Once you\u2019ve gained access, you\u2019ll navigate to the Sandbox tab on the left hand side, to find the API key you can use to perform test calls to our API while in development.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your default production key can be found in the API Management tab.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additional API keys can also be made for different environments, geographical regions, or even separate keys for each server.

Here, you\u2019ll be able to designate whether you\u2019d like to purchase additional funds to add to your existing account balance, or turn on auto-funding to cover any label calls made to the API from your production key.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have connected to one of our \u201cOther Shipping Providers,\u201d you will need to update your billing information directly with your preferred carrier.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2020\/07\/EngineSupportVideoGraphics-02-1024x576.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Q: How can I make test calls to the ShipEngine API?\" class=\"wp-image-2893\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2020\/07\/EngineSupportVideoGraphics-02-1024x576.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2020\/07\/EngineSupportVideoGraphics-02-768x432.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2020\/07\/EngineSupportVideoGraphics-02-1536x864.jpg.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2020\/07\/EngineSupportVideoGraphics-02-scaled.jpg.webp 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-q-how-can-i-make-test-calls-to-the-shipengine-api-to-make-sure-it-s-the-right-solution-for-my-business\">Q: How can I make test calls to the ShipEngine API to make sure it&#8217;s the right solution for my business? <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We want you to feel confident in the shipping solutions our API provides. We have integrated with the free, cross-platform application, Postman, to provide a way for you to make test calls using your Sandbox API key. This allows you to take ShipEngine out for a test drive, if you will.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This will also serve as a great reference to use to explore the various endpoints available through our API.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, navigate to our <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.shipengine.com\/docs\/postman\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Postman Collections<\/strong><\/a>. Here you\u2019ll find information on how to download the Postman application, as well as a tutorial on how to get started with our Walkthrough and Reference collections.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-q-can-i-schedule-carrier-pickups-through-shipengine\">Q: Can I schedule carrier pickups through ShipEngine? <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The short answer is: Yes! The <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.shipengine.com\/docs\/shipping\/pickups\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>list of carriers<\/strong><\/a> who currently support pickup through ShipEngine can be found in our documentation, as well as code samples to help you build out this portion of your integration.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll see that the code sample lists the requested label ID, your contact information (in case the carrier needs to contact you), any necessary pickup notes, and the requested delivery window.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s important to also note that the pickup window must be specified as a valid 8601 ISO string, in order for the API call to be successful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2020\/07\/EngineSupportVideoGraphics-03-1024x576.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Q3: How do I set up carrier and marketplace integrations? \" class=\"wp-image-2887\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2020\/07\/EngineSupportVideoGraphics-03-1024x576.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2020\/07\/EngineSupportVideoGraphics-03-768x432.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2020\/07\/EngineSupportVideoGraphics-03-1536x864.jpg.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2020\/07\/EngineSupportVideoGraphics-03-scaled.jpg.webp 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-q-how-do-i-set-up-carrier-and-marketplace-integrations\">Q: How do I set up carrier and marketplace integrations? <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s first start by understanding your options when it comes to carrier integrations. By default, ShipEngine users have access to <a href=\"\/blog\/announcing-discounted-ups-rates-for-shipengine-users\/\"><strong>reduced rates<\/strong><\/a> that we have pre-negotiated with popular carriers to help you save on shipping!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to take advantage of these, simply navigate to the connections tab within your dashboard. Under &#8220;ShipEngine Carriers&#8221; click the greyed logos to sign in or sign up for your free Stamps.com account. Once you have followed the prompts and uploaded payment information, you will be able to see the carrier ids underneath the corresponding logos. After a 24-hour waiting period, you\u2019ll have access to these discounted rates and labels.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have already negotiated your own rates with a preferred carrier and would like to take advantage of those while using ShipEngine, simply click on the &#8220;Add a carrier&#8221; button underneath the &#8220;Other Shipping Providers&#8221; section.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly, to sync your marketplace accounts, you will click the &#8220;Add a Marketplace&#8221; button to connect with one or multiple popular ecommerce platforms. Once you click on the logo, follow the prompts to authorize the integration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-q-how-do-i-create-branded-labels-tracking-pages\">Q: How do I create branded labels &amp; tracking pages? <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Branding is an important element in the customer experience, and we want to help you provide the <a href=\"\/blog\/print-custom-shipping-labels-with-brand-logo-through-shipengine\/\"><strong>best fulfillment experience<\/strong><\/a> for your customers. As a ShipEngine user, you have the ability to create carrier-approved custom labels, and build your own branded tracking site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, open your browser to the ShipEngine dashboard and navigate to \u201cbranded settings\u201d on the left side of your screen. This will automatically bring you to where you can adjust the theme settings for a custom branded tracking page. Click \u201cAdd a theme\u201d and follow the prompts to add in your business information, custom branded colors, social links, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Click on &#8220;Create Theme&#8221; when you\u2019re done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By clicking on the \u201cLabels\u201d tab at the top, you also have the option to upload an optimized logo that can appear at the top right of your printed shipping labels.<br \/><br \/>For information on how to add custom messages to the reference fields of your printed labels, we\u2019ve provided multi-language code request examples in our documentation that reference <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shipengine.com\/docs\/labels\/messages\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">how to add a special thank you message<\/a><\/strong> or call-out to your customer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2020\/07\/EngineSupportVideoGraphics-07-1024x576.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Q7: How do I ship internationally in ShipEngine, including to U.S. territories? \" class=\"wp-image-2889\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2020\/07\/EngineSupportVideoGraphics-07-1024x576.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2020\/07\/EngineSupportVideoGraphics-07-768x432.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2020\/07\/EngineSupportVideoGraphics-07-1536x864.jpg.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2020\/07\/EngineSupportVideoGraphics-07-scaled.jpg.webp 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-q-how-do-i-ship-internationally-with-shipengine-including-to-u-s-territories\">Q: How do I ship internationally with ShipEngine, including to U.S. territories? <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Being able to ship outside of the contiguous United States is <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.shipengine.com\/the-international-shipping-playbook\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>increasingly expected<\/strong><\/a> by many consumers, and it&#8217;s a great way to continue growing your business.
