Create a parcel or parcels
Create one or multiple parcels, either to be immediately announced to the carrier, or to be created for later announcement.
Authorizations
Basic Authentication using API key and secrets is currently the main authentication mechanism.
Headers
If you are an official Sendcloud Tech Partner, send your unique Sendcloud Partner UUID as a request header for the system to recognize you.
The header is not required but if it is set, the system will check it. An unknown or invalid UUID will cause a 400 error.
Query Parameters
When making an API request, the errors query parameter can be used to determine the type of errors that should be included in the response. If verbose is specified, the response will only contain errors that Sendcloud has validated. These errors may include shipment details such as invalid addresses or missing postal codes. On the other hand, if verbose-carrier is specified, the response will include errors originating from the carriers side of the shipping process. These errors may result from technical or validation problems, such as connection failures or issues with the carrier`s systems, that prevent the shipment from being processed. More details are described on the page Handling parcel errors.
