Overview

Amazon Data Portability offers authorized third parties the capability to programmatically import Amazon customers' data to an app or website after the customers give authorization through Login With Amazon (LWA).

Amazon Data Portability transfers customers' data from Amazon to your app or website based on customer-selected Data Portability LWA Scopes. The LWA Scopes define the type of data the customers are authorizing third parties to access. See LWA Scopes for details.

This document explains how Amazon Data Portability works and guides you through these three-high level sections: (1) configure the Amazon Data Portability service, (2) authorize your app and/or website, and (3) connect with Amazon Data Portability API. You need to complete the steps in each section before your app or website can import customers' data.

Amazon Data Portability enables customers to programmatically transfer their eligible Amazon data to authorized third party apps or websites. The availability and scope of portable data may vary based on applicable regulations and the customer's registered location. For marketplace data, this includes transactions from Belgium, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Spain, and Sweden. For device-related data, eligibility is determined based on the customer's registered location and applicable regional requirements.

📘 This document assumes that you have an app or website ("Application") ready to add the Login With Amazon button. This doesn’t cover guidelines on how to build an Application.
