Where I can get complete list of Amazon MWS product categories?

Question

I need to develop application that send feed submissions via amazon mws. But I'm currently in trouble, because when you send new product to amazon you must specify product category. I found list of categories for different endpoints in the Amazon Marketplace Web Service Products API Section Reference but I believe this isn't the complete list of categories, because those main categories also have child categories that are not listed.

I searched all over the internet but I'm still stuck. Also looked in the api docs if I can send request to list all available categories but no luck yet. Any help will be welcome guys.

Sorry for my bad english :)

Solution 1

For a list of product categories ( and the sub categories ) you will need to log into seller central, then help -> Manage inventory -> Reference -> Tree Guides.

Alternatively here is the link. Note, you will still need to authenticate for that link to work.

Solution 2

We know Country BTG files contain all categories, such as: https://d1c723f3ouvz7y.cloudfront.net/US_btg.xlsx

You can now certainty deduct other countries BTG URL... for example for canada, it would be:

https://d1c723f3ouvz7y.cloudfront.net/CA_btg.xlsx
