FedExShip Class

Properties   Methods   Events   Config Settings   Errors  

Allows you to generate a FedEx shipping label for any of FedEx domestic services complete with addresses and barcode, cancel a shipment or close out the FedEx Ground shipments.

Syntax

FedExShip

Remarks

Generating a shipping label can be done by calling either the GetPackageLabel or GetShipmentLabels method. You will have to specify the package information, FedEx service to be used for shipping this package, origin and destination information, and any other special services associated with the shipment (such as Saturday Pickup, Saturday Delivery, Hold At Locations, etc.).

This class also allows you to delete packages included in the daily shipping log that have not already been tendered to FedEx by calling the CancelShipment method. The TrackingNumber parameter that identifies the shipment must be specified in the request along with the FedExAccountNumber.

When shipping with FedEx Ground, you can close out your shipments and generate a FedEx Ground Close Manifest by calling CloseGroundShipments method.

To use this class, you must have a FedEx FedExAccountNumber. You should also have already obtained a ClientId and ClientSecret; uniquely assigned to your account by FedEx.

NOTE: FedEx requires that all applications that print shipping labels pass a series of certification tests prior to being placed in production. The full version of FedEx Integrator gives you access to a certification package that makes this process very easy. The certification package is available by request. It includes all test scenarios required by FedEx for FedEx Express and Ground (international and domestic), and Home Delivery. Through the application included in the certification package, you can generate all shipping labels for selected scenarios applicable to your shipping needs with a click of a button.

Remarks

Actual Base Charge applicable to this package.

For FedEx, this is normally specific to the PayorAccountNumber. It is used in the FedExShip and FedExShipIntl only. When this is used, please note that for MPS the FedEx server provides the rating information in two different ways for domestic and international shipments.

In MPS domestic shipments, the rating information is available on the package level. In this case, the properties that store the rating information: PackageBaseCharge, PackageNetCharge, PackageTotalSurcharges, and PackageTotalDiscount, indicate the rate for that particular package.

While in MPS international shipments, the rating information is available on shipment level only and it is returned in the last package response. That being said, please note that: for all packages with index=0 to PackageCount - 2, the properties that store the rating information will be set to 'N/A', and in the last package (at index=PackageCount - 1, these properties will contain the rate for the whole shipment.

For UPS, this is the "transportation charge - fuel surcharge" applicable to this package. Upon a successful response, this is returned in the server reply for each package included in the shipment if SubVersion is 1701 or greater.

This is not applicable to USPS.

For Canada Post, upon a successful response, this is returned in the server reply for the package requested.

The PackageIdx parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the PackageCount property.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

QString GetPackageCODAmount(int iPackageIdx);
int SetPackageCODAmount(int iPackageIdx, QString qsPackageCODAmount);

Default Value

""

Remarks

The COD monetary value for the package.

For FedEx, this is applicable and required for Ground shipments only. If the shipment is using COD special service (i.e., the ShipmentSpecialServices is set to the corresponding value of COD), then the COD amount should be specified on package level for all packages that are going to use COD. If this is set, then the package will be considered as using the COD service.

Since Ground packages do not travel together and may be delivered at different times, you should add the value for the individual packages to be collected. On MPS Ground shipments, a COD return label will be generated for each package that uses COD service (stored in PackageCODLabel).

On COD Express shipments, the COD amount should be specified on shipment level and the CODTotalAmount is required instead.

For UPS, if the PackageCODAmount is set to a value other than "0.00", it indicates that COD special service is requested for that package. The collection type should be specified in the request via the PackageCODType. COD special service is not valid for return service movements. Package level COD is available for shipment from US/PR to US/PR, CA to CA, and CA to US. COD service for shipment from CA to US is not allowed for PackageType Letter/Envelope. COD special service is available for shipper's with PickupType 'Daily Pickup' or 'Drop Shipping'. Delivery Confirmation (represented by PackageSignatureType) and COD cannot coexist on a single package.

This property is not applicable to USPS packages.

Format: Two explicit decimal positions (e.g. 100.00).

This is not applicable for Canada Post.

The PackageIdx parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the PackageCount property.

This property is not available at design time.

Data Type

String

PackageCODFile Property (FedExShip Class)

Filename and location to save the CODLabel of this package to.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* GetPackageCODFile(int iPackageIdx);

QString GetPackageCODFile(int iPackageIdx);
int SetPackageCODFile(int iPackageIdx, QString qsPackageCODFile);

Default Value

""

Remarks

Filename and location to save the PackageCODLabel of this package to. This is applicable for package(s) that use the COD service.

