An Amazon authorization connects an Amazon account to your Kuudo organization. The person with permission to approve access signs in to Amazon and grants Kuudo the permissions shown during the consent flow. Kuudo then lists the authorization in the selected organization's Authorizations page.
Choose the Amazon account to connect
Kuudo supports authorizations for two Amazon products:
- Amazon Selling Partner API (SP-API): connects a Seller Central or Vendor Central account. Choose the account type and marketplace when starting the authorization.
- Amazon Ads: connects an advertising account. Choose the Amazon Ads region when starting the authorization.
Each product needs a separate authorization. If your team works with both Selling Partner and Amazon Ads, connect each one. The available accounts, marketplaces, profiles and operations depend on the Amazon permissions granted and the account you select.
Connect your account or invite its owner
You can connect your own account from Authorizations, or an organization owner or administrator can create an invitation for someone else. The recipient signs in to Amazon and approves access directly; they do not need a Kuudo account or need to share their Amazon login. An invitation connects an Amazon account and does not add the recipient to your Kuudo organization.
Invitations are specific to the selected Amazon product and account settings. The person creating one copies and shares its link with the intended recipient. An invitation expires after seven days, and Kuudo does not send an email automatically.
To connect your own account, see Connect and Manage Amazon Authorizations. To invite a brand, client or advertising manager, see Invite Someone to Authorize an Amazon Account.
Keep Amazon authorization and client access separate
An Amazon authorization grants Kuudo access to an Amazon account within the permissions approved through Amazon. Connecting an AI client or another tool to Kuudo is a separate step. A connected tool can use the authorizations its Kuudo access policy allows; connecting a tool does not automatically grant it every Amazon account in the organization.
When working across accounts, confirm the intended authorization and marketplace or advertising profile before running a task. See MCP Client Configuration for client connection details.
Review and manage access
The Authorizations page shows connections for the current organization. Depending on an authorization's status, you can refresh its account information, reauthorize it, or remove it from Kuudo. Removing an authorization stops Kuudo from using it; to fully revoke Kuudo's access, also remove it in Seller Central or the Amazon Ads console, as applicable.
The authorization instructions explain how to review connections and troubleshoot an incomplete authorization.
