About

The CG Service API is built on a REST architecture. Some of the functions available to users of the API include the ability to:

• Create an order.
• Request real-time information about an order.
• Request ship tracking information, including a tracking url for an order.

Access Token

An AccessToken is used to allow access to the API's. Although you can pass the token as a request param in the url as shown in the examples, we recommend passing as an Authorization header parameter like the following:

AccessToken

Output

By default the CG Service API returns json. Set a Header param "Accept: application/xml" to get the result in xml.

Rate Limiting

Order lookups (GET Requests) cannot exceed 10 requests per second (1 request every 100 milliseconds) per ip address
