What it is and what it does
python-amazon-sp-api is a wrapper around Amazon's Selling Partner API that abstracts away the complexity of authentication, request signing, and response parsing. It provides both synchronous and asynchronous clients for interacting with Amazon seller services—orders, reports, feeds, and data queries—through a straightforward Python interface.
The library uses httpx for HTTP transport with connection pooling support, cachetools for caching, confuse for configuration management, and typing-extensions for type hints. It is actively maintained and designed to be extensible for new endpoints. The async client under sp_api.asyncio supports non-blocking calls for high-concurrency scenarios.
Use it for
- Automate order retrieval and processing for sellers managing inventory across Amazon marketplaces
- Generate and download merchant reports on a scheduled basis without manual seller central interaction
- Submit product feeds and bulk updates to Amazon programmatically
- Query sales and traffic analytics through the Data Kiosk API for business intelligence
- Build async-based integrations that handle multiple API calls concurrently without blocking
