How to get AWS book information?


I'm trying to get info like title, authors and image and I've been looking for that for some time! I have read the documentation but I have not been successful.

Doing this with Google is quite trivial, I simply require what I need directly in the URL, for example: https://www.googleapis.com/books/v1/volumes?q=harry+potter

But I can't find a similar link in AWS services. Is there, in fact, any url where I can request book information?

I know Amazon.com retail is separate from AWS and I think I should use the Amazon product API. But how to do it?


Solution

  • I'm not an Amazon Web Services expert but I believe what you're looking for is here: https://webservices.amazon.com/paapi5/documentation/search-items.html

    In short, you need more or less of this here:

    1. Register an api key;
    2. Send a request;
    3. Verify and consume response;
