- You (the publisher) — so you get your share of the commission.
- The brand — so they know which creator drove the sale.
Single-link generation
UsePOST /generate_attribution_link when you’re creating one link at a time:
Picking a marketplace
marketplace controls which Amazon marketplace the link points to. Defaults to
amazon.com. See Marketplaces for the full list.
Picking a link name
link_name is just for your own bookkeeping — it shows up in reports and
listings so you can tell links apart later. Common patterns: campaign name,
video title, channel + date.
Bulk generation
UsePOST /bulk_generate_attribution_links when you need to create a lot of
links at once:
202 Accepted immediately with a job_id. Generation
happens in the background and we email you a CSV when it’s done — no need to
poll. Up to 5,000 ASINs per request.
The CSV has one row per submitted ASIN:
| Column | What it is |
|---|---|
ASIN | The product identifier you submitted. |
Marketplace | The marketplace you asked for. |
Link Name | Your label for the link. |
Attribution URL | The generated URL — blank if the row failed. |
Status | ok if it worked, error otherwise. |
Error | Explanation for failed rows. |
Listing your links
UseGET /get_all_links to page through links you’ve created. Filter by marketplace with marketplace=… (defaults to
amazon.com; pass all to span every marketplace).
When links go wrong
The most common failure modes:- ASIN not found — the product isn’t in the catalog for the chosen marketplace. Double-check the ASIN and marketplace.
- Brand not granting access — you’re not currently approved to promote that brand. Reach out to the brand or to Archer support.
- Amazon attribution service unavailable — transient. Retry in a few seconds for single-link calls, or resubmit the failed CSV rows for bulk.
