HTTP Error 410: Gone. Using outdated API?

[floriandotpy]

Thanks for this module! I have been trying my first steps today, by my requests produce an error:

HTTPError: HTTP Error 410: Gone

When I login to PartnerNet, I currently see a huge red notification telling everyone that the API v4 has been discontinued since 31 March, 2020 (which was 5 weeks ago as I am typing this).

Is it possible the module still uses API v5, which would explain the error?

I'll try using the new API without the wrapper for now. But would be happy about any response, if this is indeed the issue.

Detailed example below.

---

from amazon.api import AmazonAPI

# fill these in if you want to try the example
secrets = {
  "access_key": "",
  "secret_key": "",
  "assoc_id": ""
}

amazon = AmazonAPI(secrets['access_key'], secrets['secret_key'], secrets['assoc_id'], region='US')

products = amazon.search(Keywords='Tolkien', SearchIndex='All')

for i, product in enumerate(products):
    print(f"{i}: f{product.title}")

Output:

i am also having the same error

See #162 - this library doesn't support the new v5 API. I've been using https://github.com/sergioteula/python-amazon-paapi which has worked well.

[SoothingMist]

Using the suggested alternative, "from amazon_paapi import AmazonAPI" yields "amazon_paapi" is unresolved. had done all appropriate pip installs.
