Each application is a unique set of API keys and configuration settings needed for making requests to Ryder's APIs.
The TM Shipment API enables seamless integration for customers to manage shipments, loads, and tracking updates efficiently. It provides access to key resources, including Shipments, Shipment Requests, Loads, Ship Status, Ship Confirmation, and Event Notifications. By leveraging these resources, customers can initiate and configure shipments, monitor key events in real time, and track deliveries from creation to completion. This API enhances operational efficiency, improves shipment visibility, and streamlines supply chain processes.
