What moves, and which way
Integrations run in both directions. What follows is what this connection is for.
En Garde to ShipStation
- Shipment creation and label requests, where the carrier API supports them.
ShipStation to En Garde
- Shipment status, tracking events, delivery confirmation, and rates.
Connecting it
You generate a key in the platform and paste it into En Garde. The key is tested against the live API before it is stored, so a wrong or under-scoped key fails at setup rather than silently later.
- Generate an API key in the platform, with the permissions its documentation lists for third-party access.
- Open Integrations in your Brand Space and find the platform on the Integrations tab.
- Click Connect. Paste the key into the API key field — the eye toggle reveals what you pasted so you can check it.
- Click Test Connection. En Garde calls the platform with the key and reports whether it worked.
- Save. The Save button will not store an untested key, so a failing test has to be fixed first.
