Hi,

The feature I want doesn't sound possible to me, but I want your expert opinion before I give up on the idea.

I'm using the Amazon plugin with Mighty Resources to allow organizations to request specific books. The link includes my Amazon affiliate ID - obviously - and I want to keep that. Is there any way to pull a shipping address from Amazon based on the identity of the organization requesting a book.

I understand that, in the unlikely case that this is possible, I'll be looking at paying for a customization.

Thanks.

Hi, the Amazon plugin uses the Amazon Product Advertising API. It can only return information that is publicly available, and for obvious privacy reasons that won't include customer information such as delivery address.

Having said that, the product advertising API does offer quite a lot of other facilities in addition to those used in the plugin, including the possibility to create a remote shopping cart (ie one hosted on the Amazon server)for a customer. It is possible that something like that might meet your needs.

I think that you might find it helpful to look at the Amazon's developer guide for the product advertising API. The text is fairly informative about the services available, even if you have problems following the coding examples - you can skip those.

You can see this at

If you think that this is something you might be interested in then I will be happy to discuss this further with you.

Thanks for the fast response. I'll put together a concise description of exactly what I would like to accomplish and send it to you directly.

Thanks again.
