AMPM credential requirements

Prior to shipping with AMPM, you must configure credentials in the Shipium Console. You'll provide a user name, API key, and account number for production and test mode.

For single-parcel shipments, the following additional required field should be nested in the shipmentParameters property. For multi-parcel shipments, it should be included in multiParcelShipmentParameters.

Reference Field	Required/Optional	Field Properties	Description
`customsInfo .customsDescription`	Required	String Ex.: `mercancia`	The detailed description of the items being shipped; the default value is `mercancia`. Although there is a default value, as this is a strict requirement, providing the most accurate product description possible is recommended.

A snippet of the JSON request for the API call with the required field is included. This example is for a single-parcel shipment. A multi-parcel shipment would be included in multiParcelShipmentParameters.

{
"shipmentParameters": {

   "customsInfo":  {
       "customsDescription": "mercancia",
       ...
     }
 }
