Integrate iPaaS.com with ShipHawk to enable data synchronization for orders and shipment tracking.
How to Connect
Prerequisites
Before configuring the integration in iPaaS.com, set up the following in ShipHawk:
A ShipHawk account with access to the Developer API.
A ShipHawk API Key. Generate one in the ShipHawk portal under Settings > Developer API.
Configuration Details
Two values are needed to connect iPaaS.com to ShipHawk:
API Url: the ShipHawk API URL for your account. ShipHawk provides a tenant-specific URL in the form https://<tenant>.tms.myshiphawk.com (for example, a sandbox URL such as https://sandbox-example.tms.myshiphawk.com). Use your account's production URL for a live account, or your sandbox URL for testing.
API Key: the key that authorizes iPaaS.com to call the ShipHawk API on your behalf. Copy it from Settings > Developer API in the ShipHawk portal.
Configure Subscription Settings
Enter the connection values on the ShipHawk subscription settings page in iPaaS.com.
Field | Description | Required | Example |
API Url | Your ShipHawk API URL, provided by ShipHawk for your account (form: https://[tenant].tms.myshiphawk.com). | Yes | |
API Key | The ShipHawk API Key that authorizes API access, copied from Settings > Developer API in ShipHawk. | Yes | (your ShipHawk API Key) |
Authentication Methods
ShipHawk uses API Key authentication. iPaaS.com authenticates every ShipHawk API request using the API Key entered on the subscription settings page — no separate sign-in or token exchange is required. To rotate the credential, generate a new API Key in the ShipHawk portal under Settings > Developer API and update the API Key field on the ShipHawk subscription settings page in iPaaS.com.
Initialization Support
Currently, initialization is not supported for ShipHawk in iPaaS.com. All data synchronization and mappings must be configured during the integration setup. To load a large set of existing records, use the bulk sync using Postman approach.
Throttling
The subscription's throttle and concurrency fields control how quickly iPaaS.com sends requests to ShipHawk. They are pre-populated with the integration's values:
API Throttle Limit: 500
API Throttle Seconds: 60
Concurrent Connections: 2
Concurrent Batch Executions: 10
Matching throttle fields are provided for the TO iPaaS.com direction. As the settings page notes, reduce these values if you encounter rate limit errors. For details on these fields, see the Subscription Configuration – Edit Help Center article.
