Learn how to add products to your Amazon store
When you finish the registration process and add your first store, the system will prompt you to upload your first product.
Important to know 📚
The process of listing a selling product on Amazon is different.
The majority of Amazon sellers do not create their own listings. Instead, they join existing Asins as sellers under the other sellers list on the same product.
Therefore, in addition to filling out the source product ID (aka the supplier) in AutoDS, you must also add the ASIN to which you want to be added.
