List Shipments

Since shipments power most of our services, we allow you to query and manage them. By querying shipments, you expose a paged service that allows you to use multiple filters.

Query Parameters	Description
batch_id	string, See warning below this table when filtering by `batch_id`
tag	string
shipment_status	`pending`, `processing`, `label_purchased`, `cancelled`
modified_at_start	date string, (ISO 8601 Standard) `2019-07-25T15:24:46.657Z`
modified_at_end	date string, (ISO 8601 Standard) `2019-07-25T15:24:46.657Z`
created_at_start	date string, (ISO 8601 Standard) `2019-07-25T15:24:46.657Z`
created_at_end	date string, (ISO 8601 Standard) `2019-07-25T15:24:46.657Z`
page	integer, defaults to 1
page_size	integer, defaults to 100
sort_dir	`asc` or `desc`
sort_by	`modified_at`, `created_at`

Warning

Filtering by Batch ID

If you filter by batch, the API will ignore shipment_status, modified_at_start, modified_at_end, created_at_start, created_at_end, and tag. The API assumes you are opening a batch to view what's in the batch queue, and batch_id is the only relevant filter since there are no other filters when executing a batch operation.

Example

GET /v1/shipments

Let's get a list of the last package we sent using the east_warehouse tag.

curl -iX GET https://api.shipengine.com/v1/shipments?tag=east_warehouse&page=1&page_size=1&sort_dir=desc&sort_by=created_at \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'API-Key: __YOUR_API_KEY_HERE__'
