API

Shipink provides a REST API that lets you manage orders, shipments, carriers, and warehouses programmatically — without using the Shipink panel.

Environments

Getting Started with the Test Environment

1. Sign up at app.dev.shipink.io/signup
2. Add a test credit card — the test environment uses Craftgate test cards. You can use any of the successful test card numbers listed there.
3. Get your token — use your test account credentials with POST /token on https://api.dev.shipink.io

Sample successful test cards:

Main Flow

The typical integration follows these three steps:

1. Create an order — register customer info and cart items
2. Create a shipment — generate a shipping label for that order
3. Track the shipment — monitor delivery status

Supporting endpoints:

• Rates — calculate shipping costs before creating a shipment
• Warehouses — manage sender addresses
• Address Book — manage saved recipient addresses
• Carriers — list carriers, services, and linked accounts

Authentication

All endpoints require a Bearer token in the Authorization header. Obtain a token by posting your Shipink credentials to POST /token.

Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN

See the Token page for how to create and refresh tokens.
