Quickly Convert from Amazon MWS API's to Amazon SP-API
InfiPlex offers Amazon Sellers the quickest and most cost effective way to convert their current in-house Amazon MWS order application to use the new Amazon SP-API. InfiPlex Inventory and Order Management System (OMS) API allows Amazon Sellers to leverage the Amazon approved InfiPlex OMS SP-API application to manage all of your order data. The information below outlines the conversion process.
- Conversion Overview:
This overview outlines the process to use the InfiPlex OMS SP-API application to pull Amazon order data into an existing in-house application that is using the old Amazon MWS integration. The conversion will include all order data, including restricted PII data, which is the ship to address for Amazon orders.
- Connecting Your Seller Account to the Amazon SP-API
It only takes a few minutes to connct your InfiPlex account to your Amazon Seller account to use the Amazon SP-API. You can reference the connection set-up here. Once connected, new orders will automatically start getting pulled by InfiPlex.
- Connect Your In-house Application to the InfiPlex API
The InfiPlex REST API can be used to pull all Amazon order data into your internal systems. All order data is available via the API. Please note that due to PII Data Security requirements by Amazon, that the order PII Data (ship to address) is only available for a limited time after the order is actually placed.Estimated Coding Times are specific to calling the function within the InfiPlex API and mapping data. It does not take into account time required by your programming team to code to or from your internal systems.
- Authentication:
Authentication uses standard REST authentication via Bearer token. Contact InfiPlex Support to receive your API Key and URL.Estimated Coding Time: 20 minutes
- Pull Orders:
Use the GET Order Search to pull your orders. It is recommended that you use the date_created_greater_equal_than parameter to pull any new orders since the last time you checked for orders. Before you insert any order you should also check to make sure the order has not been previously inserted to eliminate any duplicate orders.Estimated Coding Time: 2 - 3 hours
- Send Package/Tracking Information:
Use the POST Order Tracking Create function to update InfiPlex with tracking and package information. InfiPlex will then automatically send the tracking information to the marketplace the order came from.Estimated Coding Time: 2 - 3 hours
- Send Inventory Levels:
Use the POST Inventory Set Bulk function to send inventory level updates on all of your SKUs. This should be done at least once a day from your internal inventory system. If you connect your internal systems to other marketplaces and pull orders, you should update inventory more than once a day. You can also reference our Inventory Set-up to Eliminate Overselling article to review how you can leverage InfiPlex to better manage inventory levels on marketplaces.Estimated Coding Time: 1 hour
- API Support:
Email Support is included for the API connection, and we can help with any questions your programming team may have regarding our API.
- Authentication:
The total Estimated Coding Time specific to InfiPlex should be approximately 8 hours. Depending on how your internal systems are set-up, total coding time should be no more than 24 - 40 hours.
