inspired by that.

you. are. worst. api. developers. ever. ever.

I fixed my issue with sending

"marketplaceIds":["ATVPDKIKX0DER"]

instead of

"marketplaceIds":ATVPDKIKX0DER

So what, send the report ID back to amazon servers? Hell nah fella.

It seems like

{"reportId":"500XXXXX"}

needs to be combinated with something as it doest accept it and it isnt clearly stated in documentation again, GOD, profanity ME.

What does this even mean? WHAT? HOW?

[stefnats]

Seems like you are confusing reportId and reportDocumentId. ReportId is usually a number and reportDocumentId is a longer string.
When you create (request) a report you will receive a reportId.
When this report is finished, reports api will return reportDocumentId alongside the reportId.
With reportDocumentId you can request the download url for the report.

I hope this clarifies it a bit better.

@stefnats what about when requesting the download URL, it returns Access to requested resource is denied. This never happened before, but suddenly it did. I never changed anything, except that I make the request on the next day.

[stefnats]

Access to requested resource is denied

is this error happening when you call the URL that you obtained the day before?
So: Did you call getReportDocument, saved the url and download the next day?

In that case i would think that this is caused, because the URL that was returned might be available only for a certain short time period. If you want a new link you have to call it again.
Again, this is just a guess.

This is a very old issue that is probably not getting as much attention as it deserves. We encourage you to check if this is still an issue after the latest release and if you find that this is still a problem, please feel free to open a new issue and make a reference to this one.
