Install shipengine from the Maven Central Repository by adding the following under the dependencies key in your pom.xml:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.shipengine</groupId>
    <artifactId>shipengine</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.1</version>
</dependency>

• The only configuration requirement for the SDK is providing an API Key.

import com.shipengine.ShipEngine;

public class ShipEngineDemo {
    public static void main() {
        ShipEngine shipengine = new ShipEngine("<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>");
    }
}

• You can also pass in a HashMap/Map containing configuration options instead of just passing in a string that is your API Key.

import com.shipengine.ShipEngine;

public class ShipEngineDemo {
    public static void main() {
        ShipEngine shipengine = new ShipEngine(new HashMap<>() {{
            put("apiKey", "<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>");
            put("pageSize", 75);
            put("retries", 3);
            put("timeout", 60000);
        }});
    }
}

• createLabelFromRate - When retrieving rates for shipments using the getRatesWithShipmentDetails method, the returned information contains a rateId property that can be used to purchase a label without having to refill in the shipment information repeatedly.
• createLabelFromShipmentDetails - Purchase and print a label for shipment.
• getRatesWithShipmentDetails - Given some shipment details and rate options, this method returns a list of rate quotes.
• listCarriers - Returns a list of carrier accounts that have been connected through the ShipEngine dashboard.
• trackUsingLabelId - Track a package by its associated label ID.
• trackUsingCarrierCodeAndTrackingNumber - Track a package for a given carrier and tracking number.
• validateAddresses - Indicates whether the provided addresses are valid. If the addresses are valid, the method returns a normalized version based on the standards of the country in which the address resides. If an address cannot be normalized, an error is returned.
• voidLabelWithLabelId - Void a label with its Label ID.
