UPS API Integration Services

We connect UPS to your storefront, WMS, OMS or ERP such as SYSPRO, Epicor Prophet 21 or NetSuite. Integrations use the UPS REST APIs with OAuth 2.0 for rating, shipping, tracking, address validation, pickups and paperless invoices, and can run on their own or as one carrier in a multi-carrier shipping platform we build for you.

What We Build

Rating and Time in Transit

Request negotiated account rates from the UPS Rating API across Ground, 3 Day Select, 2nd Day Air, Next Day Air, Ground Saver and international services, and combine them with transit time estimates for checkout or order entry.

Shipping API Labels

Create shipments and labels through the UPS Shipping API in GIF, PNG, ZPL or EPL, including multi-package shipments, return services and international documents.

Tracking

Pull tracking activity from the UPS Tracking API, or subscribe to tracking events where your account supports it, and push normalised statuses to your order system and customers.

Address Validation

Validate and classify addresses as residential or commercial before labels are created, which avoids address correction charges and failed deliveries.

Paperless Invoice

Upload commercial invoices and other trade documents electronically through the UPS Paperless Documents API so international shipments move without printed paperwork.

Pickups

Request, check and cancel UPS pickups through the Pickup API, tied to the shipments created that day.

How We Build Your Integration

01

Discovery

We map your order flow, UPS account setup and service mix, and where shipment data needs to go: storefront, WMS, OMS or ERP.

02

Architecture

We design OAuth 2.0 token handling with client ID and secret, error and retry rules, rate caching, and the data mapping between UPS and your order records.

03

Development

We build against the UPS REST APIs with request validation, readable error mapping and the connectors back into your systems.

04

Testing

We test in the UPS customer integration environment with domestic, multi-package, international and return scenarios before switching to production.

05

Launch and Support

We go live with monitoring on errors and latency, and keep the integration current as UPS versions its APIs and services.

Supported Platforms

We integrate with the platforms your business already uses, ensuring a smooth workflow from checkout to delivery.

Use Cases

Warehouse and ERP Shipping

Create UPS labels at the packing station from your WMS, or straight from sales orders in SYSPRO, Epicor Prophet 21 or NetSuite, and write tracking numbers and shipping charges back to the order.

Storefront Checkout Rates

Show live UPS rates at checkout on Shopify, WooCommerce or a custom store, calculated from your account rates, package dimensions and destination.

International Shipping

Generate commercial invoices, upload them with Paperless Invoice, and track cross-border shipments through customs from the same workflow as domestic orders.

Multi-Carrier Shipping Platform

Run UPS as one carrier inside a shipping platform that also connects FedEx, DHL, Canada Post or Purolator, with rate shopping and rules choosing the carrier per order.

Why Choose ZyroByte

Current UPS APIs

OAuth 2.0 and REST throughout. UPS retired access-key authentication, and we migrate older integrations that still depend on it.

Connected to Your Systems

UPS wired into your ERP, WMS, OMS and storefront so shipping data flows without re-keying.

Production Reliability

Timeouts, retries with backoff and fallback behaviour so a slow UPS response does not stop your warehouse.

Ongoing Maintenance

We follow UPS API version and service changes and update the integration ahead of them.

Secure Credentials

Client secrets stored encrypted server-side, with access tokens kept out of client code and logs.

Built for Volume

Queued label creation, rate caching and batch processing for peak season.

UPS OAuth 2.0 Migration

UPS no longer accepts the old access-key authentication; every API call now needs an OAuth 2.0 bearer token obtained with a client ID and secret. Integrations and plugins built on access keys stop working until they are migrated. We move them to OAuth, update request formats to the current REST APIs, and test against your real shipping scenarios before cutover.

UPS Rating API Integration

The UPS Rating API returns rates for a single service or all available services for a shipment. We build rate calculation that accounts for package dimensions, dimensional weight, residential surcharges, negotiated account rates and multi-package shipments, with caching so checkout stays fast without calling UPS on every page view.

UPS Integration for ERP and Warehouses

We connect UPS to SYSPRO, Epicor Prophet 21, NetSuite and custom order systems so shipments are created from orders, labels print on thermal printers in ZPL or EPL, and tracking numbers and shipping charges return to the ERP without manual entry.

UPS Label Generation and Service Mapping

We automate label creation for single and multi-package shipments, returns and international documents, and keep service mappings current, including UPS Ground Saver, the service previously known as UPS SurePost.
