Quick Start

from amazon_creatorsapi import AmazonCreatorsApi, Country

# Initialize with your Creators API credentials
api = AmazonCreatorsApi(
    credential_id="your_credential_id",
    credential_secret="your_credential_secret",
    version="2.2",
    tag="your-affiliate-tag",
    country=Country.US,
)

# Get product information by ASIN
items = api.get_items(["B01N5IB20Q"])
print(items[0].item_info.title.display_value)

# Or use Amazon URLs directly
items = api.get_items(["https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N5IB20Q"])

Usage Examples

Get Multiple Items

items = api.get_items(["B01N5IB20Q", "B01F9G43WU"])
for item in items:
    print(item.images.primary.large.url)

Search Products

results = api.search_items(keywords="nintendo switch")
for item in results.items:
    print(item.item_info.title.display_value)

Get Product Variations

# Using ASIN
variations = api.get_variations("B01N5IB20Q")

# Or using Amazon URL
variations = api.get_variations("https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N5IB20Q")

for item in variations.items:
    print(item.detail_page_url)

Get Browse Node Information

nodes = api.get_browse_nodes(["667049031"])
for node in nodes:
    print(node.display_name)

Get the ASIN from URL

from amazon_creatorsapi import get_asin

asin = get_asin("https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N5IB20Q")

Using OffersV2 Resources

items = api.get_items(["B01N5IB20Q"])
item = items[0]
if item.offers_v2 and item.offers_v2.listings:
    listing = item.offers_v2.listings[0]
    print(listing.price.money.amount)
    print(listing.merchant_info.name)

Throttling

Throttling value represents the wait time in seconds between API calls, being the default value 1 second. Use it to avoid reaching Amazon request limits.

amazon = AmazonCreatorsApi(ID, SECRET, VERSION, TAG, COUNTRY, throttling=4)  # Makes 1 request every 4 seconds
amazon = AmazonCreatorsApi(ID, SECRET, VERSION, TAG, COUNTRY, throttling=0)  # No wait time between requests

Working with Models

All SDK models are re-exported through amazon_creatorsapi.models for convenient access:

from amazon_creatorsapi.models import (
    Item,
    Condition,
    SortBy,
    GetItemsResource,
    SearchItemsResource,
)

# Use Condition enum for filtering
items = api.get_items(["B01N5IB20Q"], condition=Condition.NEW)

# Use SortBy enum for search ordering
results = api.search_items(keywords="laptop", sort_by=SortBy.PRICE_LOW_TO_HIGH)

# Specify which resources to retrieve
from amazon_creatorsapi.models import GetItemsResource
resources = [GetItemsResource.ITEMINFO_TITLE, GetItemsResource.OFFERS_LISTINGS_PRICE]
items = api.get_items(["B01N5IB20Q"], resources=resources)
