• Order and address data is read from Commercetools and mapped to GLS shipment fields, including recipient, parcel count, weight, and selected service level.
• Shipment creation calls are sent to GLS via API; returned label artifacts (ZPL/PDF) and tracking numbers are stored against the related order/shipment record.
• Carrier service options are mapped to Commercetools shipping methods and rates, with checkout selections passed through as shipment instructions.
• Tracking events are pulled or received and translated into normalized shipment statuses, then written back to Commercetools as custom fields or order updates.
• Idempotency keys and reference numbers are used to prevent duplicate shipments; failed requests are retried and logged with carrier error payloads.
• Return shipments can be generated through GLS endpoints and linked to the original order for RMA and customer service visibility.
