• FedEx rate requests are triggered from commercetools carts or orders, with ship-from, ship-to, package details, and service options mapped to FedEx APIs.
• Shipping methods and service levels are mapped to FedEx service codes, with optional rules for residential delivery, signature, Saturday delivery, and declared value.
• Shipment creation sends confirmed order, parcel, and address data to FedEx to generate shipments, labels, and shipment identifiers that are stored back on the order.
• Tracking numbers are persisted in commercetools and used to poll or ingest carrier events, mapping FedEx scan events to shipment states and customer-visible tracking links.
• Address data is validated and normalized against FedEx constraints, with errors routed back to commercetools order states and logged for support follow-up.
• Idempotency keys and reference IDs are used to prevent duplicate shipments, while retries and dead-letter handling capture timeouts and API failures.

Why choose scandiweb to handle Commercetools integration for you?
How do you connect commercetools to FedEx for live shipping rates at checkout?
We map commercetools shipping methods and address rules to FedEx Rating APIs, including service filters and packaging logic. Rates are returned in real time, so shoppers see accurate options by region and cart constraints.
Can a commercetools FedEx integration generate FedEx shipping labels and customs documents automatically?
Yes – we create shipments in FedEx and write label URLs, tracking numbers, and shipping metadata back to commercetools. For cross-border flows, we support paperless trade fields and required document generation based on your product data.
What tracking events does FedEx send back to commercetools, and how are delivery statuses kept in sync?
We ingest FedEx tracking scans and normalize them into commercetools order and shipment states your teams and customers can understand. This keeps support, returns, and “where is my order?” messaging aligned across channels.
Does the commercetools FedEx integration support multi-warehouse shipping, split shipments, and partial fulfillment?
Yes – we can route by inventory location, split orders into multiple parcels, and create separate FedEx shipments per fulfillment. Each package gets its own label and tracking, stored against the right commercetools delivery records.
