Get the Amazon Store Link before submitting?

BigDave

I want to have the amazon store link for a "rate this game" button before the games is in the store.

In iTunes you can click on the Store link in iTunes connect before the app actually is live.

Is there any way like this in the Amazon store? I can't find anything.

Found that:
https://developer.amazon.com/appsandservices/apis/earn/in-app-purchasing/docs/deeplink

Link to the Amazon Retail Website This type of link will be picked up by the Amazon Client as well as any installed browsers on the device. http://www.amazon.com/gp/mas/dl/android?

Link directly to the Amazon Client This specially formatted link is the preferred method and will directly open up the Amazon Client. amzn://apps/android?

did you guys already tested if that works, I unfortunately do not have any android device.

BigDave

OK i figured a way for anyone who is interested.

1. Upload a build and submit. (with missing link)
2. Cancle submission
3. Wait 1 hour
4. On the app page press the wheel, there is now the option view on Amazon.com

Bäm that's your link.

Still kind of annoying for me and the testers since you have to reject it once it its "in review" I have 10 apps ahead..

game on

I like Big Dave. He has a real pic.

Amazons process is very old fashion now. Communication is even worse. It's the price you pay I guess because in terms of sales, Amazon app store is an essential format to support
