SP-API stands for Amazon Selling Partner API.

Last updated: June 2026

SP-API — Amazon Selling Partner API: The SP-API (Selling Partner API) is Amazon’s official developer API for seller data and actions — orders, listings, inventory, finance and more. Tools built on SP-API read and write through Amazon’s sanctioned, OAuth-authorised gateway, not by scraping Seller Central.

In depth

SP-API is the modern replacement for Amazon’s old MWS API. Sellers grant access by OAuth, and the connection is governed by Amazon’s Data Protection Policy. Building on SP-API (plus the Amazon Ads API) means data is accurate, permissioned and durable — unlike browser scrapers that break when pages change and can violate Amazon’s terms.
