Making Web Services Work at Amazon

Response to: SOAP Bloat and poor uptime
Hey, I am in the same boat as Juan Carlos Gonzalez, my company has just started the merchant integration process as well in the .net framework with little luck. I admit I have very limited experience with soap and web services and have spent the last week beating my head against the wall trying to make heads or tails of half the information on the Amazon integration website.


Any help or guidance would be great


-Thanks

    Hey Matt, I have found an easy way to create the xml feed to Amazon, I generated classes based on the xsd files, and then use the serialize method.
    My problem now is in communicating with Amazon, their support is worthless, I'm getting an unauthorize message. They said I have to force .net to preauthenticate, I have tried so many different ways with no results. Are you there yet?

      .NET preauthentication to comply with Amazon's SOAP framework is indeed tricky. Don't forget that you must also override the DIME encoding methods with SWA compliant methods.

        I see now that Amazon.com has a DIME version of it's SOAP platform available for Microsoft.NET users. Does anyone have any better examples that the one on the Seller Central help pages?

          Hi,


          We are new to Amazon merchant Integration and we are using PHP and/or Perl. Unfortunately, we cannot see any resource that would help us in our integration.


          As of now, and after some weeks already, we are still trying to find a way to connect to the SOAP server (merchant) of Amazon.


          We tried using NuSOAP and PEAR::Soap in PHP, and tried as well SOAP::Lite and HTTP::POST in Perl to no avail. There seems to be a deadlock somewhere that we couldn't establish a connection. Btw, we have no problem connecting with unsecure connection (not HTTPS).


          Will anyone there could be of help?


          Thank you.
