Understanding how to use Notifications

[MyGuyCai]

I'm trying to wrap my head around notifications.
What I want to do is let amazon tell me when there is a price change for any product that I currently have listed.

I followed the docs and have done these steps:

1. Created a destination

note = Notifications(credentials=credentials, marketplace=Marketplaces.UK)
note.create_destination(name='test2', arn=credentials['role_arn'])

2. Created the subscription

id = None
ds = note.get_destinations()
for destination in ds.payload:
    if destination['name'] == "test":
        id = destination['destinationId']
if id:
    note.create_subscription(NotificationType.ANY_OFFER_CHANGED, destination_id=id)

3. Tried to get the notification

res = note.get_subscription(NotificationType.ANY_OFFER_CHANGED)
print(res)

The payload I'm returned is:

{'destinationId': 'XX-XX-XX-XX-XX',
 'payloadVersion': '1.0',
 'processingDirective': None,
 'subscriptionId': 'XX-XX-XX-XX-XX'}

Is there something I'm missing about getting the actual price changes?

The destination has to be a SQS Queue, not a role.

The notifications are explained here:

https://docs.developer.amazonservices.com/en_UK/subscriptions/Subscriptions_ReceivingNotifications.html

Once you've set this up you can listen to the queue and process messages that Amazon pushed to it.

You have to adapt the string in the sender code. (Arn)
Have a look at the example, it's all in there.

Region, accountid, and so on

This seems to have fixed it, it's now displaying as 223 messages available.
Thanks for the help, great work you're doing here.

Yeah just formatted it like that to hide my details, thanks.
Do you have a 'buy me a coffee' link?

I don't. Always happy for a GitHub one time sponsoring though.
Even if you don't, happy to have helped.
