Each carrier and 3PL has their own methods of handling login and authentication for
getting bills of lading, proof of delivery, and delivery status information. Once you
have the proper information entered from your carriers into the Carrier Credentials
forms, you can use our API to get information from any of your carriers.
Visibility API - includes /status[1],
/date, /lading[2], /proof[3], and /images, as
direct API operations, as well as /sign[4] and
/webhook[5].
/rating - supports our unified /rating[6] API and simplified web interface at /rating after login
/ebol_21 - supports NMFTA DLC's eBOL 2.1.0 standard API
