This document contains a Reference Guide to the eVS international label APIs: Priority Mail Express International, Priority Mail International, and First Class Mail International (First Class Package International Service). See the Developers Guide to learn the administrative process for gaining access to the Web Tools APIs as well as the basic mechanism for calling the APIs and processing the results. The Developer’s Guide also contains information on testing and troubleshooting.

Nota: The Request Parameter sections present the XML input tags for generating live requests along with the restrictions on the values allowed. An error message will be returned if an incorrect value is entered. Also, be aware of the maximum character amounts allowed for some tags. If the user enters more than those amounts, an error will not be generated. The Web Tool will simply pass in the characters up to the maximum amount allowed and disregard the rest. This is important since the resulting value could prevent a correct response.

When building the XML request, pay particular attention to the order and case for tags. An error message will be returned if an incorrect value is entered. Remember that all data and attribute values in this document are for illustration purposes and are to be replaced by your actual values. For instance, a line of sample code may be:

In this instance, you will replace “2” with the weight in pounds for the package.

1.1 Before you get started:

The only option for creating labels through our APIs requires eVS setup/enrollment. In general, eVS:

· Requires 50 pieces or 50 pounds per mailing

· Requires a permit imprint

· Requires payment via ACH debit daily (no other forms of payment)

· Handles origin entered mail (no destination entry or presort)

· Requires enrollment and new Mailer IDs (MIDs) and permits

· Will do domestic/international/apo/fpo/dpo/US Territories

eVS, or Electronic Verification System, allows high-volume package mailers and package consolidators to document and pay postage, including special service fees, using electronic manifest files. The files are transmitted over the Internet to a Postal Service™ database. eVS is designed to make it easy for high-volume package mailers to take advantage of destination entry rates.

If you want to explore using eVS, please first contact the eVS@usps.gov.

For registration please visit: https://es.usps.com/postalone/evs.htm. If that will not work for you, then you can follow up with sales@usps.gov (or your local Postmaster or USPS Sales Manager) for additional solutions outside of the Web Tools API suite.

Nota: The “Certify” API signatures are for testing purposes and will not generate usable labels and barcodes.

Whether you are a new or existing mailer, USPS strongly suggests a conversation with you to discuss your business requirements so your account will be properly configured. To initiate this conversation please contact the National Customer Support Center (NCSC) at 877-264-9693 Option 4 and request a referral to an Operations Integration Specialist (OIS) and Technical Integration Specialist (TIS). USPS will align the appropriate team to assist with swift onboarding.

Depending on your needs, your account may be configured in many flexible ways; however, each account will be configured with credentials in a master/child relationship. Minimally, credentials will be established as follows:

· A master Mailer ID is created

o Child Mailer IDs are created for each origin site and may be created as needed by the requirements of your business units and brands.

· A permit number is created

o Additional permit numbers may be created as needed by the requirements of your business units and brands

· A CAPS Debit account is created for payment processing

o Additional CAPS Debit accounts may be created as needed

Your Operations Integration Specialist and Technical Integration Specialist will be involved at the local and national levels to ensure successful launch and introduction to appropriate production support teams.

For information on registering and getting started with Web Tools, please refer to the Step-By-Step guide found on the Web Tools Technical Documentation Page.

Nota: All Label APIs handle a pipe special character (“|”) as a space. Integrators are recommended to not include a pipe special character (“|”) in the API request. If a pipe is provided in the API request, Web Tools will treat as a space where applicable in the API XML response, label image, Shipping Partner Event File, and Shipping Services File.

Nota: All Label APIs can accept a trademark symbol (“™”) in the XML request but any response from the API will strip the symbol from the text (e.g., Firm Name) and will not display the symbol on the printed labels.
