If you are an existing Product Advertising API customer and your security credentials are linked to an AWS account, you can migrate your Product Advertising API account from AWS. If you choose this option, you will decouple your AWS account from your Product Advertising API account. You will get a new pair of credentials directly in your Product Advertising API account.
When you migrate your Product Advertising API account from AWS, you can use your new credentials only for the Product Advertising API. These credentials will not work with any AWS services.
