Working with Resale Authorizations

You can use the AWS Marketplace Catalog API to automate tasks for working with Resale Authorizations.

While the product describes what is being sold in AWS Marketplace, the Resale Authorization (also known as an opportunity) describes the terms and rules regarding how this product is authorized to be resold in AWS Marketplace. The CPPO is the target of the Resale Authorization.

A Resale Authorization has a collection of terms and rules to be accepted for a reseller agreement between manufacturers and channel partners. Accepting the terms of the Resale Authorization allows the reseller to create offers for the product per the conditions expressed in the terms.

There are two types of rules in a Resale Authorization:

  • AvailabilityRule – Controls the lifecycle of the Resale Authorization in AWS Marketplace.

  • PartnerTargetingRule – Specifies whether the Resale Authorization should be accessible to a specific set of channel partners.

See the following resources:

The following topics describe how to use the Catalog API to create and update Resale Authorizations:

Resale Authorization prerequisites

To use Resale Authorization, both independent software vendors (ISVs) and AWS Marketplace Channel Partners must create a service-linked role that provides resource-sharing permissions to AWS. If both groups don’t perform this prerequisite, AWS can’t share the authorization resource from the ISV to the AWS Marketplace Channel Partner. For more information, see Using roles for Resale Authorization for AWS Marketplace in the AWS Marketplace Seller Guide.

Create a new Resale Authorization

You can use the Catalog API to create a new Resale Authorization in AWS Marketplace.

If your request is processed successfully, AWS Marketplace Catalog API generates a Resale Authorization in Draft state for you. It’s an incomplete Resale Authorization and not visible to channel partners in AWS Marketplace.

Use the Update change types to complete the Resale Authorization. After the Resale Authorization is completed, use the ReleaseResaleAuthorization change type to complete the Resale Authorization creation process and release the Resale Authorization, which will validate the entire Resale Authorization and make your it visible to channel partners in AWS Marketplace.

To create a Resale Authorization in Draft state, call the StartChangeSet API operation with the CreateResaleAuthorization change type, as shown in the following example.

Request Syntax

POST /StartChangeSet HTTP/1.1 
Content-type: application/json

{
  "Catalog": "AWSMarketplace",
  "ChangeSet":
  [
    {
      "ChangeType": "CreateResaleAuthorization",
      "ChangeName": "xyz",
      "Entity":
      {
        "Type": "ResaleAuthorization@1.0"
      },
      "DetailsDocument":
      {
        "ProductId": "prod-ad8EXAMPLE51",
        "Name": "Test ResaleAuthorization",
        "Description": "Worldwide ResaleAuthorization for Test Product",
        "ResellerAccountId": "777788889999"
      }
    }
  ]
}

Provide information for the input fields to add the CreateResaleAuthorization change type:

  • Entity (object) (required) – Your Resale Authorization.

    • Type (string) (required) – The Type is always ResaleAuthorization@1.0.

  • DetailsDocument (object) (required) – Specifics of the request.

    • ProductId (string) (required) – Product ID for which to create the resale authorization.

    • Name (string) (required) – Name associated with the ResaleAuthorization for better readability to you and your channel partners.

    • Description (string) (optional) – A free-form text field available to add details about the ResaleAuthorization.

    • ResellerAccountId (string) (required) – Add targeted channel partner’s AWS account who can describe and use this ResaleAuthorization to create a private offer.

Response Syntax

A change set is created for your request. The response to this request gives you the ChangeSetId and ChangeSetArn for the change set and looks like the following.

{
  "ChangeSetId": "example123456789012abcdef",
  "ChangeSetArn": "arn:aws:aws-marketplace:us-east-1:123456789012:AWSMarketplace/ChangeSet/example123456789012abcdef"
}

The change request is added to a queue and processed.

You can check the status of the request through the AWS Marketplace Management Portal, or directly through Catalog API using the DescribeChangeSet API operation.

When the request is complete (if the Status is SUCCEEDED), a new ResaleAuthorization is generated. Although the SUCCEEDED status indicates that the CreateResaleAuthorization change type call is completed, the ResaleAuthorization status is still in Draft state.

The following shows the response from the DescribeChangeSet API operation.

{
  "ChangeSetId": "example123456789012abcdef",
