Help – 400 Bad Request

  • Hi, I am having problems making the plugin works. I have checked all AWS root keys and Affiliate ID, everything seems to look good from Amazon side, but I cannot make the plugin works. I get:
    400 Bad Request
    ScrapeAZon could not connect to Amazon or was otherwise unable to retrieve data from Amazon. Please check your Internet connectivity, your ScrapeAZon settings, your country code, and your shortcode configuration.

    What can the problem be?
    Thank you

    Hello.

    Thanks for using ScrapeAZon.

    Try verifying that your credentials (associate ID and AWS) were created in the same Amazon site as the reviews you are attempting to retrieve. For example, if you attempt to retrieve reviews from the US site, your associate ID must have been created by using the US associate portal. Same for UK, etc.

    One way to test all your Amazon credentials is to use Amazon’s scratchpad tool here:
    https://webservices.amazon.com/scratchpad/index.html

    On the scratchpad:
    * Select ItemLookup in the sidebar
    * Select the appropriate Amazon Marketplace
    * Plug in your associate tag, your access key, and your secret key.
    * Plug in the ASIN for the item you want to lookup
    * Select “Reviews” for the Response Group
    * Click “Run Request”

    If you retrieve results, then your credentials are valid for the locale you are using. If you receive the 400 Bad Request error, you’ll need to examine your credentials and locale settings.

    Hope this helps.

    Thank you very much @jhanbackjr seems to be an error with the access key as I am getting this error message:

    Error! AWS.InvalidAccount
    HTTP Status 400: Bad Request
    Your AccessKey Id is not registered for Product Advertising API. Please use the AccessKey Id obtained after registering at https://affiliate-program.amazon.com/assoc_credentials/home.

    I really appreciate your help
