Overview
The node integrates with the Shipentegra API to manage shipping and logistics operations. Specifically, the "Find Order" operation allows users to retrieve detailed information about a specific order by its unique identifier. This is useful in scenarios where you need to track the status, details, or history of an order within your shipping workflow.
Practical examples include:
- Fetching order details to display shipment status in a customer service dashboard.
- Automating follow-up actions based on order status (e.g., triggering notifications when an order is found).
- Integrating order data into other systems for reporting or analytics.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Request Details | A notice field providing contextual information or instructions related to the request. |
| Order ID | The unique numeric identifier of the order to find. Must be between 1 and 9007199254740991. |
| Filter | Optional filter to specify which subset of order data to retrieve. Options are: None, General, Price, Carrier. |
Output
The output JSON contains the detailed information of the requested order as returned by the Shipentegra API. Depending on the selected filter, this may include general order details, pricing information, carrier details, or the full order data.
If the node supports binary data output (not explicitly shown here), it would typically represent documents such as shipping labels or invoices related to the order.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Shipentegra API.
- The base URL for API requests is
https://publicapi.shipentegra.com/v1. - The node expects JSON responses and sends requests with appropriate headers including content type and language preferences.
Troubleshooting
- Order Not Found: If the specified Order ID does not exist, the API will likely return an error or empty response. Verify the Order ID is correct.
- Authentication Errors: Ensure that the API key credential is correctly configured and has necessary permissions.
- Invalid Input: The Order ID must be a number within the allowed range; invalid values will cause errors.
- Filter Misuse: Using an unsupported filter value may result in incomplete or no data being returned.
