The AliExpress open platform SDK provides request encapsulation, digest signature, response interpretation, message monitoring, and other features for APIs. The SDK also helps the developer invoke APIs, obtain API results, and monitor messages in real time.
SDKs are associated to a specific application. Therefore, its contents might differ depending on the application used to download it.
Log in to the AliExpress open platform, you will see your application(s).
Click the “Application Management” button of your application.
On the console, click “SDK Download” menu in the left side, you will see the SDK page. Choose the SDK type you want to download. Let’s take Java SDK as example.
If you have generated the SDK, the page will show both links: download and generate. Otherwise only generate link will appear.
You can click on the generate link to generate SDK. After about 3 minutes, the SDK will be generated. Afterwards, refresh the page, click on the SDK type again and after checking the last generated time (its format is year-month-date hour:minute:second) you may download the new version of the SDK.
