How do I rotate my Amazon (LWA) credentials?

All credentials must be rotated every 180 days. If the LWA credentials are not rotated, CSM will lose access to SP-API. Follow these steps to rotate LWA credentials (client secret) and update the API credentials in CSM.

 

How to rotate LWA credentials:

  1. Sign in to your developer account on Seller Central,  or Developer Central and navigate to the Developer Console page that lists all your applications.
  2. From the LWA credentials column, find the expiration alert and select View.
  3. Choose Rotate secret, read the warning, then choose Rotate secret again.
  4. Save the new secret key in a secure place. This will be used to update your CSM credentials.

Follow the steps below to update the secret key in CSM.

  1. In Business Central, open the Sales Channel page for Amazon, click Actions > API and Automation > API Credentials. This will open the CSM API credentials page.
  2. The secret key will need to be updated in three sections for three CSM functions:

  3.  Open each one to update. The client secret will be placed in two fields. One in the AWS            Signature fasttab and the second in the OAuth 2.0 fasttab.:

  4.  Once completed, test the communication to ensure access to the SP-API.
