Overview
If you are sending domestically within Australia and you have an account with Aus Post yourself, you can link that to GoSweetSpot and use your services via our platform. This is currently limited to the Startrack and eParcel services.
To do this, you need to register your account with Aus Post's developer centre and provide some credentials for us to input. This is explained in more detail below.
Creating Aus Post API Credentials
To add your account, you first need to generate a request for API production credentials on the Australia Post Developer Centre here: https://developers.auspost.com.au/apis. From here you will can create a login and receive email confirmation.
Once confirmed, return to the Developer Centre and complete a registration request. The requestee needs to be a registered owner of the account. Once they have registered on the Dev Centre, a case will be created to generate API production credentials.
Note, during registration you will be asked if you are using a "Platform Partner" which you need to confirm. You will then be asked to select a Platform from a drop down menu. Please use the "Other" option from the drop down menu, then provide our name: "Go Sweet Spot".
Linking Credentials With GoSweetSpot
Once you have a set of API credentials, you will need to set this up in GoSweetSpot. You can do this by logging into to https://ship.gosweetspot.com/ and navigating to Administration --> Manage Carriers.
Add a New Carrier:
Once you have created the link on GoSweetSpot and input the API credentials, you can validate if your account has supported services. If so, click 'Finish' to finalise the set up and the carrier will be available for use.
This will have loaded the carrier and you should now be able to see rates for your services under Create --> Outbound and Export.
