Interact with Shippo API

Actions68

Overview

This node allows you to retrieve details of a specific webhook from the Shippo API by providing its unique identifier. It is useful when you want to inspect or manage existing webhooks configured in your Shippo account, such as verifying their status, URL, or events they listen to.

Practical examples include:

  • Fetching webhook details before updating or deleting them.
  • Auditing webhook configurations for troubleshooting or documentation.
  • Integrating webhook information into automated workflows for monitoring purposes.

Properties

Name Meaning
Webhook Id The unique object ID of the webhook to retrieve. This identifies which webhook's details will be fetched from Shippo.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the webhook object retrieved from the Shippo API. This typically includes fields such as the webhook's ID, URL, event types it listens to, creation date, and status. The exact structure depends on Shippo's API response schema for a webhook resource.

No binary data output is expected from this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active API key credential for authenticating with the Shippo API.
  • The node communicates with the Shippo REST API endpoint at https://api.goshippo.com.
  • Proper network access to Shippo's API is necessary.

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid Webhook Id: If the provided webhook ID does not exist or is malformed, the API will return an error. Verify the ID is correct.
  • Authentication Errors: Missing or invalid API credentials will cause authentication failures. Ensure the API key is correctly configured.
  • Network Issues: Connectivity problems can prevent reaching the Shippo API. Check your network and proxy settings.
  • API Rate Limits: Excessive requests may lead to rate limiting. Implement retry logic or reduce request frequency if needed.
