# Maxmove API

> Book and track same-day courier deliveries from your own software, receive signed webhooks, and push fleet orders onto your dispatch board.

The Maxmove API lets your software book deliveries without the dashboard: price a route, book a courier, follow the delivery, and get notified about every change. Fleets can also push their customers' orders straight onto their own dispatch board.

All requests go to one base URL. Live and test keys use the same base URL.

  - [Quickstart](https://maxmove.com/en/developers/docs/quickstart): Create a test delivery in four requests.
  - [Authentication](https://maxmove.com/en/developers/docs/authentication): Create API keys and choose their permissions.
  - [Webhooks](https://maxmove.com/en/developers/docs/webhooks/events): Receive a signed event for every delivery change.
  - [API reference](https://maxmove.com/en/developers/docs/api-reference): Every endpoint, field, and response, with a request playground.

## What you can build

- **Deliveries from your shop, ERP, or TMS.** [Quote a route](https://maxmove.com/en/developers/docs/concepts/quotes), [create the delivery](https://maxmove.com/en/developers/docs/concepts/deliveries), and track it until it is delivered.
- **Status sync.** Subscribe to [webhook events](https://maxmove.com/en/developers/docs/webhooks/events) instead of polling.
- **Order intake for fleets.** Let your customers' systems push orders onto your dispatch board with the [fleet order API](https://maxmove.com/en/developers/docs/fleet/order-ingestion).

## How a delivery works

**1. Quote**

`POST /v1/quotes` prices a route for one vehicle type. The quote is valid for about 5 minutes.

**2. Create**

`POST /v1/deliveries` books a courier for the same route, with a contact for pickup and dropoff.

**3. Track**

`GET /v1/deliveries/{deliveryId}/tracking` returns the status, ETA, and courier position. Webhooks report every change.

**4. Cancel if needed**

`POST /v1/deliveries/{deliveryId}/cancel` works until the courier has picked up the goods.

## Not a developer?

If you sell through Shopify, Shopware, or WooCommerce, or want to book in ChatGPT or Claude, you don't need to write code. See [Integrations](https://maxmove.com/en/developers/docs/integrations) for the ready-made apps, and the [Maxmove help center](https://maxmove.com/en/help) for everything about using Maxmove.
