how to get all amazon category products

Question

How can I get all amazon products from an existing category?

With the API, I can browse 10 pages and get for each page 10 products.

The category has 502348 products, and I would like to get them all.

Here is my code:

Amazon Product Advertising API <?php ?>
$params = array(
        'Operation' => 'ItemSearch',
        'SearchIndex'=>'Electronics',
        //'BrowseNode'=>'281052',
        'ResponseGroup'=>'small',
        //'MerchantId' => 'All',
        //'Condition'=>'New',
        'ItemPage'=>'1471',

Answer 1

Maybe you should try to add two additional search parameters in your query - MinimumPrice and MaximumPrice - in combination with the keywords, of course. Then, whenever you get more than 10 pages for your search criteria, you should correct your min/mix price values.

That's how I was able to "avoid" that unreasonable limit that amazon set.

Use the Sitemaps from the Amazon Robots.txt:
