ModeMany of Amazon.com's web services functions require a mode parameter in the URL used to invoke the service.
The mode parameter identifies the type of data being requested. If an incorrect mode is selected, often no results are returned by the web service. Therefore, it's important to use the proper mode when making an AWS query.
Unfortunately, it's often difficult to determine the correct mode to use in a call. BrowseNodes.com can help since a mode is associated with each browse node in the database. The mode in the database, however, is selected using an automated process and may not always be the correct mode to use. Therefore, you may need to experiment to discover the correct mode to use in your AWS queries. Links:
