How to Connect Your Custom Store to LateShipment.com

If you're using a custom store and would like to integrate with LateShipment.com to send shipment tracking and order data, follow the instructions below. This guide will walk you through setting up a secure webhook connection that allows us to receive and process your order data.

Step 1: Add the Webhook Code to Your Server

In your dashboard, navigate to the bottom left and click Settings > Connect Store, then select Others from the dropdown. To begin, add the following code to your server in the programming language of your choice. This snippet securely sends order and tracking data to LateShipment.com using your unique API key.

Python Example (we also provide code in Node.js, PHP, and Java):

import requests

url = "https://smart.lateshipment.com/Genericwebhook/webhookapi.php"

payload = "<< JSON Data >>"

headers = {

    'X-Auth-Email': "your_email@example.com",

    'X-Auth-Key': "your_api_key_here",

    'Content-Type': "application/json"

}

response = requests.post(url, data=payload, headers=headers)

print(response.text)

Replace << JSON Data >> with your actual payload in the format shown below.

Step 2: Trigger Event – Label Creation

You need to send a POST request with the JSON payload whenever a label is created for an order. This allows us to receive the latest tracking and order data in real time.
