Build delivery into your product

Authentication

Authenticate with an organization-scoped API key in the x-api-key header. Live keys (mm_live_) create real orders; test keys (mm_test_) create simulated deliveries that never dispatch a courier. Issue and revoke keys from your Maxmove dashboard, scoped to exactly the resources you need.

Quickstart

Discover a vehicle type, quote a route, then create the delivery with the same route, a contact for pickup and dropoff, and an Idempotency-Key. Poll tracking until the delivery arrives. Replace the key and quote id with your own.

# 1. Discover vehicle types
curl https://api.maxmove.com/v1/vehicle-types \
  -H "x-api-key: $MAXMOVE_KEY"

# 2. Quote a route
curl -X POST https://api.maxmove.com/v1/quotes \
  -H "x-api-key: $MAXMOVE_KEY" -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -d '{
    "pickup":  { "address": "Ehrenstraße 15, Köln", "latitude": 50.9385, "longitude": 6.9469 },
    "dropoff": { "address": "Königsallee 27, Düsseldorf", "latitude": 51.2233, "longitude": 6.7768 },
    "vehicle_type_id": "courier"
  }'

# 3. Create the delivery: the quoted route plus pickup and dropoff contacts.
#    quote_id locks the quoted price; Idempotency-Key makes retries safe.
curl -X POST https://api.maxmove.com/v1/deliveries \
  -H "x-api-key: $MAXMOVE_KEY" -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -H 'Idempotency-Key: order-4711' \
  -d '{
    "quote_id": "qt_…",
    "pickup": {

      "contact": { "name": "Shop Ehrenstraße", "phone": "+49 221 0000000" }
    },
    "dropoff": {

      "instructions": "Ring at reception"
    },
    "vehicle_type_id": "courier",
    "external_id": "order-4711"
  }'

# 4. Track until delivered
