Removing Items From a Cart

A customer might, at times, decide to remove some or all of the items in their remote shopping cart.

To remove all items from a cart

  • Use CartClear to remove all items from a cart.

    http://ecs.amazonaws.com/onca/xml?
Service=AWSECommerceService&
AWSAccessKeyId=[AWS Access Key ID]&
AssociateTag=ws&
Operation=CartClear&
CartId=002-2041347-9034467&
HMAC=[HMAC]

If the customer, however, wants to remove only some of the items in their cart, use CartModify and set the Quantity and CartItemId parameters appropriately, for example: 

http://ecs.amazonaws.com/onca/xml?
Service=AWSECommerceService&
AWSAccessKeyId=[AWS Access Key ID]&
Operation=CartModify&
CartId=[cart ID]&
Item.1.CartItemId=U1I8M9790QFDO7&
Item.1.Quantity=15&
Item.2.CartItemId=U3K5GRHEXU6FHK&
Item.2.Quantity=18

This request sets the quantity of the item specified by the CartItemId to 0 thereby removing it from the cart.
