Introduction
Amazon Seller Central is Amazon’s dashboard for third-party sellers on the Amazon marketplace. This connector reads sales, traffic, orders, and returns data from Amazon’s Selling Partner API (SP-API). The user picks one report type at connection time — Sales & Traffic (by day or by ASIN), Orders, or Returns — and Adriel refreshes that report daily. As an e-commerce connector, order, revenue, and product breakdowns are standardized so widgets can aggregate alongside ad-platform sources without additional configuration. To connect this data source, see How to connect Amazon Seller Central to Adriel.Data refresh strategy
Architecture data
Amazon Seller Central does not import a separate architecture tree — the report type chosen at connection time defines the shape of the data source.Reports data
Daily cache. Report data is fetched from Amazon SP-API on a daily schedule; dashboards read from the cached snapshot rather than triggering live requests. Refresh schedule. The cache refreshes daily at 10:00 UTC (rolling 2-day window). Initial back-fill. After connection, the last 90 days of historic data is retrieved. Payment vs order date. For Orders reports, attribution uses the Amazonpurchase-date field, converted to yyyy-MM-dd. For Returns reports, attribution uses return_request_date.
Report types
One report type is chosen at data source creation and cannot be changed later. Each type maps to a distinct SP-API report family with its own file format and chunk cadence.Date range limits
Metrics
How to read the columnsThe Data type column uses this vocabulary: Number, Currency, Percentage, Ratio, Duration, Date, Text, URL, Array, Boolean.The API Key column in code style like
unitsOrdered is the literal SP-API report field. Because each report type has its own dynamic schema, the exact set of fields that appear for a given data source is populated after the first successful sync.Orders and revenue (Sales & Traffic reports)
Traffic (Sales & Traffic reports)
Order details (Orders report)
Returns (Returns report)
Breakdowns
Report-type-scoped. Available breakdowns depend on the report type chosen at connection time. Some breakdowns exist only for specific reports.

Overview & status
Limitations
- Report type is fixed at connection time. To view a different report, connect a new data source with that report type selected.
- Cross-report joins are not supported. Each report type stores data in its own isolated table with its own schema.
- 90-day historical back-fill. Data older than 90 days from the connection date cannot be retrieved.
- Marketplace-currency reporting. Monetary values are reported in the marketplace’s configured currency; Adriel applies currency conversion at query time when combining with other reporting currencies.
- Availability may be restricted. Amazon Seller Central connections are gated by workspace allowlist while the integration is finalized with Amazon.
- Marketplace permission scope. If Amazon rejects the marketplace for the connected user, the connection is marked disconnected and returns
EXTERNAL_SERVICE_PERMISSION_MISSING.
