Version Questions

[Scott Sikora]

Hello,

It seems that there are two version of the Amazon FPS API (http://
developer.amazonwebservices.com/connect/kbcategory.jspa?
categoryID=277)
-- API Version 2007-01-08
-- API Version 2008-09-17

Two questions:

1) Does Remit support the newer API? The primary difference, it
seems, is the the simplification of some calls, including the
avoidance of having to call InstallPaymentInstruction

2) Does Remit support V2 signatures? (http://
developer.amazonwebservices.com/connect/kbcategory.jspa?
categoryID=302)

Thanks,
Scott

Looking in the remit source (http://github.com/tylerhunt/remit/blob/
master/lib/remit.rb), it appears to use the older 2007-01-08 version
of the API:

87: API_VERSION = Date.new(2007, 1, 8).to_s.freeze

It also appears that it is using signature version 1:

88: SIGNATURE_VERSION = 1.freeze

There have been some patches to update Remit to use the newer API version that I'm going to try to get merged in this week. I don't think I've seen any for a newer signature version, however.

I believe the SIGNATURE_VERSION is now 2, according to the following
doc:
