Working with offers

You can use the AWS Marketplace Catalog API to automate tasks for working with offers.

While the product describes what is being sold in AWS Marketplace, the offer describes the terms and rules around how this product can be purchased and consumed. AWS Marketplace products can have multiple offers sold by different sellers. However, each AWS Marketplace offer can only be created for one product.

An offer has a collection of terms to be accepted for an agreement between two parties. The accepted terms from the offer are translated into an agreement as a proof of transaction.

There are two types of offers:

  • Private offers are a purchasing program allowing sellers and buyers to negotiate custom prices. An end-user licensing agreement (EULA) is signed for software purchases in AWS Marketplace. This offer is only visible to the specified buyer.

    For more information, see Private offers in the AWS Marketplace Seller Guide.

  • Public offers are a globally discoverable purchasing program. Sellers can specify targeting based on programs and geographical location, which makes the offer accessible to a specific set of customers based on the given criteria.

See the following resources:

The following topics describe how to use the Catalog API to create and update offers:

Create a new offer

You can use the Catalog API to create a new offer in AWS Marketplace.

If your request has been processed successfully, AWS Marketplace Catalog API creates an offer in Draft state. While in Draft, it’s an incomplete offer and not visible to buyers in AWS Marketplace. You can use the Update change types to complete the offer.

After the offer is completed, use the ReleaseOffer change type to complete the offer creation process and release the offer. Releasing the offer validates the entire offer and makes it visible to buyers in AWS Marketplace.

To create a new offer, call the StartChangeSet API operation with the CreateOffer change type, as shown in the following example.

Request Syntax

POST /StartChangeSet HTTP/1.1
Content-type: application/json

{
  "Catalog": "AWSMarketplace",
  "ChangeSet": [
    {
      "ChangeType": "CreateOffer",
      "Entity": {
        "Type": "Offer@1.0"
      },
      "DetailsDocument": {
        "ProductId": "prod-ad8EXAMPLE51",
        "Name": "Test Offer"
      }
    }
  ]
}

Provide information for the fields to add the CreateOffer change type:

  • Entity (object) (required) – Your offer.

    • Type (string) (required) – The Type is always Offer@1.0.

  • DetailsDocument (object) (required) – The JSON value of specifics of the request.

    • ProductId (string) (required) – The unique identifier of the product being offered.

    • Name (string) (optional) – The name associated with the offer for better readability to you and your customers. It is displayed as a part of the Agreement information as well.

Response Syntax

A change set is created for your request. The response to this request gives you the ChangeSetId and ChangeSetArn for the change set and looks like the following.

{
  "ChangeSetId": "example123456789012abcdef",
  "ChangeSetArn": "arn:aws:aws-marketplace:us-east-1:123456789012:AWSMarketplace/ChangeSet/example123456789012abcdef"
}

The change request is added to a queue and processed.

You can check the status of the request through the AWS Marketplace Management Portal, or directly through Catalog API using the DescribeChangeSet API operation.

If the Status is SUCCEEDED, then a new OfferId is generated.

The response looks like the following.

{
  "ChangeSetId": "example123456789012abcdef",
  "ChangeSetArn": "arn:aws:aws-marketplace:us-east-1:123456789012:AWSMarketplace/ChangeSet/example123456789012abcdef",
  "ChangeSetName": "Submitted by 123456789012",
  "StartTime": "2021-05-27T22:21:26Z",
  "EndTime": "2021-05-27T22:32:19Z",

Create a replacement offer

You can use the Catalog API to create a replacement offer (also known as an agreement-based offer) in AWS Marketplace.

If your request has been processed successfully, AWS Marketplace Catalog API will have an offer in Draft state generated for you, which is an incomplete offer and not visible to buyers on AWS Marketplace. You will use Update change types to complete the offer. After the offer is completed, you will use ReleaseOffer change type to complete offer creation process and release the offer, which will validate the entire offer and make your offer visible to buyers on AWS Marketplace. From there, the buyer has the option to accept the replacement offer or to continue to operate under the original agreement.