When the PackageCODFile is set to a valid path and filename, the contents of the PackageCODLabel are written to disk when either the GetPackageLabel or GetShipmentLabels method is called.

This filename should have the same extension defined by LabelImageType (for example, if LabelImageType is set to PDF, then PackageCODFile has to have .pdf extension).

If the filename exists, you can choose to overwrite it or not by setting the Overwrite config setting (which defaults to True).

This property is only applicable to FedEx shipments.

The PackageIdx parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the PackageCount property.

This property is not available at design time.

int dshippingsdk_fedexship_getpackagecodlabel(void* lpObj, int packageidx, char** lpPackageCODLabel, int* lenPackageCODLabel);
QByteArray GetPackageCODLabel(int iPackageIdx);

Default Value

""

Remarks

Image of the COD return label for this package retrieved by FedEx Server upon a successful COD ship request.

This is the decoded binary image file of the COD return label, stored in memory when either the GetPackageLabel or the GetShipmentLabels method is called. The kind of label data returned depends on the label formatting specified in your ship request via LabelImageType. If you requested a PNG label, the data returned will be a PNG file. If you requested a thermal label, it will be a thermal label image. If the PackageCODFile is set to a valid path and filename, the label is also saved to disk in a LabelImageType format.

Since MPS Ground packages do not travel together and may be delivered at different times, a PackageCODLabel return label will be generated for each package that uses COD service.

On MPS Express packages, only one COD label will be generated and this will be returned on the last package of the MPS.

This property is only applicable to FedEx.

The PackageIdx parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the PackageCount property.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

int SetPackageHeight(int iPackageIdx, int iPackageHeight);

Default Value

0

Remarks

The height of the package to be shipped.

For FedEx, the PackageHeight is optional, but recommended, if "Your Packaging" is used as PackagePackagingType. This is required if PackageLength and PackageWidth are provided in the request. It is also required if a FedEx Express heavyweight service is selected for the shipment.

For UPS, this is the width of the package used to determine dimensional weight and therefore is recommended for all shipments.

It is required for GB to GB, and Poland to Poland shipments, and for 'Pallete' packaging type. For UPS packaging types: the length, width and height are defaulted.

Length + 2*(Width+Height) must be less than or equal to 130 IN or 330 CM. When PackageWidth is provided in the request, then all other dimensions (PackageLength and PackageHeight) are to be set as well.

For USPS, this only applies to GetRates and is only required if the package is irregular and the PackagePackagingType property is set to ptNonRectangular. (In this case PackageWidth and PackageHeight must still be set). For parcels, PackageLength is the measurement of the longest dimension and PackageWidth and PackageHeight make up the other two dimensions. PackageGirth is the measurement around the thickest part of the package, perpendicular to the length.

Except for Parcel Post, no mailpiece may measure more than 108 inches in length and girth combined. Parcel Post pieces measuring over 108 inches, but not more than 130 inches in combined length and girth are mailable at the applicable oversized rate.

Note that the PackageLength, PackageWidth, and PackageHeight are required for Priority Mail packages when the PackageSize is set to psLarge.

Note also that this applies to Endicia shipping label requests.

For Canada Post, this field should be set to the Shortest dimension (3.1 digits e.g. 999.9 pattern).

The PackageIdx parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the PackageCount property.

This property is not available at design time.

For UPS, this is the width of the package used to determine dimensional weight and therefore is recommended for all shipments. Length must be the longest dimension of the container.

It is required for GB to GB, and Poland to Poland shipments, and for 'Pallete' packaging type. For UPS packaging types: the length, width and height are defaulted.

Length + 2*(Width+Height) must be less than or equal to 130 IN or 330 CM. When PackageWidth is provided in the request, then all other dimensions (PackageLength and PackageHeight) are to be set as well.

Valid values are 0 to 108 IN and 0 to 270 CM.

For USPS, this is only required if the package is irregular and the PackagePackagingType property is set to ptNonRectangular. (In this case PackageWidth and PackageHeight must still be set).

Note: For parcels, the PackageLength is the measurement of the longest dimension and PackageWidth and PackageHeight make up the other two dimensions. PackageGirth is the measurement around the thickest part of the package, perpendicular to the length.

Except for Parcel Post, no mailpiece may measure more than 108 inches in length and girth combined. Parcel Post pieces measuring over 108 inches, but not more than 130 inches in combined length and girth are mailable at the applicable oversized rate.

