At Cargosnap, we’re really excited to offer REST API’s. This powerful feature allows our users to integrate Cargosnap into their TMS, WMS or ERP systems. We even support connecting to Excel, to create your own advanced dashboards!!!
TIP! Keep the Cargosnap API documentation handy.
let’s integrate!
How to get there
In the top right corner, click on your company, then navigate to 'Company Settings' and select 'API Tokens':
Create your API token
1. Name your API to something easy to remember or refer to (e.g. the name of the system you will connect Cargosnap with).
2. Optional: There also is an option to add a Expiry date. This field may be used in situations where your company policy requires expiring tokens. Be sure to remember to re-create a new token before expiry!
3. Then click ‘Create’ - Done!
Collect the API token
You can collect the generated token by going back to the API token tab and clicking the “Copy to clipboard” button right next to the newly generated token. This will place it in your clipboard, so you can paste it into your configuration files.
IMPORTANT: do keep this token safe! This is a powerful thing as it can do anything your administrators do in the platform. Make sure it does not get compromised, so don’t share it with wide audiences nor use email to share the token.
Now it's time to start coding and build something cool!
