API rates match the client portal

The API is not a separate price book. It uses the same enabled products, channel rules, and client-facing pricing that the customer sees in the BoslogShip portal.

  • Submit shipment data from a connected system.
  • Retrieve eligible client-facing rates for enabled carrier scopes.
  • Buy labels and receive tracking, label, and error status back through API responses.

Designed for operational closure

A shipping API is only useful when the whole lifecycle can be audited. BoslogShip records API-created orders, label purchases, label files, wallet charges, cancellation requests, and retryable errors.

  • Mark API-originated orders clearly in BoslogShip.
  • Return failure reasons to the third-party system.
  • Use existing BoslogShip wallet and cancellation logic for API orders.
