## Arguments

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `store` | string | yes | the store ref `<store>-<CC>` (name-country, e.g. 'myStore-US') — one of get_user_context's store_refs, verbatim. |
| `countryCode` | string | yes | the Ads profile's 2-letter country code (e.g. 'US'). |
| `body` | object | yes | {campaignId, adFormat: 'productCollection'\|'video', keywords: [{keywordText, matchType}] (max 100), targets: [[{type, value}]] (max 100 — each target is a LIST of expressions), themeTypes: [...] (max 100)}; sum of (targets + keywords + themeTypes) ≤ 100. costType (CPC \| VCPM) needs a matching goal — costType without goal is refused; omit both for CPC bids at the default page-visit goal. |

## Result

- Amazon's payload in data.result.
- `data.result.keywordsBidsRecommendationSuccessResults` — [{keywordIndex, keyword, recommendedBid {rangeStart, recommended, rangeEnd}}]; product targets and themes come back in the matching targets… and themes… lists, failures in the …ErrorResults lists.
