Authentication

This endpoint requires the user to be authenticated. Refer to the documentation here for more information on how to obtain a valid token to use in your request.

Making a request

Clients using this API should not fail if new fields are added to the response. If a new field is added to the response on a later stage, existing clients should handle this in a way such as they just ignore the field.
Fields not set in the response are not left out, that is fields in the response may have null values. E.g. "shipmentNumber": null. The client using the endpoint should handle this.
For shipments older than 6 months no events will be available

Error handling

API requests that result in errors will return an appropriate HTTP status code to help you identify the type of error. You can use the table below to understand what each code means.

HTTP Status code	Text	Description
400	Client or Validation Error	The request body/query string is not in the correct format.
401	Authentication Failure	Indicates that the Authorization header is either missing or incorrect. You can learn more about the Authorization header here.
403	Access denied	This indicates that the agent whose credentials were used in making this request was not authorized to perform this API call. It could be that you do not have access to the shop or transportsolution you provided in your request. If you believe this is a mistake, please reach out to your contact so it can be rectified.
405	Method not allowed	This API request used the wrong HTTP verb/method. For example a PUT request will result in this error.