Note that the PackageLength, PackageWidth, and PackageHeight are required for Priority Mail packages when the PackageSize is set to psLarge.

Note also that this applies to Endicia shipping label requests.

For Canada Post, this field should be set to the longest dimension (3.1 digits e.g. 999.9 pattern).

The PackageIdx parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the PackageCount property.

This property is not available at design time.

For FedEx, this is normally specific to the PayorAccountNumber. It is used in the FedExShip and FedExShipIntl classs only.

When this is used, please note that for MPS the FedEx server provides the rating information in two different ways for domestic and international shipments.

In MPS domestic shipments, the rating information is available on package level. In this case, the properties that store the rating information: PackageBaseCharge, PackageNetCharge, PackageTotalSurcharges, and PackageTotalDiscount, indicate the rate for that particular package.

While in MPS international shipments, the rating information is available on shipment level only and it is returned in the last package response. That being said, please note that: for all packages with index=0 to PackageCount - 2, the properties that store the rating information will be set to 'N/A', and in last package (at index=PackageCount - 1, these properties will contain the rate for the whole shipment.

For UPS, upon a successful response to GetRates, this is returned in the server reply for each package included in the shipment.

For USPS, this specifies the postage required for mailing a package of the indicated size and weight. If this property is not supplied, it will be calculated and returned in the response.

This will also be set when an Endicia label is returned describing how much postage was charged from the Endicia account for the package.

For Canada Post, upon a successful response, this is returned in the server reply for the package requested.

The PackageIdx parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the PackageCount property.

For FedEx, this is required in a ship request when either the GetPackageLabel or GetShipmentLabels method is called. FedEx only supports one packaging type for the whole shipment, so only the PackagePackagingType for the first package is used in label requests.

If the PackagePackagingType is set to 31 (Your Packaging), then the dimensions of the package should be provided in the request by setting the following: PackageLength, PackageWidth, and PackageHeight.

If the ServiceType is set to any of the FedEx Ground services (Ground or Ground Home Delivery), then the PackagePackagingType will be automatically set to 31 (Your Packaging).

Please note that the types pt10kgBox (13) and pt25kgBox (14) are only meant for international shipments and domestic shipments outside of the United States.

For UPS, please note that when selecting PackagePackagingType make sure this is valid for all the following: SenderCountryCode, RecipientCountryCode, ServiceType, and all special services requested at both shipment and package level.

Remarks

Specifies one of the Delivery Signature Options requested for this package. Possible values are:

stServiceDefault (0) The default value for the requested service.
stAdult (1) Available for both residential and nonresidential deliveries.
stDirect (2) Available for both residential and nonresidential deliveries.
stIndirect (3) Available for residential deliveries only.
stNoSignatureRequired (4)Not available for Ground services.
stUSPSDeliveryConfirmation (5)Available for UPS Mail Innovations only.
stAdult19 (6)Available for Canada Post only.

For FedEx Express shipments, the NoSignatureRequired option will not be allowed when the following special services are requested: Alcohol, Hold At Location or Dangerous Goods.

For residential FedEx Ground International shipments from Canada to the U.S., two valid signature options are allowed: NoSignatureRequired and Direct.

The impact of signature options fees may vary depending on your agreement with FedEx. Following are the definitions for FedEx:

  • Service Default: In this case, the appropriate signature option will be selected for your shipping service. For example, if the package contains Dangerous Goods, the Direct signature option is chosen for you. The actual signature option applied to this package could be different than the signature option requested if a conflict occurred with other service features in the package. In this case, the value set in the request will be ignored.
  • Indirect Signature Required: Indicates that an indirect signature is required upon delivery. This is allowed to residential addresses only. In this case, FedEx obtains a signature in one of three ways: from any person at the delivery address, from a neighbor, building manager, or other person at a neighboring address. The recipient can sign a FedEx door tag authorizing release of the package without anyone present. This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability.
  • Direct Signature Required: Indicates that a direct signature is required upon delivery. In this case, FedEx obtains a signature from any person at the delivery address. If no one is at the address, FedEx will reattempt delivery; Direct Signature Required overrides any recipient release that may be on file for deliveries to nonresidential addresses. This option is not available for Hold at FedEx Location shipments. This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability.
  • Adult Signature Required: Indicates that the adult signature is required upon delivery. In this case, FedEx obtains a signature from any person at least 21 years old (government-issued photo identification required) at the delivery address. If no one is at the address, FedEx will reattempt delivery. Adult Signature Required overrides any recipient release that may be on file for deliveries to nonresidential addresses. This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability.

