Developer Profile Review

The decision to grant or deny Selling Partner API access is made based on the information that you provide in your Developer Profile, including but not limited to your application functionality and your compliance with the Acceptable Use Policy and the Data Protection Policy. We cannot provide detailed information about how we determine Selling Partner API eligibility, but we prioritize data security in these decisions. Refer to Registration recommendations for more policy information.

If you close or do not respond to questions about your case within five days, your case will be resolved and your SP-API access will remain unchanged.

Register your Application

The following procedures show you how to register your application

Sign in to Seller Central using your developer credentials and navigate to Partner Network and click Develop Apps.
On the Developer Central page, choose Add new app client.
Complete the form.

View your Application Information and Credentials

The following procedures show you how to view your application information and credentials.

Sign in to Seller Central using your developer credentials and navigate to Partner Network and click Develop Apps. The Developer Central page displays information about your application(s).
Choose View under LWA credentials for the application you want. Your LWA client identifier and client secret for that application appear. You will need these credentials to request an LWA access token.

Rotate your Application's LWA Credentials

As of February 6, 2023, you must rotate your Login With Amazon (LWA) credentials (client secrets) for all applications every 180 days. If you do not update your LWA credentials before your target rotation date, your application will lose access to SP-API.

What is credential rotation?

Credential rotation is the process of periodically updating your client secrets. Regular and timely rotation of Login With Amazon (LWA) credentials limits the duration of your application’s credentials in the event that credentials are exposed or compromised.

Why do you need to rotate the LWA client secret on SP-API application(s)?

Your application’s LWA credentials are like a username and password. Even if you are very careful with your access credentials, you might find yourself in a situation where your credentials have been exposed or compromised. Regular and timely rotation of your LWA client secret help to make your applications more secure by limiting the lifespan of credentials.

Failure to rotate the LWA client secret for your app by the due date will result in the loss of ability to make any API calls. This will directly impact any customers that have authorized your application by restricting critical business functions.

Sign in to your developer account on Seller Central, or Developer Central and navigate to the Developer Console page that lists all your applications.
From the LWA credentials column, find the expiration alert and select View.
(Optional) For ease of reference, you can securely store your existing LWA credentials in an encrypted form.
Choose Rotate secret, read the warning, then choose Rotate secret again.
View the updated target rotation date on the LWA credentials page.
Repeat Steps 2 through Step 6 for every application showing an expiration alert.
After you generate a new LWA credential (client secret), you must update your credentials in ILS store configuration page. Your old credentials expire seven days after you generate new credentials.
