API Docs
Customers need to quickly change and add carriers without incurring costly and
restrictive technical debt. Every carrier has different integration methods, requiring
a new development project for every new or updated carrier. This workload compounds as
you expand globally and work with a larger number of carriers.
The Zenkraft API integrates directly with shipping carriers such as
FedEx, UPS, and
DHL through a single platform. Integrate with Zenkraft’s
developer-friendly API and let Zenkraft handle the complexities of global carrier
integration.
This page includes examples of the Zenkraft API’s structure and parameters. Select a
carrier from the dropdown list in the navigation menu to access API reference
documentation listing their required and accepted parameters.

/webhook POST
Webhooks provide you with a real-time view of your shipments.
1. Create a webhook configuration
In order to start using webhooks, you need to create a webhook configuration. You can find an example payload on the right side.
2. Receive a webhook
Now we will start sending tracking event updates as POST requests to your chosen address. The request will be formatted the same way as our track response
3. Verify a webhook
Webhooks can be verified by calculating a digital signature.
Each webhook request includes a base64-encoded X-Zenkraft-Hmac-SHA256 header, which is generated using your API key along with the data sent in the request.
Once you verify this signature, you can be sure the request came from us and you can continue your processing.
4. Response to a webhook
Your endpoint acknowledges that it received data by sending a 200 response. Any response outside of 200-range is considered an error. On our side, we have set a 5 second timeout. Any errors will be retried in a staggered manner over the course of the day.
Testing a Webhook
To test a webhook, run a local server or use a publicly available service such as Beeceptor. If you decide to run a server locally, then you need to make it publicly available using a service such as Pagekite or ngrok. The following URLs can't be endpoints for a webhook:
- Localhost
- Any URL ending in the word "internal"
- Domains like www.example.com
- Zenkraft domains such as api.zenkraft.com
