OpenSearchPageRequest Category parameter..

Hi Members, I have been struggling for hours now, but could not find, a way to resolve issues with category parameter of OpenSearchPageRequest method. Here is the call I am using in my Android code: OpenSearchPageRequest request = new OpenSearchPageRequest(category, searchTerm); 1. If category is "Books", it works fine and the search page is loaded with Books as the category/filter. 2. If category is set to "Kindle Store" or "Movies & TV", it doesn't load the search page with these categories.. I guess, it is an issue with the space in category values.. Could anyone please help me resolve this issue? Thanks Android Developer

Hi Androiddev1234, There should not be any space between the words in category search term. You should try with "KindleStore" or "Movies&TV". https://developer.amazon.com/sdk/mobile-associates/search-categories.html
