AssociateTag Parameter
An
AssociateTag
is an alphanumeric token distributed by Amazon that uniquely identifies an
Associate. It is the means by which Amazon credits an Associate for a sale. As
we will see in a later section, the
AssociateTag
becomes part of the
PurchaseURL, which is the URL used to purchase the items
in a remote shopping cart. You must include an AssociateTag
in a CartCreate request.
If a request does not contain an
AssociateTag, Product Advertising API returns an
error.
Be careful when you specify an
AssociateTag
in the
CartCreate
request. Errors are not returned for incorrect values.
