Parcel Replace Order API
This API enables replacing an order registered in DI
Content
Purpose and use of Service
Replace Order API is used to replace details for an existing order. Replacing will create a new order, cancel an old one and applies to all items in that order.
Setup
Make sure you have the following information at hand before proceeding.
| Example | Description |
---|---|---|
Username (see Authentication section) | wsfoobar | A valid username. |
Password (see Authentication section) | a-very-very-long-password | A password matching given username. |
The user is a web service user
The user has access to the web service for editing orders
The user has access to the shop registered on the order
Environments / Endpoints
Consider using the TEST-endpoint while developing your system. By doing this you ensure that your test-data will not pollute any potential external systems.
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
Notes
Clients using this API should not fail if new optional fields are added to the API. If a new field is added to the request or response on a later stage, existing clients should handle this in a way such as they just ignore the field.
Changes will be updated for all parcels/kolli for the shipment/order specified
You may have several patch operations in one request
If request contains
remove
operation it should be the last operation in the requestIf one of the operations in a request is invalid the whole request will be interrupted
It is not possible to undo a replace request, but you can do several replace requests on the same shipment which will cause creating new order every time
Notes
It is neccessary to remove the servicePoint party to if it should be automatically re-assigned. This could be relevant if consignee address has been changed, and servicePoint should be re-evaluated and re-assigned.

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. og search online with the HTTP status code. The HTTP error keys used are based on the standard, and therefore available online (Tips to search “HTTP code XXX”)
In addition to HTTP status there may be more details in the errorKey field. Error Keys can be added at a later stage, clients should handle this as well as an empty value for errorKey
.
