You can use your credentials as follows passing it to the client as a dict. Please review the full documentation to see all posibilities to include your credentials.

refresh_token='your-refresh_token',
client_id='your-client_id',
client_secret='your-client_secret',
profile_id='your-profile_id',
)

YAML Credentials
Use a credentials.yml file with your credentials for more convenience and manage diferent accounts or profiles. Amazon requires one profile per marketplace so it is helpful to keep all in one file and switch directly from the code, using the account.

refresh_token: 'your-refresh-token'
client_id: 'your-client-id'
client_secret: 'your-client-secret'
profile_id: 'your-profile-id'
germany:
refresh_token: 'other-refresh-token'
client_id: 'other-client-id'
client_secret: 'other-client-secret'
profile_id: 'other-profile-id'
Python code
from ad_api.api import sponsored_products
result=sponsored_products.Campaigns().list_campaigns()
result=sponsored_products.Campaigns(account="germany").list_campaigns()

Marketplaces
Marketplaces are used to define basically the API endpoints Amazon need to use depending on the regions, by default it will use EU so if you are using one of the marketplaces that are under the Europe (EU). Covers UK, FR, IT, ES, DE, NL, AE, SE, PL, and TR marketplaces you can skip. If you are using either North America (NA) or Far East (FE), you will need import from base and pass the marketplace as follows:
from ad_api.api import sponsored_products
from ad_api.base import Marketplaces
result=sponsored_products.Campaigns(marketplace=Marketplaces.NA).list_campaigns()
Exceptions
You can use a try except statement when you call the API and catch exceptions if some problem ocurred:
from ad_api.api import sponsored_products
from ad_api.base import AdvertisingApiException
try:
result = sponsored_products.Campaigns().get_campaign_extended(
campaignId=campaign_id
)
logging.info(result)
except AdvertisingApiException as error:
logging.info(error)
Debug
Use debug=True if you want see some logs like the header you submit to the api endpoint, the method and path used among the params and the data submitted if any, to trace some possible errors.
from ad_api.api import sponsored_products
from ad_api.base import AdvertisingApiException
try:
result = sponsored_products.Campaigns(debug=True).get_campaign_extended(
campaignId=campaign_id
)
logging.info(result)
except AdvertisingApiException as error:
logging.info(error)
import logging
from ad_api.api import Profiles
from ad_api.base import AdvertisingApiException
logging.basicConfig(
level=logging.DEBUG,
format="%(asctime)s:%(levelname)s:%(message)s"
)
def register_assistant(value: str):
logging.info("-------------------------------------")
logging.info("Profiles > register_assistant(%s)" % value)
logging.info("-------------------------------------")
try:
result = Profiles(debug=True).register_assistant(
country_code=value
)
logging.info(result)
except AdvertisingApiException as error:
logging.info(error)
if __name__ == '__main__':
amz_country_code = "ES"
register_assistant(amz_country_code)
Or you could do with a curl command, note the {"countryCode":"ES"} that refers to the marketplace you will operate.
curl \
-X PUT \
-H "Content-Type:application/json" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer Your-Token \
-H "Amazon-Advertising-API-ClientId: your-client-id" \
--data '{"countryCode":"ES"}' \
