What Is Mws

MWS is what is known as an integrated web service API. It’s what enables Amazon Sellers software to automatically exchange data on listings, orders, payments, reports, and more. This is also where most third party tools get their transactional data to be able to provide their own analytics services.

How do you use MWS?

  1. Go to the User Permissions page in Seller Central and log into your Amazon selling account as the primary user.
  2. Under Amazon MWS Developer Access Keys click the Visit Developer Credentials button. The Developer Central page appears. Apply for access here.

Where do I find my MWS token on Amazon?

Once you’re on the Manage Your Apps page, you should see Seller Labs listed as an authorized developer. To the right of the Seller Labs developer row, you’ll see a small blue link, labeled View, under the MWS Auth Token column. Click View and you’ll be presented with your MWS Auth Token in the same cell.
