Shipment APIs

Get All Shipments

sdk.shipments.get_all()

Returns a list of all shipments tied to the workspace.

Get a Single Shipment

sdk.shipments.get(shipment_id)

Retrieves details for a specific shipment.

Example:

sdk.shipments.get("OD119208447831346000-4380-3659")

Create a Shipment

sdk.shipments.create(payload)

Creates a shipment in EShopBox.

Payload includes:

  • Order details (internal/external IDs)

  • Shipping address

  • Invoice information

  • Dimensions & weight

  • Tracking details

  • Item-level product information

Update Shipment Status

sdk.shipments.update(shipment_id, status)

Updates the status of a shipment.

Example:

sdk.shipments.update("OD119208447831346000-4380-3659", "dispatched")

Notes

  • Shipment creation requires valid customer, item, and address records.

  • Use tracking IDs to sync with courier partners.

  • Status updates should follow valid status transitions (e.g., packed → dispatched → intransit → delivered).

  • Always store your SDK credentials using environment variables.