To create a replacement offer, call the StartChangeSet API operation with the CreateReplacementOffer change type and provide a pre-existing agreement id, as shown in the following example.

Request Syntax

POST /StartChangeSet HTTP/1.1
Content-type: application/json

{

Update the discoverability of the offer

You can use the Catalog API to control the discoverability of your offer in AWS Marketplace.

You can either choose to set a specific date in the future to restrict the discoverability of your offer or in the past to expire your offer. The UpdateAvailability change type doesn’t affect existing agreements.

Note

  • You can use the UpdateAvailability change type on a private offer that has already been published (also known as released). If buyers have already accepted the private offer, those existing agreements aren't affected.

  • When modifying the AvailabilityEndDate of an existing private offer, the constraints of the agreement duration must be adhered to. If it's not, include an additional UpdateValidityTerms change type in this change set to modify the agreement duration to adhere to the new expiration. The UpdateValidityTerms change type can be used on a private offer that is either released or not yet released.

  • When modifying the AvailabilityEndDate of an existing private offer, the constraints of the payment schedule must be adhered to. If it's not and the private offer is not yet released, include an additional UpdatePaymentScheduleTerms change type in this change set to modify the payment schedule to adhere to the new expiration. If the private offer is already released, you can only make changes to the AvailabilityEndDate as long as the new date adheres to the constraints of the payment schedule.

To control the discoverability of your offer, call the StartChangeSet API operation with the UpdateAvailability change type, as shown in the following example.

The following errors are specific to UpdateAvailability actions in the AWS Marketplace Catalog API. These errors are returned when you call DescribeChangeSet after a change set is processing. For more details about using DescribeChangeSet to get the status of a change request, see Working with change sets.

Error code Error message
INVALID_AVAILABILITY_END_DATE AvailabilityEndDate isn't supported for public offers.
INVALID_AVAILABILITY_END_DATE Provide a future AvailabilityEndDate.
INVALID_AVAILABILITY_END_DATE Provide an AvailabilityEndDate that is before AgreementEndDate.
MISSING_AVAILABILITY_END_DATE Provide an AvailabilityEndDate that is before the agreement's end date.

Define the expiration date of agreements created using the offer

You can use the Catalog API to define the expiration date details of agreements created using the offer in AWS Marketplace.

This change type doesn’t affect existing agreements.

Note

You can use the UpdateValidityTerms change type on a private offer that has already been published (also known as released). If buyers have already accepted the private offer, those existing agreements aren't affected.

For AMI-based and container-based products, if your private offer pricing terms include a term type that has a Duration (for example, the term types FixedUpfrontPricingTerm or ConfigurableUpfrontPricingTerm), your AgreementDuration set in this change type must be greater than the following: the number of days from today to the expiration of the private offer plus the number of days set in the Duration of those term types. This is because after a buyer accepts the private offer and the agreement is created, they can optionally purchase additional entitlements specified in those term types until the private offer expires. Furthermore, all additional entitlements must end before the agreement does. For example, if the buyer accepts the private offer on the first available day and then purchases entitlements on the last available day, those entitlements must not end after the agreement end date.

To define the expiration date details of agreements created using the offer, call the StartChangeSet API operation with the UpdateValidityTerms change type, as shown in the following example.

Update payment schedule details

You can use the Catalog API to update payment schedule details for your offer, such as flexible payment schedule, in AWS Marketplace.

Note

You cannot use the UpdatePaymentScheduleTerms change type on an offer that has already been published (also known as released).

The private offer can be accepted any day between the creation of the private offer and its expiration (set in the AvailabilityEndDate). Only one ChargeDate value of the payment schedule can be a date on or before the last day the buyer can accept the private offer (the private offer expiration date). The remaining values of ChargeDate must be after the private offer expiration, but no later than the end of the agreement if the private offer was accepted immediately. The end of the agreement is based on when the private offer is accepted (creating the agreement) plus the duration of the agreement.

To update payment schedule details for your offer, call the StartChangeSet API operation with the UpdatePaymentScheduleTerms change type, as shown in the following example.
