Shipment Connector

Shipment Connector for Business Central Cloud

  • Released version: 5.5.0.0

[Fix] nShift Ship API v1: Download Shipping Agents Now Works

Section titled “[Fix] nShift Ship API v1: Download Shipping Agents Now Works”

Users of the nShift Ship Connector on API v1 can now successfully download their shipping agents using the “Get Dataset” function. Previously, attempting this would result in an error and no data would be retrieved.

What has been done:

  • Fixed the interface for API v1 to support downloading shipping agents
  • The “Get Dataset” function now correctly retrieves carriers and shipping agents for API v1 users
  • API v1 users no longer need to add shipping agents manually

Usability notes:

  • This fix applies specifically to nShift Ship users on API v1
  • Users can now use “Get Dataset” to automatically import shipping agents — just as API v2 users already could
  • No configuration changes are required — the fix is automatically applied with the update
  • Users on API v2 are unaffected by this change

[Update] Internal Code Quality Improvements (nShift Ship)

Section titled “[Update] Internal Code Quality Improvements (nShift Ship)”

A series of internal improvements have been made to the nShift Ship Connector to improve code structure and long-term maintainability. These changes do not affect day-to-day usage but lay the groundwork for future enhancements.

What has been done:

  • Refactored API v2 logic into dedicated, well-structured codeunits for shipments and services
  • Separated shipment submission, label reprinting, and service operations into focused modules
  • Cleaned up legacy enum types by moving them to an obsolete category ahead of future removal

Usability notes:

  • No visible changes to the user interface or existing workflows
  • Partners and developers extending the connector benefit from the cleaner, more modular architecture
  • Legacy components are being phased out and will be fully removed in a future release
  • nShift Ship users on API v1 should test the “Get Dataset” function after upgrading to confirm shipping agents can now be downloaded
  • No breaking changes have been introduced in this release
  • The update is compatible with all supported Business Central versions
