How to Test Courier Partner Credentials in the Carrier’s Staging Environment on Clickpost

Modified on Mon, 23 Mar at 12:05 PM

For internal testing, enterprises can create shipments using the carrier partner’s staging environment. To test carrier credentials in the staging account, the only prerequisite is having access to a Clickpost staging account.

If you do not have a Clickpost staging account, you can reach out to support@clickpost.in. The support team will assist you in setting up a test account.

Follow the steps below if you have not yet configured or updated the courier partner. If the configuration is already complete, you can proceed directly to Step 7.

1. Log in to the Clickpost dashboard using: https://dashboard.clickpost.ai

/ and navigate to the left navigation panel to Settings --> Carrier --> Carrier Integrations.

2. Under the "Carrier" tab, click on the Carrier Integrations tab and search for the Courier partner name that you want to configure and click on "View Details."

3. Add the account name by clicking on "Configure New Carrier Account."

4. Add the account name and click "Submit."

This is the "account_code" that you need to pass in the Clickpost API to identify this account.

5. Input the staging API credentials provided by courier partner for the added account and click "Submit".

7. Once completed, you will see a “Test” switch, which is enabled by default. When the switch is enabled, requests are routed to the courier partner’s production environment.

When the switch is disabled (as shown in the screenshot below), requests are routed to the courier partner’s staging environment.

Note: If you intend to use the production environment, ensure that you enter the production credentials in Step 5 and then click Submit. Similarly, to use the staging environment, enter the staging credentials in Step 5 and click Submit to route requests accordingly.
