We have been trying to integrate authorize.net payment gateway in one of our clients project based on Asp.net web API. We have few queries that we came across while implementing Recurring Planning scenarios.
Query 1
We checked the API’s for Creating Subscription, Getting Subscription, Updating Subscription. However once we have created subscription, is there any way we can update the amount in the subscription.
Let’s say for example.
We have a created a subscription for our user for 50$ amount on 01st Jan 2021 with 30 days interval.
And on 15th Jan 2021, our user wishes to purchase 1 more license which will cost him 10$ more.
Hence can we increase his billing cycle of subscription by updating the subscription?
We checked in Update Subscription API, & it is only allowing to update credit card info hence is there any way to update amount.
Query 2
Is there any way to implement Autorenewal, hence when a user wishes he/she can set auto renewal on/off for recurring billing.
Query 3
If there is any way to switch off auto renewal of recurring billing, then is there any link that we can generate & send them through which they can pay there next due.
Query 1: You cannot update a subscription amount. If the amount needs to change you either need to cancel the current subscription and create a new one for the new amount (being sure to prorate credit from the previous subscription payment) or use CIM to manage your subscription service which allows you to charge against their card at your discretion but requires you to also manage the subscription yourself.
Query 2: Not through Authorize.Net. If you want a subscription to start or end you need to explicitly do so through their API.
Query 3: Not through Authorize.Net. That application logic and, once again, you would be responsible for managing.
I'm assuming you are using or are aware of the API provided for Authorize.net here: https://github.com/AuthorizeNet/sdk-dotnet/tree/master/Authorize.NET/Api/Controllers
Query 1: As of now, there is a way to update the amount for a given subscription. You can use ARBSubscriptionType class. There is an amount property there you can set. Then you can create the request ARBUpdateSubscriptionRequest, passing in the ARBSubscriptionType class and the subscription Id.
Note: You might have to handle pro-rating.
Query 2: There isn't a built in renewal feature in Authorize.Net as far as I know. It seems like you could potentially update the totalOccurrences by some amount to act as a "renewal", when technically its an extension of the subscription. The method in which you check when to update, either a Modulo operation or a date check is up to you. You can use paymentScheduleType class to update totalOccurrences, passing it along to a ARBUpdateSubscriptionRequest.
Query 3: Authorize.Net does not have any in house link generation.
Is it possible to retrieve the service fee charges independent of the SKU like Subscription Fee, FBA Inventory Storage Fee etc. using amazon market API.
I tried the Financial Event API which returns the service fees in the format
<ServiceFeeEvent>
<FeeList>
<FeeComponent>
<FeeType>FBADisposalFee</FeeType>
<FeeAmount>
<CurrencyAmount>-0.15</CurrencyAmount>
<CurrencyCode>USD</CurrencyCode>
</FeeAmount>
</FeeComponent>
</FeeList>
</ServiceFeeEvent>
Which does not contains the data like PostedDate. Is there any oter APIs availabile to get the detailed data of service fee amounts?
In case it's useful for someone else, I figured out an approach that kind of works for me, though it's not ideal.
I'm using the Reports API to download the _GET_V2_SETTLEMENT_REPORT_DATA_FLAT_FILE_ report, which has the fees and a posted-date column. Some of Amazon's documentation about it can be found here: http://docs.developer.amazonservices.com/en_US/reports/Reports_ReportType.html
The disadvantage is that it's only generated once every two weeks. The advantage, compared to the Finances API, is that you get the posting date and the specific transaction that the fee came from.
I was given an Amazon awsAccessKeyId and awsSecretKey,
also our company has affiliated with Amazon, we get a Associate Tag.
And I was told we may get higher API limits, because we are affiliated.
But I don't have any detailed info about the API limits,
I want to know how many calls i can make in a second
Is there any way I could check our API Key status?
The call i use will be check product info like:
Service=AWSECommerceService
&Operation=ItemLookup&ItemId=[ID]
&IdType=ASIN
.....
When you exceed the requests limit, Amazon Product Advertising API sends a (possibly gzipped) response with 503 status code. Example response for ItemLookup query:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ItemLookupErrorResponse xmlns="http://ecs.amazonaws.com/doc/2013-08-01/">
<Error>
<Code>RequestThrottled</Code>
<Message>AWS Access Key ID: YOUR-AWS-ACCESS-KEY-ID. You are submitting requests too quickly. Please retry your requests at a slower rate.</Message>
</Error>
<RequestId>fabebd87-54a2-44ec-b547-deb5feee900a</RequestId>
</ItemLookupErrorResponse>
The rules have changed since #at0mzk's answer.
