Integration via API

Integration via API is a service provided by nShift making it easy to integrate your cloud-based ERP or WMS system with nShift Delivery resulting in simpler dispatch processing, safer transactions and significant time savings.

A REST API framework is used for communication, with JSON as data carrier offering a number of functions.
