On July 10, we issued an awareness announcement to remind developers that public exposure of Amazon LWA client credentials can lead to developer’s loss of access to the Selling Partner API. We understand that the title of this announcement may not have been as clear as we had intended, and we apologize for any misunderstanding.

Important: Public Exposure of Amazon LWA client credentials will lead to loss of SP-API access.

Introducing the new Replenishment API

Starting June 21, 2023, the Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) will be updated for all marketplaces. We are updating the AUP to add instructions for the Page View Report terms and conditions. The added references are applicable for users of Amazon API services in Section 5.6 of the AUP.

Effective June 5, 2023, Amazon will reject requests that are not consistent with HTTP RFC 7230. We have enforced this restriction to a portion of requests since April 25, 2023.

Starting June 30, 2023, Amazon will require the ListPrice attribute across 1000 product types (PTs). This change will improve customer experience by providing accurate and complete product attribute information. Selling Partners must enter the List Price or the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price for product types that involve List Prices.

New reports attributes directory

On February 6, 2023, we announced that you must rotate your Login with Amazon (LWA) credentials (client secrets) for all applications every 180 days. Regular and timely rotation of LWA credentials limits the duration of your application’s credentials in the event that credentials are exposed or compromised. LWA credentials older than 180 days must be rotated by May 22, 2023.

Starting July 05, 2023 August 6, 2023 August 16, 2023, Amazon will require 25 attributes across 52 product types (PTs) in listings templates. This change will improve the customer buying experience by making the product attribute information available within Amazon's catalog. Selling Partners must enter attribute information for the identified product types when creating ASINs through the product upload page.

UPDATE: We’ve changed the date when the rate will be lowered from May 1st to July 10th to provide more time for necessary updates to apps to accommodate the new rate limit.
