Overview

The Transport & Delivery API offers endpoints to retrieve quotes for vehicle transportation and delivery services. By integrating this API into your platform, you can provide customers with a seamless experience to order transport services directly.

Let’s follow the example scenario below:

Matt works for a large automotive sales platform, AutoHub. AutoHub wants to integrate the Transport & Delivery API into their online services, allowing customers to order transport services without the need for a salesperson.

To complete this scenario, you will need to:

  1. Enter route details.
  2. Capture contact information.
  3. Receive a quote.
  4. Order transport services.
