Packeta API
Globe Pickup Points natively integrates with Packeta, enabling seamless order management and parcel tracking directly from Shopify. With this integration, you can:
- Send your orders to your Packeta portal
- Print shipping labels within Shopify
- Synchronize delivery statuses between Packeta and Shopify
- Track cash on delivery payments automatically
Enabling Packeta API integration
Follow these steps to enable the Packeta API integration in Globe Pickup Points:
-
Navigate to Globe Pickup Points in your Shopify admin and open your Packeta / Zasilkovna provider (or create a new one).
-
Ensure your API key and API password are filled in correctly. These credentials can be obtained from your Packeta account.
-
Under Export settings, enable the export feature and configure the following options:
- Sender label: Specify your sender label if you have multiple senders in your Packeta account.
- Automatic fulfillment: Choose to automatically mark the order as fulfilled either:
- When the order is exported to Packeta.
- When the parcel is physically handed over to Packeta.
- Order tagging: Automatically tag the Shopify order with the packet tracking code for easy reference.
- Cash on delivery status: Automatically mark CoD orders as paid once the parcel is delivered.
-
Assign your Shopify store shipping methods to the corresponding Packeta carriers.
Exporting orders to Packeta
You can export orders to Packeta directly from Shopify in two ways:
- From the Orders Page: Select multiple orders and trigger the export in bulk.
- From the Order Detail Page: Open a specific order and trigger the export manually.
Once exported, the parcel details will be visible in your Packeta portal, and you can print shipping labels directly within Shopify.
Two-way synchronization with Packeta
The Packeta integration includes a two-way sync, ensuring the delivery status of your parcels is updated in Shopify as they progress through the shipping process. This helps you keep track of orders without switching between platforms.
Delivery statuses
The following delivery statuses are synced between Packeta and Shopify, allowing you to filter orders by status directly in your Shopify admin:
Status in Shopify | Description |
---|---|
Tracking added | The parcel has not yet been handed over to Packeta, or the status is unknown. |
In transit | The parcel is on its way to the destination. |
Out for delivery | The parcel is out for home delivery or ready for pickup at the collection point. |
Failed delivery | The parcel was not picked up, canceled, or encountered an error. |
Delivered | The parcel has been delivered or collected. |
These statuses can be used to filter orders in Shopify, making it easier to locate parcels quickly. For detailed tracking information, you can still click through to the tracking details in your Packeta portal, but these synced statuses provide an overview directly within Shopify.
Cash on delivery tracking
With Packeta’s integration, Globe automates cash on delivery (CoD) tracking. When a CoD parcel is delivered, the order is automatically marked as paid in Shopify. This ensures your accounting and order statuses are always up-to-date without manual intervention.
Summary
The Packeta API integration in Globe simplifies order management, label printing, and parcel tracking while keeping Shopify and Packeta in sync. By enabling automatic status updates and CoD tracking, this integration saves time and provides greater visibility into your delivery operations.
