Shippo is a shipment management platform to create, track, and bill shipping on various carriers. The Shippo API allows e-commerce merchants to integrate these shipping functions directly into digital storefronts and create a seamless customer experience.

This course is an introduction to the Shippo API and its endpoints. You’ll start with the authentication for your application using Shippo’s developer environment before moving on to requesting and generating shipping data. You’ll create your shipment details with the address and parcel data. You’ll also learn to integrate Shippo’s many carrier partners (UPS, DHL, FedEx, and more). Then, you’ll generate a rate quote and process the transaction to generate shipping details so a package can be tracked. You’ll wrap up by exploring a completely functional web application in React.

By the end of this course, you’ll be able to use Shippo API effectively with your own projects.
