Triggering

Triggering a Route Map

Routemap

StarTracking always strives to provide a Route Map as quickly as possible.
However, in some cases, manually triggering a Route Map is required or highly recommended.

Triggering a CiQ shipment

You can trigger a CiQ shipment only if:

  • You are the legal owner of the Shipment Air Waybill (AWB) number.
  • The Carrier’s AWB number is in the CargoStart CiQ participating carriers list.

The request body requires the full AWB number and the full IATA Agent Code:

POST /ffw/startracking/routemap/sendsme HTTP/1.1
Host: api.startracking.aero
Authorization: Bearer {{BEARER TOKEN}}
Content-Type: application/json
Content-Length: 109

{
  "AirlinePrefix": "999",
  "AwbNumber": "12345675",
  "AgentCode": "3847361",
  "AgentCass": "0011"
}

In almost realtime, the AWB is sent to the Carrier, and a Route Map is returned.

Triggering a XTD shipment

You can trigger an XTD shipment request only if:

  • The Carrier’s AWB # is in the CargoStart XTD participating carriers list.

he request is similar to CiQ, but requires the IsXTD flag:

POST /ffw/startracking/routemap/sendsme HTTP/1.1
Host: api.startracking.aero
Authorization: Bearer {{BEARER TOKEN}}
Content-Type: application/json
Content-Length: 109

{
  "AirlinePrefix": "000",
  "AwbNumber": "12345675",
  "AgentCode": "3847361",
  "AgentCass": "0011",
  "IsXTD": true
}
