Lists

Product Advertising API: 2009-11-01

Lists are collections of items for sale. Customers create lists and they apply their own logic for the items they place on the list. Customers create lists using the list creation tools on their Your Account page, which is found on www.Amazon.com. Product Advertising API does not provide an operation to enable a customer to create a list.

ListSearch supports the list types described in the following table.

ListDescription
BabyRegistryBaby registries contain items that expectant parents want . Gift givers can find baby registries created on Amazon or other stores.
WeddingRegistryWedding registries contain items that a wedding couple wants.
WishListWish lists contain items for birthdays, anniversaries or any other special day. These lists help others know what the wishlist creator wants.

These lists are public by default after the user creates them. A user can, however, make the lists private using the “Your Account” page, which is accessed as a tab on www.amazon.com. In those cases, the lists cannot be accessed by ListSearch.

The following Amazon lists are not supported by ListSearch:

For example, when you send an ItemLookup request and use the Small response group, the links included in the response will add the item to the appropriate list. The links look similar to the following:
