<h2>About this Sample</h2>
<ul>
	<li>Based on the 2009-03-31 API version.</li>
	<li>This sample shows how to send an authenticated REST request to the Amazon Product Advertising API using C#</li>
</ul>

<h2>Prerequisites</h2>
<ul>
	<li>
	    <b>Amazon Product Advertising API Account</b> (<a href="http://associates.amazon.com/gp/advertising/api/detail/main.html">http://associates.amazon.com/gp/advertising/api/detail/main.html/</a>).
	</li>
	<li>Visual Studio Express 2008 or better</li>

	Documentation</a></li>
</ul>

<h2>Quick Start</h2>
Sample comes with SignedRequestHelper with the signature logic and an ItemLookupSample C# class that uses the SignedRequestHelper to perform a simple ItemLookup operation.
To get started with the sample, follow these steps:
<ol>
	<li>Log in to the AWS portal at <a href="http://aws.amazon.com/">http://aws.amazon.com/</a> and copy your AWS Access Key ID and your AWS Secret Key.
	    You can find them under the Your Account -&gt; Access Identifiers menu after you log in.</li>
	<li>Extract the zip file into a working directory.</li>
    <li>Open the solution in Visual Studio</li>
	<li>Open the <strong>ItemLookupSample.cs</strong> file in Visual Studio editor and change the <tt>MY_AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID</tt> and <tt>MY_AWS_SECRET_KEY</tt> values
	    to match the ones you obtained from AWS.</li>
    <li>The <tt>DESTINATION</tt> in the sample refers to the US endpoint for the service. Change it if needed to the endpoint if your choice. 
    If you do, you may also want to change the <tt>ITEM_ID</tt> value since the value was selected for the US locale.</li>
	<li>
	    Run the sample in Visual Studio.
	</li>
</ol>
