@NetRushJacob Hi, can you tell me how to get the seller name by Amazon Advertising? I've never used the Amazon Advertising API, but I'd like to integrate it to get the Name. Thank you. |

@NetRushJacob Hi Jacob, There is currently no SP-API for retrieving this information. Primarily for listings use-cases, we are looking at the gaps in "context" information for integrators. For example, not knowing the available vendor codes for a given vendor account. Beyond vendor codes and account names, are there other contextual elements that your use-cases need that are not currently provided via API today? (And particularly for managing seller or vendor listings?) Thanks! |

It is possible (at least for European sellers) to obtain a seller name by scraping the html of the page https://www.amazon.co.uk/sp?marketplaceID={marketplaceID}&seller={sellerID}. This works on amazon.co.uk, amazon.fr, amazon.de, etc. Edit: I had a quick look at the equivalent page on amazon.com is https://www.amazon.com/sp?seller={sellerID} The seller name is quite neatly obtainable from the element It goes without saying that this solution requires a fallback in case of future changes to the html |

Are there any updates to the SP API in regard to obtain some sort of Seller information? The ADS API provides (user_id / name / email) through obtain Customer Profile Information (scope profile). We dont want to rely on scraping some Customer Name from the Amazon Frontend. We just need one id/name that is available on both Apis. |

Any update on this. I don't want to scrap the store name from Amazon frontend, and we don't have an advertising account. How can we fetch the name of the store by seller ID? |

Am I missing an API that can return the seller name?
I see the Sellers API, but the response doesn't appear to have the name of the seller.
Any Offer Change notifications returns the seller Id, but no name.
Amazon Advertising has the seller name, so we've added it to our data models on that side. We'd like to keep things linked and accurate to what Amazon is stating the name is. I figured I'd ask here before we go down the road of a custom set of functionalities to map everything to 'the best possible name'.
