Third party shipping: Set up Shippit integration

Step 1:  Set up Shippit

You need to enable a shipment webhook, which allows updates to the status of created and dispatched packages. You also need to note the Shippit API key.

1. Login to your Shippit account.
2. Go to Settings -> Integrations
3. Copy or otherwise record the Shippit API key.
4. In the Webhook URL field enter the marketplace's URL in the following pattern:
   https://[public domain]/webhooks/shippit
   e.g. https://www.marketplacer.com/webhooks/shippit
5. Click Update.

Step 2: Set up Marketplacer

The seller needs to link the seller portal to their Shippit account.
