Machine2Machine Authentication #899

Closed ChrisLeeBare closed 3 years ago

ChrisLeeBare commented 3 years ago

Hi,

I may missed a specific point in the dev guide. Scenario: We developed an ERP Module for our customers to interact with the Amazon SP API mainly gathering reports and create inventory bookings etc. We have no website, which a user authorizes etc. It's basically machine2machine auth and communication (ERP Module <-> Amazon). The old api allowed authentication with SellerId, MWSAuthToken, AwsAcccessKeyId and SecretKey which was provided by our customers and was configured in our ERP Module.

But I can't find the right workflow with the new api.

  1. Marketplace Auth Workflow -> requires iirc a website where the user logs ins.
  2. Website Auth Workflow -> requires also a website
  3. Self-Auth Workflow -> works but only allows access to our own seller central account.

What is the correct workflow for a pure machine2machine auth workflows for our ERP Module. Thanks in advance.

Hi @ChrisLeeBare ,

Marketplace or Website Auth workflow is recommend for 3p authorizations but you can try sharing your OAuth Authorizations URIs until your application is published. Please refer to this section https://github.com/amzn/selling-partner-api-docs/blob/main/guides/developer-guide/SellingPartnerApiDeveloperGuide.md#authorizing-selling-partner-api-applications on how to create OAuth URIs. Please open a support case if you want to discuss more about workflow that works for you.

Thanks, Parvathm, Selling Partner API Developer Support.
