I am a developer and new to MWS. Can anyone explain me how can I make sure the SellerID, MarketplaceID and MWS Auth Token which provided by a seller are valid? Is there any API methods to validate or should I do it by sending a request to an API method such as GetMatchingProduct using those IDs?

Let me explain what I am doing.

My application is web based service that allows the Amazon sellers to sign up and use my app to reduce their work load.

I am making API requests on behalf of other sellers. So, I am the developer for their seller account.

I have developed an UI that allows the sellers to enter their SellerID, MarketplaceId and MWS Auth Token after authorizing my Application Name and Developer Account Number on their seller central. So, they have been provided those keys to enter into my system. What I am wondering is, I want to dynamically validate the IDs and Auth Token entered by a seller is actually correct or not before storing into my database. So I can make sure my system has a valid IDs and Auth Token before making any API requests such as GetMatchingProductByID and etc...

Using Scratchpad is not ideal in this case, as it is not allowing to make API requests without entering the AWSAccessKeyId.

Hope this explains my scenario well.
