APIs that turn cross-border into a solved problem.

3PLs and carriers integrate Yakit to classify orders, pull consignee-complete shipments and push normalized tracking back to marketplaces — so your merchants get great SLAs and you win more cross-border volume.

What the API does

Three capabilities, fully documented

API Flow 2

Order pulling with all shipping details

Yakit pulls orders from the marketplace, classifies them and creates a virtual shipment with categories and HS codes. Your platform ("Shipper") reads that data to print labels and fulfil the order — you keep the merchant relationship, payments and support.

  • Authenticate with Basic Access auth (username + account key from Preferences).
  • Create account & register a callback URL; merchants attach Shopify/Etsy stores via an SSON link (add &channel=etsy or shopify to skip the Channels page).
  • Get a webhook hit with the Yakit shipmentId each time a new order is pulled, then call Get Open Shipment for full details.
  • Print the label, then call updateShipment with the AWB number to mark the order dispatched.

Assumption: the Shipper doesn't hold the OrderId and pulls it from Yakit via webhooks. Summarized from Yakit API Flow 2 — Shipping Platform integration (Orders pulling), v1.3.

ORDER-PULL SEQUENCE

01

authenticate

Basic Auth against the Yakit endpoint.

02

createAccount + SSON

Register callback URL; merchant links their store.

03

order webhook

Callback fires with the Yakit shipmentId.

04

updateShipment

Push AWB → order marked dispatched.

API Flow 3

Normalized tracking pushed to the marketplace

Push your AWB into a Yakit shipment and Yakit pulls your events from Aftership (or your native adapter), normalizes them per marketplace spec and posts them to Etsy and Shopify. Etsy is integrated as a virtual carrier.

  • Create the shipment (or reuse one created via order-pull) and push the AWB with updateShipment.
  • Yakit normalizes events and pushes them; on Etsy the order is marked Complete, on Shopify it's marked Fulfilled with carrier + AWB.
  • One Master login tracks all shipments for all merchants — no sub-account per merchant needed for tracking.
  • Aftership integration needs your slug (e.g. yakit) and API key; the Shipper is billed by Aftership per shipment.
  • Buyers & sellers see a clean, unified tracking timeline mapped from your AWB via the Yakit ShipmentId.

Classification & landed cost

HS codes and landed cost in under three seconds

The Yakit Classifier takes any input — text, a product URL or an image URL, in any language — and returns an HS code plus a full duty-and-tax landed-cost breakdown for the destination country.

  • Any input, any language — classify from a description, link or image.
  • Under 3 seconds with Yakit's AI-in-the-loop™ ML for high precision.
  • Country-specific duties & taxes so buyers see accurate landed cost at checkout and shipments clear customs cleanly.
  • Continuous improvement — accuracy and speed keep getting better over time.
