Turkish: Kargo Entegrasyonu

Shipping integration connects an e-commerce platform to carrier APIs (Yurtiçi, Aras, MNG) for automated shipment management.

What is Shipping Integration?

Shipping integration connects an order system to carrier APIs such as Yurtiçi Kargo, Aras Kargo, MNG, Sürat, or other logistics providers in Turkey. It allows the store to create shipments, generate labels, and keep tracking information inside the commerce platform instead of entering each order manually in a carrier panel.

A typical flow validates the delivery address, selects a carrier and service type, sends a shipment creation request, receives a barcode or label, and stores the tracking number on the order. Shipment movements can be updated through webhooks, scheduled polling, or file exchange. Cash on delivery, volumetric weight, return codes, and branch pickup rules often affect the integration design in Turkey.

Business Use

  • Bulk shipment slips and label generation for e-commerce orders
  • Customer tracking links, SMS, or email notifications
  • Automated return code creation for reverse logistics
  • Shipment data synchronization with warehouse, inventory, and accounting systems

A resilient integration should cover address standardization, carrier error codes, retry rules, and a manual fallback when a carrier API is unavailable. The topic is tightly connected to e-commerce, API integration, and inventory management.
