Will this project be updated for the new API version 5? I suppose it will stop working once version 4 is stopped. Thanks! |
|
@yoavaviram - Is there a plan for this? From what I understand the project will stop working tomorrow. |
|
This page has some Python sample code snippets, which will probably come in handy for migrating. |

Hi @tinohager, @sergioteula, @Pikamander2, thanks for reaching out about this issue. I have a bit of a problem implementing the migration at the moment. My Product Advertising API Account was terminated by Amazon a while ago as I'm no longer in the affiliate business (which also means I cannot create a new account). This means I can't test any changes to the code. This is a show stopper. I have tried reaching out to Amazon in various ways but they insist I must first have a website which generates traffic for them before I can use the API... I'm happy to merge pull requests if anyone cares to work on this. Otherwise i'm not sure how to proceed. |
|
The module is working just fine without any modification. Does Amazon delayed the shutdown or is the module already compatible with the new API? |
|
I was wondering the same thing. It still works on our end too, but we have no idea how long it'll continue to do so. |
|
According to this forum post, they've postponed v4.0 shutdown to January 14, 2020. Hoping we'll have a way to migrate over to v5.0 before this date. |
|
I have started a new project for making a simple wrapper for Product Advertising API V5. It's still under development but you can already get basic information about any product. You can get the code here: https://github.com/sergioteula/python-amazon-paapi5 |

@sergioteula - Awesome, thanks for doing so! I ended up using Amazon's Python SDK examples, found here: https://webservices.amazon.com/paapi5/documentation/with-sdk.html |
The package can now be installed using PIP: https://pypi.org/project/python-amazon-paapi5/0.1.0/ |
|
Update to my earlier comment: it seems that Amazon's pushed the date they're deprecating PA-API 4 once more, this time to February 11, 2020. I've been using the SDK that Amazon provides here. It looks like Amazon had intended to make this available through pip (even the Readme instructs installing via |

Documentation on migration https://webservices.amazon.com/paapi5/documentation/migration-guide.html?ref_=pe_3519780_470445350 deadline has been pushed to March 9 Will this library keep working after 9th March? |
|
Amazon's latest email states that they'll shut down PAAPI 4.0 after the March 9th deadline. I'd recommend downloading their official PAAPI 5.0 SDK and examples and at least trying them out: https://webservices.amazon.com/paapi5/documentation/with-sdk.html |
|
@Pikamander2 And if you need basic product information access, you can try my module. I will add more functionality in the future. https://pypi.org/project/python-amazon-paapi5/0.1.0/ |
|
I finally moved to python-amazon-paapi5 which was pretty straighforward, but got no replies yet about issue on 'currency' return so not sure about it's maintenance status |
|
@iranzo Hello, thanks for your comment. I will check it and improve soon. |
Already added currency support. Sorry for the delay, I had the notifications off, but already switched them on. Thanks! |

@sergioteula are you implementing the searchItems? anyone of you are just getting 10 results also setting the item count to more than 10?? actually i dont get also the products ratings |
Yes, I'm on it. Regarding product ratings, they are not available anymore through the API, although it's supposed to return that value. And for the 10 results limitation, I think is also an API limit, but I will keep this in mind for future updates. |
The last update of python-amazon-paapi removes the limitation of 10 results from Amazon API, so you can get as many results you need at once. I hope it helps. |
|
So know you can search for a product with keyword and category and get more
than 10 results? How does it work??
Thank you

Search products functionality still not implemented, it's scheduled for next update. But it will also remove the 10 results limitation. |
Version 3.0.0 is now out with search items and variations functionality, both without the Amazon limitation of 10 items per request. Hope it helps! https://github.com/sergioteula/python-amazon-paapi |

@sergioteula your new package is GPL v3 licenced which is a major change from this package which is Apache licensed. Would you consider using the same or an MIT license? |
Hello, thanks for the suggestion. Already changed to MIT License, I hope it helps. |
