Hi, where I can get guide on the API requests history.

I use API but it does not show negotiated rates from Easyship

Multi-parcel rates - only one courier returned (BUG?)

Using the API docs for Rate Request (https://developers.easyship.com/reference/rates_request), I've noticed that if I add more than one parcel to the payload the response only returns one courier (UPS). If I have only one parcel, then I get many couriers returned in the response (CanPar, UPS, Canada Post, Purolator… etc).

Hi, for my API integration, when I send a node-fetch request to https://api.easyship.com/2023-01/rates I am not seeing UPS as a carrier option but on the "Get a Quote" tab of the dashboard, I can see UPS Ground listed with the lowest price being $12.23. The lowest on the api is "USPS - Ground Advantage" with "total_charge": 15.76.

With pretty noticeably regularity, we are not starting to receive 502 timeout errors from the easyship API with HTML bodies instead of JSON as follows. This is a familiar issue when a server is behind a gateway that is having issues. Are you folks aware of this issue and working on it?

Flower Delivery

Hi, just wondering if we can use your service to deliver multiple flower bouquets or boxes in one run usually between 5 to 10 bouquets from one pick up location.

EasyShip <-> Zapier Connection Broken

Hi,

Creating Shipment, Why can't destination_address.contact_phone be blank?

https://developers.easyship.com/reference/shipments_create clearly shows that the phone contact is not required for destination address but when creating a shipment in sandbox is can't be null or blank. I do not want to collect phone numbers of my customers just to ship to them. Why is it not consistent?
