API to upload to Amazon kindle e-books store

Gabius · 09-11-2014, 12:46 PM

Hello

Can anyone advice where to get hold of technical documentation of Amazons kindle e-book stores API? We want to connect our e-book creation tool to their service for easier uploads for our clients.

Like this:

Create book in our system - Fill in amazon information - press upload in our system - Book uploaded to amazon by our system

Anyone that can advice? Amazon seems not to be able to provide a clear answer, we get different answers.

If you are a big 5 publisher, Amazon might be willing to let you connect. Or even see the documentation.

Failing that, you can automate stuff via POST requests, possibly using cURL as a command-line backend.
