New Shipment Model​

Our new Shipment Model provides comprehensive functionality for managing your shipping operations directly through the API. You can now:

• Create Shipments: Define detailed shipment information, including sender/recipient contacts, origin/destination addresses, and parcel specifics.
• Manage Shipments: Retrieve, update (limited fields), and delete shipments.
• Generate Labels: Programmatically generate shipping labels for your created shipments.
