Hi everyone just want to ask a few questions about the amazon mws api since I stuck for more than a week now finding a great solution of the problem and also this is my first time to code with amazon product. My question is does MWS API get the business report specially the detail page sales and traffic. As I what I have read in the forums some say that it is not available in MWS API, some say also that there's a way to get it through API. I`m confuse right now how to start it. I was also wondering if I can scrape the page but have problem of the two way factor verification. Thanks in advance.
No. The MWS API does not give you access to that report.
We currently have a sales assistant download it every day and upload it into our system.
Go to Amazon Seller Central.
Hover over Reports -> Click Business Reports
On the left, under By ASIN, click Detail Page Sales and Traffic
On the Right Change the From Date and To Date to one of the value needed
Click Download -> CSV

Im trying to obtain the date when a store was created on Google Places API, that information is not available on the API.I think, that I can do if I retrieve the first review date, but the API give me only 5 reviews.
Any ideas for obtain the date? or a similar service? I checked facebook and forsquare, but the same results.
Currently this information is not exposed via Places API. There are following feature requests in Google issue tracker that you might be interested in:
Expose creation date and date of last update in Place Details
Google Places API Reviews, changing the sorting order?
Places API: Response to Include More Than 5 Reviews
I would suggest starring these feature requests to add your vote and subscribe to further notifications from Google. Hopefully one day they implement these feature requests.
According to Instagram (GRAPH) documentation, it's straight forward to get the insights of a post or media object (even story).
Unlike the Facebook insights of a post, Instagram (GRAPH) does not provide paid/organic breakdown on a post level for available metrics like impressions and engagement.
This creates a big issue for marketing teams because they cannot differentiate organic from paid performance.
Another way to try to hack this is by fetching all related Ads created on this post. I didn't find anyway to read Ads, AdSets or Campaigns related to a post ID. The only way I can think about this is to manually select the Ads related, on a condition that those Ads were created by the same Ad Account we have access to.
So my question is: Is it possible to get organic vs paid breakdown on the performance metrics of an Instagram post through the API?
from Facebook Developer support I know that the Instagram Graph API only reports organic results (so if a IG post received 300 likes, 200 of which from paid activities, an API call for the media insights will only return a value of 100 likes).
At the same time as far as I know the Facebook Ads API only returns the paid performance, not the organic ones.
For this reason you should be able to report the two sources separatedly, since the metrics don't overlap. The problem arises if you need to join the two sources (for example getting the like total of a single post), since as far as I know there's no matching variable between the media from Graph API and the Ads from Facebook Ads
I am new to Product Advertising API and wondering if there is way programmatically watch any events on products. Sort of webhook that will be trigger when whatever event happened. For example: Customer left review on product and I would may be post that change to my backend for further analysis.
After reading more and googling. It seems there is no such interface. Pulling reviews is not easy at it seems: Is there an Amazon.com API to retrieve product reviews?
I have a requirement where users will visit my site and based on some logic able to earn points. The user will then be able to use this point to checkout any item of equivalent amount that is listed in my website.
The items that are to be listed is actually coming from amazon and I am an amazon affiliate so when they make the purchase i end up earning commission.
The challenges that I am facing is amazon always takes the user to their own website for the checkout, and so I am not able to put any restriction on the cost of the item that the user is checking out. The user can very well choose some other item while doing the checkout from within amazon's website.
As per my research amazon doesn't allow checkout from 3rd party websites like mine and will always bring the user to their own website. While I can create a bot using casper.js to emulate an user i dont want to go with this.
Is there any known API or solution to achieve what I am trying ?
I don't think it's possible to have user checkout products on your website. (Why would Amazon ever allow that?)
However, I also don't think that should be important to you. You should redirect customers to Amazon with proper associate tags (www.amazon.com/dp/...?tag=...) in the URL. After that, any purchases that they make, irrespective of whether it was the one you showed on your website, become candidates for payouts to you. So, if you redirected a customer to product A on Amazon and she bought product B, you might be paid out for it, obviously if the purchase satisfied the affiliate policies.
I am currently using the Open Graph API but am not opposed to using FQL if it can get me the data points I'd like. Right now I am just hitting the urls directly and not worrying about a client SDK.
Of the three charts on http://www.facebook.com/insights/ => websites I can find the data for the Site Engagement chart in the Domain Insights in the API.
However, I can't seem to find the points for Distribution on Facebook, or Referral Traffic to Site in the insight data being returned for the domain. Did I miss them, are they available maybe in FQL or are they just not exposed yet?
Edit: It looks like someone doesn't understand what charts I am talking about so to clarify, I am looking for the following anywhere in the Open Graph API, FQL, or anyplace else in Facebook:
Like Story Impressions
Share Story Impressions
Like Story Clicks
Share Story Clicks
This info is now available via the Insights app. News Feed section has some of it, at least the story impressions and clicks.
