How to access more than 10 item's detail in Amazon api using php?

amazon-web-services, api, php

Solution

Yes, you would need to loop through 10 times and appends an array or object. The AWS documentation says that `ItemPage` is actually the page of results, so you would just need to page through it 10 times to get your 100 results.

AWS Documentation on `ItemPage`:

http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSECommerceService/latest/DG/PagingThroughResults.html

$obj = new AmazonProductAPI();

$results = array();

for ($i=1;$i<=10;$i++) {
    $parameters = array("Operation"     => "ItemSearch",
                 "SearchIndex"   => "Electronics",
                 "ResponseGroup" => "Images,ItemAttributes,EditorialReview,Offers ",  
                 "ItemPage"=>$i,
                 "Keywords" => $search);

    $results[] = $obj->searchProducts($parameters);

}

foreach ($results as $r) {
    //do your stuff
}

Problem

I am working with amazon api and have used code from online sources http://www.codediesel.com/php/accessing-amazon-product-advertising-api-in-php/. I would like to get more than 10 product's detail when I make a search query using amazon api. I am aware about the amazon api policy of getting 10 data per call but is it possible to get more data by creating loop or something? When I make a request I have assigned following parameteres ``` $parameters = array("Operation" => "ItemSearch", "SearchIndex" => "Electronics", "ResponseGroup" => "Images,ItemAttributes,EditorialReview,Offers ", "ItemPage"=>"10", "Keywords" => $search ); ``` So even though I have asked for 10 pages of result, I am unsure of how to display data from every page (1 to 10 ) so in total I get 100 items when I make a query. I get following response when I try to make run the code: ``` SimpleXMLElement Object ( [Request] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [IsValid] => True [ItemSearchRequest] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [ItemPage] => 10 [Keywords] => laptop [ResponseGroup] => Array ( [0] => Images [1] => ItemAttributes [2] => EditorialReview [3] => Offers ) [SearchIndex] => Electronics ) ) [TotalResults] => 3383691 [TotalPages] => 338370 [MoreSearchResultsUrl] => http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/redirect.html?camp=2025&creative=12734&location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.co.uk%2Fgp%2Fsearch%3Fkeywords%3Dlaptop%26url%3Dsearch-.................(and on) ) ```
