July 2026

Two new couriers, expanded manifest and API tooling, cross-border customs depth, and a major platform upgrade that landed cleanly beneath the surface.

New Couriers & Integrations

GLS Czechia New GLS Czechia courier integration added.

Orange Connex New Orange Connex courier integration, with a Create Manifest endpoint and label-saving support.

InPost (formerly Yodel) Yodel branding has been fully migrated to InPost across labels and tracking URLs, reflecting InPost's acquisition and consolidation of the Yodel network. Existing shipments continue to track seamlessly on the new endpoints.

Consero New courier integration added, with multi-shipment support so multiple consignments can be created in a single request.

The Delivery Group Now available as the successor to Secured Mail. New integrations should select The Delivery Group; existing Secured Mail connections continue to work as a legacy option.

Courier Enhancements

UPSv2: Token Renewal & Re-authentication You can now renew UPSv2 tokens directly, keeping connections alive without a full re-authorisation, with improved handling of the OAuth redirect modals.

FedEx V2: Cross-Border (P2P) & ZPL Added MID, SPI and NSPI handling for EU/US cross-border shipments, plus additional TINs support. ZPL can now be returned as an array (with a deprecation warning), while the string return remains the default for consistency with other couriers.

Royal Mail Click & Drop: 1st July Trade Term Updates Updated to reflect Royal Mail's July trade and delivery term changes, including correct handling of explicit zero customs duty (now treated as 0 rather than blank) and stripping of non-ASCII item descriptions to prevent malformed submissions.

DHL: UKIMS Support for Northern Ireland Added UKIMS number support for shipments into Northern Ireland, aiding Windsor Framework compliance.

DPD: Legacy API Auth You can now register a DPD legacy authentication directly via the API.

ParcelHub: Channel Islands Guernsey and Jersey (GG, JE) ISO codes now pass through correctly to Parcelhub.

Platform & API

Log File Retrieval Endpoint New /api/requests/{dcRequestId} endpoint to retrieve log files for a given request.

PDF Processor Migration Migrated the PDF processor to a new package, improving reliability of label and document generation.

Transmissions Labels Label size and orientation are now rendered correctly for TransMission shipments.

Bug Fixes & Performance

Resolved courier token overwrite on re-login; corrected Pallet-Track / Bullet Express label decoding with a 10x4 size guard; Pallet-Track now sends empty delivery times as null; and ArrowXL delivery windows now cast correctly when additional days are added. We also fixed Yodel C2C label cropping and scaling, rotated Dunelm labels to portrait when returned as landscape, corrected GFS weight and item-commodity matching beyond three decimal places, and fixed Dachser transport-order line items and the Pro Carrier / DG International API hostname.

Alongside these, we completed the PHP 8.4 / Laravel 13 platform upgrade. This standardised numeric and boolean type casting across the system (weights, dimensions and courier auth IDs) and moved timestamps to Zulu (UTC) format, keeping webhook payloads and internal comparisons consistent. We also resolved intermittent DPD NL label failures caused by expired authentication tokens.
