1.0   Introduction

This document contains a Reference Guide to the USPS Tracking/Delivery Confirmation Label APIs. See the Developer's Guide to learn the administrative process for gaining access to the Web Tools APIs as well as the basic mechanism for calling the APIs and processing the results. The Developer’s Guide also contains information on testing and troubleshooting.

备注: The Request Parameter sections present the XML input tags for generating live requests along with the restrictions on the values allowed. An error message will be returned if an incorrect value is entered.  Also, be aware of the maximum character amounts allowed for some tags. If the user enters more than those amounts, an error will not be generated. Web Tools will simply pass in the characters up to the maximum amount allowed and disregard the rest. This is important since the resulting value could prevent a correct response.

When building the XML request, pay particular attention to the order and case for tags. An error message will be returned if an incorrect value is entered. Remember that all data and attribute values in this document are for illustration purposes and are to be replaced by your actual values. For instance, a line of sample code may be:

<TrackID> EJ123456780US </TrackID>

In this instance, you will replace “EJ123456780US” with the tracking ID for the package.

1.1     Before you get started:

For information on registering and getting started with Web Tools, please refer to the Step-By-Step guide found on the Web Tools Technical Documentation Page.

1.2     Tracking Service APIs

To obtain Package Tracking API (API=TrackV2) access, users will need to follow the below steps.

 

1.      Register for Web Tools at https://registration.shippingapis.com/.

2.      Obtain a valid registered mailer identification number (MID). This is a 6 or 9-digit number assigned to a customer through the USPS Business Customer Gateway (BCG). Please refer to the following links for help.

o   https://gateway.usps.com/eAdmin/view/knowledge?securityId=MID

o   https://postalpro.usps.com/mailing/mailer-id  

重要提示:Set up of your MID must be completed prior to requesting access or your request will be rejected. Please contact the NCSC-Delivery Confirmation (email: Delivery.confirmation@usps.gov; phone: 1-877-264-9693, Option 1) for assistance.

3.      Once the above steps are completed submit your Package Tracking access request at: https://usps.force.com/emailus/s/web-tools-inquiry and provide your Web Tools user ID, select ‘Tracking APIs’, select ‘Access for Tracking APIs’ and submit the following information below in the “Additional Information” text box:

·        Web Tools User ID:

·        Mailer ID (MID):

·        Company Name:

·        Company Website:

·        Requester First and Last Name:

·        Requester Email:

·        Requester Phone number:

·        Mailing Address:

·        Mailing City:

·        Mailing State:

·        Mailing Zip Code:

·        Web Tools Registration Date:

·        API access requested: Package Tracking (API=TrackV2)

·        Anticipated volume: (daily, weekly, monthly, or annually)

·        Shipping done with USPS: Please describe.

·        Any additional information:

Four service APIs are offered in conjunction with “Revision=1” of the Package Tracking “Fields” API: Track and Confirm by Email (PTSEmail), Proof of Delivery (PTSPod), Track Proof of Delivery (PTSTPod), and Return Receipt Electronic (PTSRre). The response data from Track/Confirm Fields request determines which services are available for a tracking ID. Each request input to the Web Tools server for the tracking service APIs is limited to one tracking ID. These APIs require additional permissions and in order to gain access follow the above steps.

2.0   Package Track API

2.1     Overview

The Track/Confirm Web Tools API provides tracking status and delivery information for USPS packages. The Track/Confirm API limits the data requested to thirty-five (35) packages per transaction.

注意: The data returned by the Package Track Web Tools API is intended for display only. The content or sequence of the String data returned by the API may change. Consequently, if you desire to apply any kind of logic against the tracking data, then you will need to use the Track/Confirm fields.

3.0   Package Tracking “Fields” API

3.1     Overview

The Package Tracking “Fields” API is similar to the Package Track API except for the request fields, API name, and the return information. Data returned still contains the detail and summary information, but this information is broken down into fields instead of having only one line of text. Up to 10 tracking IDs may be contained in each API request to the Web Tools server.
