Amazon Product Advertising API

2011-11-26 Thread Rick T

Hey guys having trouble getting this API to work.
I was using an old script from Tom Dawe (http://amazonsig.riaforge.org)
I then realized I was not getting commission, even though nothing was erroring 
out.  Found out that this script is no longer valid.

Found this new CFC (https://gist.github.com/874365), but there is no usage 
instructions... Anybody know the usage for this CFC, or a CFC that works with 
latest changes that Amazon made on their API?


Thanks in Advance,

I've integrated into Amazon using some of their AWS services, though not the 
API you're referencing. I believe they all pretty much work the same: you send 
Amazon a specifically formatted string, and HMAC encode it.

Look at the code inside of the AWS Console project on RIA Forge - I've used 
that one, and confirm that it works. It's split into a number of CFCs, so it 
should be pretty easy to pull out only what you need.

I believe the S3 project referenced in the gist you posted is valid, but I 
can't comment on it as I've never used it.