Note: In the server reply, this option may differ from that requested value due to other characteristics of the shipment.

For UPS, when delivery confirmation is requested for a package, the PackageSignatureType should be set to a value other than 0 (stServiceDefault). The availability of this special service depends on the ServiceType. The type stIndirect is not valid for UPS packages.

Also, when using UPS Mail Innovations, delivery confirmation can be requested by setting this to stUSPSDeliveryConfirmation.

Delivery Confirmation and COD cannot coexist on a single package. Also, Delivery Confirmation option cannot be combined with the Return Services option.

For USPS, if this is not set to stServiceDefault or stNoSignatureRequired, the Signature Confirmation service will be used. Also, for Express label shipments, set this to stNoSignatureRequired to waive the signature requirements.

This does not apply for Canada Post.

The PackageIdx parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the PackageCount property.

For FedEx, to request any of the special services offered for a particular package in a ship request, you must set the PackageSpecialServices of that package to a set of valid flags.

The meaning and limitations for each special service option are listed below for FedEx:

  • Appointment Delivery: Indicates that the appointment delivery special service is requested for this package. This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability.
  • Dangerous Goods: Indicates that this package contains dangerous goods. When the PackageSpecialServices contains this flag, then the PackageDangerousGoodsAccessible is required to be provided in the request as well. For FedEx Express services, these types of shipments are referred to as dangerous goods shipments. For FedEx Ground services, these types of shipments are referred to as hazardous materials (Hazmat) shipments. Hazmat shipments must be single package. FedEx Ground provides reliable delivery of hazardous materials in all U.S. states except Alaska and Hawaii. If you have not shipped hazardous materials with FedEx Ground before, contact your FedEx account executive first. FedEx needs to confirm that you have met government training requirements and can generate the documentation your shipments need. Additional information regarding hazardous materials shipping is provided at fedex.com/ us/services/options under the Hazardous Materials link. The Shipper's Hazardous Materials Certification report (OP-950), prints after a successful Ground close request. Please note that Hazmat shipments must be single package. If you create a multiple package (MPS) hazmat shipment, only one commodity prints on the OP-950. FedEx assesses a surcharge on each package containing dangerous goods/Hazmat materials. This might affect service availability as well.
  • Dry Ice: Indicates that this package contains dry ice. FedEx assesses a surcharge on each package containing dry ice. This might affect service availability as well.
  • Priority Alert: Indicates whether the priority alert special service is requested for this package. This is applicable to domestic shipments only. A per package surcharge is associated with Priority Alert. This is applicable for FedEx First Overnight and FedEx Priority Overnight. It can be associated with: Saturday Delivery, Hold Saturday, Hold at Location, Dangerous Goods, Dry Ice or Signature Service Option. Please note that Priority Alert requires a service contract. If you are interested in signing up for Priority Alert, contact your FedEx account executive.
  • Non Standard Container: Indicates whether this package type is a non standard container. This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability.
  • COD: Indicates that this is a COD package. This service will affect shipping rates and service availability. This is applicable for domestic FedEx Express and Ground services, except FedEx Home Delivery premium. When shipping COD via FedEx Ground, the PackageCODAmount and PackageCODType must also be provided in the request.

For UPS, to request any of the special services offered for a particular package in a rate or ship request, you must set the PackageSpecialServices of that package to a set of valid flags.

The meaning and limitations for each special service option are listed below:

  • Additional Handling: Indicates that additional handling special service is requested for this package. This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability.
  • Non Standard Container: Indicates whether this package type is to be considered a large package (a non standard container). Dimensions must be 130 to 165 inches: Length + (2 x Width) + (2 x Height). This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability.

Some other special services on package level, such as COD, Delivery Confirmation, Insured Value, are already implemented respectively through the PackageCODAmount and PackageCODType, PackageSignatureType, and PackageInsuredValue.

int SetPackageWeight(int iPackageIdx, QString qsPackageWeight);

Default Value

"0.0"

Remarks

Weight of this package.

For FedEx, this is required to be provided in the request. It requires one explicit decimal position in pounds or kilograms, depending on the value of the WeightUnit config, (i.e. N.N formatting).

