Integration: Itching to start generating shipping labels today? Get to work! Shippo is a very lightweight implementation and uses only native FileMaker with 6 scripts. Getting Started Sign up for Shippo Shippo makes it very easy to get started. Set up Billing Once you are in the Dashboard, fill out all of the information on the Account and Billing tabs otherwise your account will be suspended after generating a few shipping label requests.
Enable Shipping Carriers Click on the Carriers tab and enable all of the carriers that you want to use. Set up API Keys in Demo File We have provided a demo file at the bottom of this article that will get you started with the basic example to integrate into your custom solutions. Breakdown Now that you've tested with the demo file, let's breakdown exactly what we did so that you can build it yourself or use the demo file if you wish.
Scripts You need to create 6 scripts: Startup You need to create or modify a script that runs on startup of the FileMaker database. After going to the new layout, set the global constant 1 field to the value of 1. You will use this global to make the chosen shipping rate relationship work that you created earlier. Create a Shipment You need to create a new script that generates a shipment in Shippo. Add three more variables: one for the Shippo test token, one for the Shippo live token, and one for the checkbox that determines if the live or test token is used.
Next, set all the variables for the company that is shipping the product company name, phone, email, fax, address, city, state, and zip. After that, set all the variables for the customer full name, company, address 1, address 2, city, state, zip, country, email, and phone. All of this information is on the order screen so there is no need to use a relationship here, just use the ORDER context and ensure you are on the ORDER context when running the script. Then, set all the variables for the shipping info weight, length, height, width, and requires customs declaration checkbox.
In this step, you can choose to validate that all of the variables you set are present before you run the rest of the script. We recommend doing this so that you aren't wasting time with the API call if all of the variables are not set correctly. Next, check to see if the shipment requires a customs declaration.
If it does, you will run the " Create a Customs Declaration " script that we will go over in the next script breakdown. Check that the script doesn't return an error. If there are no errors, expect a customs declaration ID to be returned to be added to the JSON request payload in the next step.
Now that all the variables are set, you need to wrap it all up in a nice JSON variable to be sent as a request payload. You can see exactly how Shippo wants to receive this request payload here. You will use this later to create shipping rates.
I strongly suggest, however, that you enter preview mode and double check your results before printing from a labels layout. With some printer-avery Label combinations, the last row of labels won't be printed--the data for them gets printed on the first row of the next page--until you "tweak" the dimensions of your layout parts slightly in order to get it all to print like you want without wasting a row of labels on each page.
