Amazon Data API MCP

What amazon-data-api-mcp does

amazon-data-api-mcp gives MCP-compatible clients access to structured Amazon data through the Amazon Data API. It covers 23 marketplaces, including the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Japan, India, Australia, and Brazil. Set the country value to select a marketplace; US is the default and the United Kingdom uses GB.

The returned data can include product titles, prices, currencies, images, ratings, availability, descriptions, category paths, product details, rankings, seller information, delivery options, deal terms, promotion details, and influencer content. Text follows the selected marketplace's language, and monetary values use its currency.

How it works

The package runs through npx as a local MCP process and sends API requests using the RAPIDAPI_KEY environment variable. Each MCP call maps to an Amazon Data API endpoint. Results include structured data and metadata such as the marketplace and fetch time.

Most requests read Amazon pages at request time or use cached data no more than 10 minutes old. Best-seller results can be cached for up to one hour. The API's free RapidAPI plan allows 100 requests per month; paid plans and usage limits are managed through RapidAPI.

Setup and configuration

Create a RapidAPI subscription for the Amazon Data API and obtain its key. The MCP configuration can launch the package without a global install:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "amazon-data": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "amazon-data-api-mcp"],
      "env": { "RAPIDAPI_KEY": "your-rapidapi-key" }
    }
  }
}

The JavaScript package requires Node.js 18 or newer. Deno, Bun, browsers, and Workers are also listed as supported runtimes for the underlying client. Claude Code can register the same server with claude mcp add and the RAPIDAPI_KEY environment variable.

Tools and capabilities

The MCP interface exposes these tools:

• search_products searches by keyword with pagination, sorting, price ranges, and categories.
• get_product retrieves product data by ASIN.
• get_reviews returns ratings, star distributions, summaries, and topic tags.
• get_best_sellers retrieves ranked lists such as Best Sellers, New Releases, and Movers & Shakers.
• get_category_products lists products without requiring a keyword.
• lookup_product resolves UPC, EAN, ISBN, or GTIN barcodes.
• get_offers lists seller prices, conditions, ratings, FBA, Prime, and delivery information.
• get_seller_products, get_seller_profile, and get_seller_reviews cover seller storefronts and feedback.
• get_deals, get_categories, search_autocomplete, and get_promotion cover shopping discovery and promotions.
• get_influencer_profile and get_influencer_posts retrieve storefront and featured-product information.

Limitations and notes

Endpoint availability differs by marketplace. An unsupported country-and-endpoint combination returns country_unavailable. Amazon may omit fields; those values are represented as null or empty arrays. For the US marketplace, logged-out pages do not expose review text, so top_reviews is empty even though ratings, breakdowns, summaries, and topic tags remain available. Full review lists requiring an Amazon login are unavailable.

RapidAPI plans have hard request limits, and the free plan requires a payment card. Developers earning Amazon Associates commissions should review their Associates agreement before using a non-Amazon data source. The package is licensed under MIT.
