🎉 ShipEngine is becoming ShipStation API 🎉

Over the next few months you'll notice the ShipEngine website, documentation portal, and dashboard being rebranded as ShipStation API. For our ShipEngine customers, you don't need to take any action or change any of your integrations in any way. All endpoints will remain the same and continue to function as they always have.

To learn more about what's coming, review our New ShipStation API page.

List Connected LTL Carriers

This endpoint returns a list of all your connected LTL carrier accounts, along with helpful information about each account, including the various accessorial services, container types, and service levels available.

To list the details for a single carrier, use the list a single carrier call with the specified carrier's carrier_id.

Container Types & Accessorial Services

If you have experience with LTL shipping, you are probably familiar with speaking about LTL shipments in terms of the container used for shipping as well as the possible accessorial services you might wish to utilize.

In ShipStation API, when you see package, this refers to the LTL shipper's container type offerings. Likewise, accessorial services are simply referred to as options in ShipStation API.