For UPS, this is required to be provided in the request for each package contained in the shipment if PackagePackagingType is set to a value other than 0 (UPS Letter). For Ground shipments, if the actual weight is less than 150 pounds, then the billable weight is 150 pounds. Air and 3 Day Select shipments will not be subject to a minimum billable weight. Format: it requires one explicit decimal position in pounds or kilograms, depending on the value of the WeightUnit config, (i.e. N.N formatting).

Note that if the ServiceType stUPSSurePostLessThan1LB or stUPSFirstClassMail is used, or the ServiceType stUPSExpeditedMailInovations is used with the PackagePackagingType ptMachineables, ptIrregulars, or ptStandardFlat then the weight must be specified in ounces. The WeightUnit config will be set automatically to "OZS" if not set.

For USPS, this must be the weight in pounds and ounces of the package. Package weight cannot exceed 70 pounds. (First-Class Mail cannot exceed 13 ounces. Bound Printed Matter cannot exceed 15 pounds). On international shipments, weight limits vary by country.

The format must be in "N lbs N oz", or as an integer showing the number of ounces. For example, a package with weight 6 lbs, 8 oz can be specified as "6 lbs 8 oz" or as "104".

However, in USPS, if PostageProvider is set to ppEndicia, then the format must be one explicit decimal position in ounces (i.e. N.N formatting).

For Canada Post, the weight of the parcel should be specified in kilograms (e.g. 99.999).

The PackageIdx parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the PackageCount property.

This property is not available at design time.

int GetPackageWidth(int iPackageIdx);
int SetPackageWidth(int iPackageIdx, int iPackageWidth);

Default Value

0

Remarks

The width of the package to be shipped.

For FedEx, the PackageWidth is optional, but recommended, if "Your Packaging" is used as PackagePackagingType. This is required if PackageLength and PackageHeight are provided in the request. It is also required if a FedEx Express heavyweight service is selected for the shipment.

For UPS, this is the width of the package used to determine dimensional weight and therefore is recommended for all shipments.

It is required for GB to GB, and Poland to Poland shipments, and for 'Pallete' packaging type. For UPS packaging types: the length, width and height are defaulted.

Length + 2*(Width+Height) must be less than or equal to 130 IN or 330 CM. When PackageWidth is provided in the request, then all other dimensions (PackageLength and PackageHeight) are to be set as well.

For USPS, this is only required if the package is irregular and the PackagePackagingType property is set to ptNonRectangular. (In this case PackageWidth and PackageHeight must still be set).

Note: For parcels, PackageLength is the measurement of the longest dimension and PackageWidth and PackageHeight make up the other two dimensions. PackageGirth is the measurement around the thickest part of the package, perpendicular to the length.

Except for Parcel Post, no mailpiece may measure more than 108 inches in length and girth combined. Parcel Post pieces measuring over 108 inches, but not more than 130 inches in combined length and girth are mailable at the applicable oversized rate.

Note that the PackageLength, PackageWidth, and PackageHeight are required for Priority Mail packages when the PackageSize is set to psLarge.

Note also that this applies to Endicia shipping label requests.

For Canada Post, this field should be set to the second longest dimension (3.1 digits e.g. 999.9 pattern).

The PackageIdx parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the PackageCount property.

This property is not available at design time.

The meaning and limitations for each special service option are listed below:

