External Services

Amazon Creators API

CategoView for Amazon connects to Amazon through the Amazon Creators API to retrieve product information.

The plugin sends the Amazon Creators API credentials entered in the plugin settings, along with the selected Amazon marketplace, Associate Tag, and Browse Node ID, as required for authentication and product retrieval.

Product information returned by Amazon is saved as a catalog on your WordPress site and used to display products on the front end.

Use of the Amazon Creators API is subject to the Amazon Associates Program and other applicable Amazon terms and licenses for each marketplace.
