How do I connect my Amazon accounts?
DataDoe connects to three kinds of Amazon accounts:
- Seller Central: for sellers. You can also attach Amazon Ads to the same account.
- Vendor Central: for vendors. You can also attach Amazon Ads to the same account.
- Amazon Ads only: for advertisers who manage only Amazon Ads, without access to Seller Central or Vendor Central.
Add a separate connection for each marketplace. After you connect an account, DataDoe starts the initial load.
How do I connect a Seller or Vendor?
- On the Home page (opens in a new tab), select Connect your first Seller or Vendor. If you already have accounts, open the Accounts page (opens in a new tab) and select Connect new account.
- Choose the account type and the marketplace.
- Authorize DataDoe in Seller Central or Vendor Central.
- Optionally, connect Amazon Ads for the same account and choose the Ads profile. DataDoe suggests the profile that matches your Seller or Vendor.
How do I connect only Amazon Ads?
- On the Home page (opens in a new tab), select Connect Amazon Ads only. If you already have accounts, open the Accounts page (opens in a new tab) and select Connect Amazon Ads only.
- Choose the marketplace.
- Authorize DataDoe in Amazon Ads.
- Choose one Ads profile. Repeat these steps to add more profiles.
What is not available for Amazon Ads only accounts?
Amazon Ads only accounts include advertising data, PPC reports, and Amazon Ads Actions. The following features need Seller Central or Vendor Central data:
| Feature | Needs |
|---|---|
| Search Query Performance | Seller Central |
| Cost of Goods (COGS) and P&L reports | Seller Central |
| Orders, inventory, and settlements data | Seller Central or Vendor Central |
| Listing, order, and other Seller or Vendor Actions | Seller Central or Vendor Central |
Can I attach Seller or Vendor Central to an Amazon Ads only account later?
Yes. Open the Ads tab on the Accounts page (opens in a new tab), select Connect selling partner next to the account, choose Seller or Vendor, and authorize DataDoe in Amazon. The marketplace stays the same as the Amazon Ads connection. DataDoe keeps the existing Ads data and adds the Seller or Vendor data to the same account.
