Environments / endpoints

TEST GET	https://staging-ws.di.no/ws/json/parcel/tracking/v-2/fetch/{identifier}/{locale}/{onlyLastEvent}
PRODUCTION GET	https://ws.di.no/ws/json/parcel/tracking/v-2/fetch/{identifier}/{locale}/{onlyLastEvent}

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, only latest status
