# Look Up Amazon Products by ASIN

Product teams often need current Amazon data, but manual lookup is slow. This skill uses BrowserAct to retrieve structured title, price, rating, availability, and catalog details from an ASIN.

## Install

## Capabilities

- Runs a Python helper script with a user-supplied ASIN.
- Starts a BrowserAct Amazon ASIN Lookup workflow template.
- Polls BrowserAct task status until completion or timeout.
- Returns product title, URL, brand, pricing, ratings, and selected attributes.
- Reports missing or invalid BrowserAct API key errors.

## Use Cases

- Enrich Product Catalogs: Retrieve Amazon titles, brands, prices, ratings, and product attributes for known ASINs.
- Check Competitive Pricing: Look up current Amazon prices for selected products before updating internal pricing records.
- Validate Product References: Confirm that an ASIN resolves to the expected product details before publishing marketplace content.

## Prompt Templates

### Look Up One ASIN

```
Look up Amazon product details for ASIN B07TS6R1SF and summarize the title, price, rating, and availability.
```

### Extract Catalog Fields

```
Use the ASIN lookup skill for this ASIN and return the product title, brand, current price, rating count, description, and special features.
```

### Review Price And Rating

```
Check this ASIN with BrowserAct and compare the current price, original price, discount, average rating, and rating count.
```

### Prepare Catalog Update Notes

```
Run the ASIN lookup, identify fields useful for a catalog update, flag missing values, and provide concise update notes for the product team.
```

## Limitations

- Requires a valid BROWSERACT\_API\_KEY environment variable.
- Sends lookup requests and task metadata to BrowserAct.
- Depends on BrowserAct and Amazon page availability.
- Processes one ASIN per script execution.

## Best Practices

- Store BROWSERACT\_API\_KEY as an environment variable, not in chat.
- Validate the ASIN before running the lookup script.
- Review returned product data before updating customer-facing systems.

## Anti Patterns

- Do not paste BrowserAct API keys into prompts or shared logs.
- Do not use the skill for sensitive or private product research without reviewing BrowserAct data handling.
- Do not assume every Amazon page exposes all pricing, rating, or attribute fields.

## Security Audit

- - Safe to publish: true
- - Audited at: 2026-06-28T17:20:17.132\+00:00
- - Summary: The critical static heuristic is not confirmed as malicious: the network calls, local script execution, and environment variable access match the declared BrowserAct ASIN lookup workflow. The skill still presents medium risk because it sends ASIN workflow data to a third-party API and includes guidance that may lead users to share an API key in chat.
