How to Use the Amazon Selling Partner MCP in VS Code Copilot

Q: How do we configure the Amazon Selling Partner MCP Server for a team in VS Code Copilot?

Create a .vscode/mcp.json file in your repository root and define the MCP server. Once committed, any team member with VS Code 1.96+ and Copilot can access the Amazon tools in Agent mode.

Q: Can VS Code Copilot write database sync scripts using Amazon Selling Partner order schemas?

Yes. VS Code Copilot calls listorders and getorderitems to fetch real payloads, which it then uses to write highly accurate SQL schemas and data migration scripts.

Q: How does the Amazon Selling Partner server handle bulk catalog reports in VS Code Copilot?

Copilot calls createreport to request the listing export and monitors it with getreportstatus. The resulting data is fed directly into your editor context to help write catalog parsers.

Q: Can we search the Amazon catalog directly from VS Code Copilot?

Yes, your developers can run searchcatalog through Copilot Chat to look up ASIN details, product categories, and active marketplace listings during development.

Give your entire engineering team shared access to Amazon Selling Partner data inside VS Code Copilot.

Share the Amazon Selling Partner MCP Server across your team

The `get_catalog_item` and `list_product_types` tools allow VS Code Copilot to fetch live API schemas directly into your editor. Commit your MCP Server configuration to your repository using `.vscode/mcp.json` to get everyone on the same page. This shared setup ensures everyone builds features against the same Amazon API schema, eliminating bugs. Your team can collaboratively write integration code that relies on real catalog structures.

Trace financial events and orders in Copilot Chat

The `list_financial_events` and `list_orders` tools let VS Code Copilot query live transaction logs and order items. Your developers can debug payment flows and shipping issues together. Instead of sharing screenshots of Seller Central, developers inspect the raw JSON payloads directly in the editor. This speeds up root-cause analysis when tracking down missing order details or payout discrepancies.

Monitor FBA inventory levels during development

The `list_fba_inventory` tool gives VS Code Copilot access to actual stock levels across all your active marketplaces. Build and test restocking algorithms with live data. By using this MCP Server, your agent can write and test scripts that pull data via `create_report` and `get_report_status`, ensuring your automated inventory updates handle real Amazon reports correctly.
