Amazon Setup - Quick Setup Wizard

The CSM for Amazon Setup Wizard streamlines the installation process, allowing you to set up your primary sales channel with minimal effort.

Note: in 2025, Amazon released their Solution Provider Portal, which is replacing the Seller Central/Develop Apps page. Based on which platform your Amazon account is on, you may need to obtain credentials in different manner.

Once you have set up a trial subscription and obtained your credentials, you are ready to set up your CSM for Amazon solution. To assist you in the creation of your primary sale channel, CSM for Amazon includes a setup wizard that streamlines the setup process.

  • Search for CSM Setup and select the related link
    • From the New section, select Amazon Quick Setup
    • "Welcome to the Amazon Quick Setup Wizard." step  
      • In the Web Service Type field, use the dropdown to select the current supported Amazon API Set: SPAPI.  It is recommended you enable all other options and choose Next (you can always change these settings later).
