FAQ

Is Centra B2B supported?

What data does Centra's Order API offer that is Ingrid unique?

shipwallet_converted_method_id:

• This field holds the "external method id" set by the merchant on a specific carrier product in Ingrid's Merchant Platform. It's a free text field used for mapping carrier products from Centra's e-com orders to third-party solutions such as ERP, WMS, or OMSes.
