Announce a Shipment with Label

with Sendcloud
Works with AI assistants

Announce a shipment synchronously and retrieve its generated label link.

  1. Create and announce the shipment synchronously so the label is generated in the same call, returning the shipment id and its parcels.
  2. Re-read the shipment by its id to confirm it persisted and to surface the current parcel status and tracking details.
