Amazon Data API: client and MCP server

Endpoints

A few endpoints are not available in every marketplace (for example /search-autocomplete in IN). The RapidAPI docs have the full endpoint × marketplace table; an unavailable pair returns country_unavailable.

Marketplaces

Pass country as one of these codes (default US). Text comes back in the marketplace's language, prices in its currency.

The United Kingdom is GB, not UK.

FAQ

Is it free? The free plan on RapidAPI is 100 requests a month. RapidAPI asks for a card even on free plans. Pro is $15/month for 15,000 requests. Plans are hard limits.

Why is top_reviews empty for US? Amazon shows no review text to logged-out visitors on amazon.com, so top_reviews is always [] for US. The rating, star breakdown, summary and topic tags are still returned. Other marketplaces usually return 5 to 13 reviews. Full review lists need an Amazon login and are not available.

Why is a field null? Amazon does not show it for that product or marketplace. For example, price is null when a product is unavailable.

Is the data live? Each call reads Amazon's page at that moment, or returns a copy at most 10 minutes old (1 hour for best sellers). meta.fetched_at is when the page was read.
