Service

The Service segment of the WSDL specifies the web service used, which, in this case, is Product Advertising API, as shown in the following WSDL snippet:

<service name="AWSECommerceService">
  <port name="AWSECommerceServicePort"
    binding="tns:AWSECommerceServiceBinding">
    <soap:address location= "http://soap.amazon.com/onca/soap?Service= AWSECommerceService" />
  </port>
</service>

This information changes very rarely and so you need not pay much attention to it.

Every Product Advertising API request includes this service declaration, as shown in the following example.
