How to get account deatil by API?

Hello, Is there any API I can use to get account detail such as email or first name/last name for a given access token? That would be useful so that an app can show these information as an identification of account to users. Thanks

I didn't find this too. And most clout APIs have way to retrieve user's details such as name and email. Amazon cloud API doesn't seem to have this possible. Maybe in Version 2.

Hello, I just figured it out myself. There is a get profile API in Login with Amazon API. You have to add "profile" in the scope when you obtain access token. And then GET https://api.amazon.com/user/profile with the access token. The response will be a json contains name, email, and user_id. Cheers Harry Chen
