Amazon SP-API Gears Up for Major Deprecations in December 2025
Amazon is reminding developers of upcoming significant changes to its Selling Partner API (SP-API). Several resources are slated for deprecation, with calls to these endpoints set to fail after their respective removal dates. This proactive announcement aims to give developers ample time to update their integrations and avoid service disruptions.
Key Takeaways
- Deprecated SP-API resources will cease functioning after their removal dates.
- Specific datasets from the Data Kiosk and report types from the Reports API are affected.
- Developers must update their systems before the specified deadlines to ensure continued API access.
Data Kiosk API Changes
The Data Kiosk API will see the removal of a specific dataset on February 26, 2026. The dataset identified for removal is analytics_salesAndTraffic_2023_11_15. Developers relying on this particular dataset should migrate to newer versions or alternative solutions before this date to prevent any interruption in their data retrieval processes.
Reports API Deprecations
In addition to the Data Kiosk, the Reports API is also subject to upcoming changes. Two report type values have a deprecation date of March 25, 2026. These are:
GET_V2_SETTLEMENT_REPORT_DATA_FLAT_FILEGET_V2_SETTLEMENT_REPORT_DATA_XML
These report types are crucial for accessing settlement data in different formats. Sellers and developers utilizing these reports need to prepare for their discontinuation and identify compatible replacements within the SP-API to continue receiving essential financial and sales information.
What Developers Need to Do
Amazon's announcement serves as a critical reminder for all developers integrating with the SP-API. It is imperative to review current API usage and identify any dependencies on the resources scheduled for deprecation. Proactive migration and testing of updated integrations are essential to ensure a smooth transition and avoid potential operational issues. Further details and a comprehensive list of deprecation dates can be found in the official SP-API documentation.
