Using PostNord Public APIs in JavaScript

PostNord provides a range of public APIs that developers can use to access shipping and logistics data. These APIs can be integrated into apps and websites, allowing users to access real-time information about shipments, pickup points, and delivery times.

In order to use the PostNord APIs in JavaScript, you will need to obtain an API key from the developer portal. Once you have your key, you can use it to make requests to the various endpoints provided by the APIs. Here are some examples of how to use the PostNord APIs in JavaScript:

Retrieving Shipping Information

To retrieve shipping information for a specific tracking number, you can use the shipment endpoint. Here's an example of how to use this endpoint in JavaScript:

const apiKey = 'your-api-key';
const trackingNumber = 'your-tracking-number';

fetch(`https://api2.postnord.com/rest/shipment/v2/trackandtrace/findByIdentifier.json?id=${trackingNumber}&locale=en&apikey=${apiKey}`)
    .then(response => response.json())
    .then(data => console.log(data));

In this example, we are using the fetch() method to make a GET request to the shipment endpoint. We provide the tracking number as a query parameter, along with our API key and the desired format and locale. When the response is returned, we convert it to JSON and log it to the console.

Finding Pickup Points

To find pickup points near a specific location, you can use the pickuppoints endpoint. Here's an example of how to use this endpoint in JavaScript:

const apiKey = 'your-api-key';
const latitude = 'your-latitude';
const longitude = 'your-longitude';

fetch(`https://api2.postnord.com/rest/businesslocation/v1/pickuppoints/nearby.json?latitude=${latitude}&longitude=${longitude}&maxNo=10&radius=10000&locale=en&origin=coord&apikey=${apiKey}`)
    .then(response => response.json())
    .then(data => console.log(data));

In this example, we are using the fetch() method to make a GET request to the pickuppoints endpoint. We provide the latitude and longitude as query parameters, along with other optional parameters such as the maximum number of results and the search radius. When the response is returned, we convert it to JSON and log it to the console.

Retrieving Delivery Times

To retrieve delivery times for a specific shipment, you can use the deliverytime endpoint. Here's an example of how to use this endpoint in JavaScript:

const apiKey = 'your-api-key';
const fromPostalCode = 'your-from-postal-code';
const toPostalCode = 'your-to-postal-code';

fetch(`https://api2.postnord.com/rest/timeapi/v1/deliverytime.json?from=${fromPostalCode}&to=${toPostalCode}&weightInGrams=500&productCode=PA&apikey=${apiKey}`)
    .then(response => response.json())
    .then(data => console.log(data));

In this example, we are using the fetch() method to make a GET request to the deliverytime endpoint. We provide the postal codes for the origin and destination of the shipment, along with other optional parameters such as the weight of the shipment and the product code. When the response is returned, we convert it to JSON and log it to the console.

These are just a few examples of how to use the PostNord APIs in JavaScript. With these APIs, developers can create powerful logistics applications that make it easy for users to track shipments, find pickup points, and more.
