Get quotes/shipping updates

[Omrico]

Hello and thank you for everyone 

I have api documentation from a Delivery Company and I would like to get shipping quote to our airtable

That’s what I got from them

https://api.aitworldwide.com

if anyone have idea I would love to know 

thank you 🙏🏻

Yeah should be doable with JavaScript.  It seems to expect a specific format when you request the data via 'Get Quotes' and it doesn't seem like they provide said schema?  Might need to experiment a bit or if you could ask them for an example request that'd be best

In addition to doing this by writing custom JavaScript programming code, you actually have 2 different ways of doing this in a no-code/low-code way that doesn’t require writing any Javascript programming code at all:

1. You can do this by using the DataFetcher extension for Airtable.

2. You can do this with Make’s advanced automations and integrations. You would just need to use Make’s XML modules to create the XML code, and then use Make’s HTTP modules to make the API calls. And of course, you would tie it all into Airtable by using Make’s Airtable automations.

If you’ve never used Make before, I’ve assembled a bunch of Make training resources in this thread. For example, here is one of the ways that you could instantly trigger a Make automation from Airtable. I also give live demonstrations of how to use Make in many of my Airtable podcast appearances. For example, in this video, I show how to work with Airtable arrays in Make.

Hope this helps!
