Amazon API ItemSearch returns (400) Bad Request.
- by BuzzBubba
I'm using a simple example from Amazon documentation for ItemSearch and I get a strange error:
"The remote server returned an unexpected response: (400) Bad Request."
This is the code:
public static void Main()
{
//Remember to create an instance of the amazon service, including you Access ID.
AWSECommerceServicePortTypeClient service = new AWSECommerceServicePortTypeClient(new BasicHttpBinding(),
new EndpointAddress(
"http://webservices.amazon.com/onca/soap?Service=AWSECommerceService"));
AWSECommerceServicePortTypeClient client = new AWSECommerceServicePortTypeClient(
new BasicHttpBinding(),
new EndpointAddress("http://webservices.amazon.com/onca/soap?Service=AWSECommerceService"));
// prepare an ItemSearch request
ItemSearchRequest request = new ItemSearchRequest();
request.SearchIndex = "Books";
request.Title = "Harry+Potter";
request.ResponseGroup = new string[] { "Small" };
ItemSearch itemSearch = new ItemSearch();
itemSearch.Request = new ItemSearchRequest[] { request };
itemSearch.AWSAccessKeyId = accessKeyId;
// issue the ItemSearch request
try
{
ItemSearchResponse response = client.ItemSearch(itemSearch);
// write out the results
foreach (var item in response.Items[0].Item)
{
Console.WriteLine(item.ItemAttributes.Title);
}
}
catch(Exception e)
{
Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.Red;
Console.WriteLine(e.Message);
Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.White;
Console.WriteLine("Press any key to quit...");
Clipboard.SetText(e.Message);
}
Console.ReadKey();
What is wrong?
