Whistl to Parcelhub migration
The original Whistl API has been turned off. New Whistl connections will use the Parcelhub connection moving forward.

Manage multiple accounts (Whistl and Parcelhub)
Following a recent update, you can manage multiple accounts if you have both Whistl and Parcelhub services using the Account Type dropdown. The default setting is Parcelhub, but if you have a separate Whistl account, you can add it alongside your Parcelhub integration. We'll use the Whistl account for any Whistl services you've set up.