You have to make sales to use the API. The limits are set by sales in the last 30 days.
Effective 23-Jan-2019, the usage limit for each account is calculated based on revenue performance attributed to calls (also called requests) to the Product Advertising API (PA API) during your account’s latest 30-day trailing period.
Each account used for Product Advertising API is allowed an initial usage limit up to a maximum of 1 request per second and a cumulative daily maximum of 8640 requests per day (TPD) for the first 30-day period after your account has been approved. Following that period, your PA API usage limit will solely be based on your shipped item revenue. Your account will earn a usage limit of 1 TPD for every 5 cents or 1 TPS (up to a maximum of 10 TPS) for every $4320 of shipped item revenue generated via the use of Product Advertising API for shipments in the previous 30-day period.

Apparently there's not way of checking exactly what those limits are and they will change based on the performance of your account.
It seems that the minimum rate limits are:
1 request per second
8640 requests per day
Those limits will increase if your account has a good performance (as in shipped items revenue) using the API links.

API Rates
Curious to know how we provision API call rates for Product Advertising API 5.0? First, some definitions:
TPS – Transactions per second, refers to the maximum number of API calls you can make in one second. Each API call counts as one transaction. For example, if you send 10 ASINs in the request parameter of a GetItems() call, it counts as a single transaction.
TPD – Transactions per day, refers to the maximum number of API calls you can make in one day. If Associate has 1 TPS and 8640 TPD, then maximum of 1 request can be sent per second and 8640 per day. Even if 1 TPS is there, once TPD is exhausted requests will be throttled.
Primary Account – This refers to the Amazon username (email address) and password that you used to create your Associates account and used to generate Product Advertising API 5.0 credentials.
Shipped revenue – This refers to the total sales volume of all items Amazon has shipped from orders resulting from clicks through links you created using Product Advertising API 5.0.
Also:
As soon as you create your Product Advertising API 5.0 credentials, you are allowed an initial usage limit up to a maximum of one request per second (one TPS) and a cumulative daily maximum of 8640 requests per day (8640 TPD) for the first 30-day period. This will help you begin your integration with the API, test it out, and start building links and referring products to your readers.
Your PA API usage limit will be adjusted based on your shipped item revenue. Your account will earn a usage limit of one TPD for every five cents or one TPS (up to a maximum of ten TPS) for every $4320 of shipped item revenue generated via the use of Product Advertising API 5.0 for shipments in the previous 30-day period. For correct attribution of shipped item revenue please ensure that you always call Product Advertising API 5.0 with the primary account credentials and retain all the URL parameters that the API returns in its response.
...
If you are trying to submit requests that exceed your account’s usage limit, or if your access has been revoked you will receive a 429 TooManyRequests error message from Product Advertising API 5.0. Please refer our API integration best practices to learn more on how to avoid these situations and optimally access the API.
I'm trying to help my wife setup her site to use an Amazon API for pulling sales related information (i.e. specific product sales, prices, etc.) The simplest way to explain: she's a middleman for Seller A and Seller B. Seller A sells Product X and Seller B sells Product Y.
I want to know which Amazon API can authenticate using the main account since both products are sold under that account, specify Product X and pulls sales related data and return the sales information. I will then present this information to Seller A. Then, I specify Product Y using the main account to authenticate and then display this return to Seller B.
Which API from Amazon will accomplish this goal?
There isn't one. It's been asked for for years.
I'm creating a application where the user will type in the name of a video game and a query will be sent to a servlet. I want this query to search the amazon product database and if the game is found i want to grab the information such as the name, publisher, platform genre etc and add this information to my database. Just like price grabber does. There is an example below.
http://video-games.pricegrabber.co.uk/nintendo-ds-games/m/25813985/details/st=product_tab/
Can this be done and if so what will i need to know and learn to do this.
I believe you should be able to use the Amazon Product Advertising API to query for this kind of product information. However the current Terms of Use appear to restrict you from storing the data into your database for more than 24 hours.
