Adding an integration with a shipping platform

Table of contents

Introduction

If you have decided to integrate your Ongoing WMS with a shipping platform, the next step is to add the integration in your Ongoing WMS. We show you how to do this in this guide.

Preparations

To set up an integration you will first have to gather some pieces of information, such as passwords or API keys. Exactly which data is required depends on the integration. To find out which data is required for your integration, check the integration's own page.

Adding an integration

After you have gathered all information which is required for your shipping platform, go to Administration ⇒ Integration ⇒ Integrations and emails in Ongoing WMS and click the button New integration.

Select the type of system you want to integrate with, and fill in the necessary information. For instance, when integrating with nShift Delivery, the only required fields are the API ID and API secret ID:
