To generate a Shipping label via yayloh using your nShift account, you need to create a nShift API key and secret ID for yayloh. yayloh expects your nShift to be correctly set up for the kind of routes and labels you intend to generate.
To set up a Shipping carrier account in yayloh, send the following information to support@yayloh.com:
Shipping carrier and exact service code names

Example shipping labels
Carrier rules
API key & Secret ID (read below)
Credentials Specification:
Shipping carrier and exact service code names
Provide us the shipping carriers of your choice (DB Schenker, UPS, etc), their exact service codes in nShift (UPS Express saver is indicated by a code which is a shortened service name in nshift), and the Quick ID.
Example Shipping labels
To test the credentials at our end, send us one sample label for each shipping carrier which you want to set up. We can verify the shipping labels on your end.
