Known Errors

InvalidParameterValue

A message like

“InvalidParameterValue: The ItemId B01ALKM6A0 provided in the request is invalid.”

can have several reasons.

Reason 1

This product is in the Repo and ASA2 tries to update it regularly.

Solution: Search for this ASIN in your Products section and delete or replace the product.

Reason 2

This product is not in the Repo, but is instead embedded on a page. In this case ASA2 tries to load this product via API, cannot find it in the store and the error occurs.

Solution: Delete this product from the page that is mentioned in the statistics entry in the details column (“permalink”).

NoResults

This error is known with GetVariations requests (e.g. to calculate the price range) if there are no variations for the product.
