# data.world & Amazon Marketplace Web Service (MWS) Connector
[](https://heroku.com/deploy?template=https://github.com/datadotworld/dw-mws-connector)
## Getting Started
1. [Create a dataset](https://data.world/create-a-dataset) on data.world
2. You will need your own [Heroku](https://www.heroku.com) account
3. Deploy to Heroku by pressing the fancy-looking button above
* This integration allows you to save all of the reports into one dataset or to multiple datasets. For the latter,
take a look at the [Storing Reports in Multiple Datasets](#storing-reports-in-multiple-datasets) section.
* `App name` is optional as one will be automatically assigned, but we recommend something descriptive
* Take a look at the [Config Vars](#config-vars) section for more details on the individual configuration variables
* The initial deployment will take a couple of minutes as it's pulling your historical data
4. Once deployment is done, click on 'Manage App' to go to the app's 'Overview' page
5. Under 'Installed add-ons', click on 'Heroku Scheduler'
6. Add a new job. The command to use is `update_reports`.
* Note that times are in UTC. Use a timezone converter if you would like your job to run at a specific local time.
As an example, the following job is scheduled to run daily at 8 AM CDT:

### Storing Reports in Multiple Datasets
As mentioned in [Config Vars](#config-vars), you can skip certain reports by leaving the associated filename field
blank. If you wanted each report in a separate dataset, you can do so by performing multiple deployments, and
only including the name of one filename on each deployment.
This is a good option when you have a ton of data and you're concerned about blowing past a dataset's size limits.
### Config Vars
* The various `_FILENAME` variables determine both the name of the files, as well as which reports to place on that
dataset. To skip a report, simply leave the name blank.
* `START_DATE:` How far back to pull your historical data. Format: `2017-01-01`
* `LAST_THIRTY_DAYS:` If the value is set to TRUE, it will always pull the last 30 days of data,
regardless of `START_DATE`
* `DW_TOKEN:` Pay a visit to https://data.world/settings/advanced and copy the Read/Write token
* `DW_DATASET_SLUG:` As an example, if the URL of your dataset were `https://data.world/my-org/my-cool-dataset`,
the dataset slug would be `my-org/my-cool-dataset`
* `MARKETPLACE_IDS:` Marketplace IDs for the marketplaces you are registered to sell in. For the US market, use
`ATVPDKIKX0DER`. Values for other markets can be found
[here](http://docs.developer.amazonservices.com/en_US/dev_guide/DG_Endpoints.html). Multiple markets can be checked
by including them as a comma-separated list, such as `ATVPDKIKX0DER,A2EUQ1WTGCTBG2`
* The remaining variables are your Amazon MWS credentials that you receive upon registering as a developer.
Instructions for doing so are available [here](http://docs.developer.amazonservices.com/en_US/dev_guide/DG_Registering.html).
