Introduction
Welcome to Shipping Envia API!
Envia is a multi-carrier shipping platform that connects your application to 100+ shipping carriers worldwide through a single API integration. Instead of building and maintaining separate integrations with FedEx, DHL, UPS, and dozens of regional carriers, you integrate once with Envia and access them all.
We handle carrier communication, label generation, rate quoting, tracking, and address validation so you can focus on your core product.
The Envia API ecosystem
Envia provides three APIs, each optimized for specific workflows:
Your primary interface for executing shipping operations. Get rates, create labels, track packages, schedule pickups, cancel shipments, generate manifests, and create commercial invoices.
A read-only API for discovery, validation, and operational insights. Look up carrier availability, validate addresses, retrieve reference data, and fetch shipment history.
Provides geocoding and postal code validation. Validate zip codes, locate cities, and ensure address accuracy before shipping to reduce failed deliveries.

Envia provides two environments for development and production:

You don't need all three APIs for every integration. Start with the Shipping API for basic shipping, then add Queries and Geocodes as you need address validation and discovery features.
