- Go to https://www.ups.com/lasso/login. Log in with your username for the current UPS SOAP API. (If you do not have a profile, please see the official guide from UPS on how to create a user and API key here).
- Fill in the password. Also, use the same password you use for the current UPS SOAP API.
- Go to the My Apps page: https://developer.ups.com/apps
- Add a new app:
- Make sure you select “I want to integrate UPS technology into my business”. Select the available account(s) or add a new one.
- Fill in the form and submit it.
- Go back to My Apps and click on the App you created in the previous step. Copy-paste the available Client ID and Client Secret and send them to the nShift contact person that is responsible for the configuration of the new UPS Rest API.
Make sure to enable the right products. Shipping and Authorization are mandatory but we recommend adding the following:
- Shipping
- Tracking
- Paperless Documents
- Time in Transit
- Locator
- Pickup
- Rating
OAuth should automatically be selected and be non-removable, but if not automatically selected please do so.
IMPORTANT: If you decide to use Rates, Pickup requests, or the upload of paperless documents in the future, and these options are not enabled in this portal, you will get a token authorization error. We highly recommend enabling these products from the beginning to prevent that.