  • COD: Indicates that this is a COD shipment. This service will affect shipping rates and service availability. This is applicable for domestic FedEx Express and Ground services, except FedEx Home Delivery Premium. When shipping COD via FedEx Ground, the COD details must be provided on the Package level.
  • Dry Ice: Indicates that the shipment contains dry ice. This might affect the shipping rates and service availability. When this service is requested (i.e., when the corresponding Dry Ice flag is contained in the ShipmentSpecialServices), then the DryIceCount and PackageDryIceWeight are required to be specified in the request (shipment level). This is allowed for FedEx Express shipments only.
  • Event Notification: Indicates that event notification is requested. This might affect the service availability. If this is requested in a ship request, then the Notify collection is required to be set.
  • Hold At Location: This is applicable for FedEx Express services only. Indicates that the FedEx shipment is to be held at the destination FedEx location for pickup by the recipient. The request of this special service might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability. This service is not valid with the Hold Saturday service, and when the RecipientAddressFlags is set to Residential (i.e., for residential delivery). When this service is requested (i.e., when the corresponding Hold At Location flag is contained in the ShipmentSpecialServices), then the HoldAtLocation is required to be provided in the request as well.
  • Home Delivery: Indicates that the Home Delivery Premium special service is requested. This is applicable for residential delivery only (i.e., when this is present in the request, the RecipientAddressFlags is automatically set to Residential in the request). If ServiceType is set to GROUND HOME DELIVERY, the corresponding flag of Home Delivery is automatically added to the ShipmentSpecialServices. In this case, the HomeDeliveryDate, HomeDeliveryPhone, and HomeDeliveryType properties are required to be provided in the request as well. This property is applicable for FedEx Ground services only.
  • Inside Delivery: Indicates that inside delivery service is requested. In this case, FedEx may move shipments to positions beyond the adjacent loading area. In doing so, FedEx will assess an inside delivery charge in addition to all other applicable charges. The adjacent loading area is defined as a delivery site that is directly accessible from the curb and is no more than 50 feet inside the outermost door. FedEx will assess an inside delivery charge when shipment breakdown is necessary to fit a shipment through a doorway. FedEx does not provide piece count or piece verification when a breakdown of a freight shipment occurs at the delivery site. Current FedEx surcharge for this option: US$0.0412 per lb./$0.0908 per kg (US$60 minimum).
  • Inside Pickup: Indicates that inside pickup service is requested. In this case, FedEx may move shipments from positions beyond the adjacent loading area. In doing so, FedEx will assess an inside pickup charge in addition to all other applicable charges. The adjacent loading area is defined as a pickup site that is directly accessible from the curb and is no more than 50 feet inside the outermost door. Current FedEx surcharge for this option: US$0.0412 per lb./$0.0908 per kg (US$60 minimum).
  • Pending Shipment Indicates that an email label has been requested. When this option is selected, you will need to also set the Notify property to specify the email address to send to and the message to be sent. You will also need to set the MerchantPhoneNumber and EmailLabelExpirationDate configuration settings. When this option is selected a label will not be saved to the location in PackageShippingLabelFile, as the label will now be emailed to the recipient(s) specified in NotifyEmail
  • Return Shipment: Indicates that the return label is requested. This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability. In this case, the RMANumber and RMAReason can be provided in the request. When this option is selected, the return label will be returned in the server response. The recipient can then apply this return label to the return package as needed and drop the package off at a FedEx drop off location. No charges are assessed until the label is used. Express and Ground return labels are interchangeable, regardless of the original shipping service. For example, you can send the original shipment using an express service, but include a Ground return label as part of your packing documents. Express/Ground Return Labels are available for FedEx First Overnight, FedEx Priority Overnight, FedEx Standard Overnight, FedEx 2Day, FedEx Ground, FedEx Home Delivery, FedEx 2Day Freight, and FedEx 3Day Freight throughout the 50 United States. FedEx Express Saver and FedEx 1Day Freight services are not available. Also, Dangerous Goods and Hazardous Materials cannot be shipped. Additional service options include Saturday Service, Dry Ice Shipments, and Hold at FedEx Location. The maximum declared value is $1,000 for FedEx First Overnight, FedEx Priority Overnight, FedEx Standard Overnight, and FedEx 2Day. The maximum declared value is $50,000 for FedEx 2Day Freight and FedEx 3Day Freight. The maximum declared value is $100 for FedEx Ground and FedEx Home Delivery.
  • Saturday Delivery: Indicates that you request to have the shipment delivered on a Saturday. Saturday delivery service is available for an additional charge depending on the package service type and origin/destination pair. This service is available for: FedEx Priority Overnight, FedEx 2day, FedEx International Priority, FedEx 1Day Freight, and FedEx 2Day Freight. The rates and service availability depend on the ship date specified in the request. If the ship date falls on Thursday or Friday and you want Saturday delivery, the ground option and some express option will not be valid.
  • Saturday Pickup: Indicates that you request to have the shipment picked up on a Saturday. Saturday pickup service is available for an additional charge depending on the package service type and origin/destination pair. This service is available for: FedEx Priority Overnight, FedEx 2day, FedEx International Priority, FedEx 1Day Freight, and FedEx 2Day Freight. The rates and service availability depend on the ship date specified in the request. If the ship date falls on week day other than Saturday and you want Saturday pickup, the ground option and some express option will not be valid.
  • ThirdParty Consignee: Indicates that the third party special service is requested. This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability.
  • Electronic Trade Documents: This only applies when shipping internationally. FedEx will generate and submit your trade documents specified in the ShippingDocumentTypes electronically and you no longer need to print and attach them. Note that some countries do not accept Electronic Trade Documents (ETD). For a full list of countries that support ETD you can go to http://images.fedex.com/international/pdf/FedExElectronicTradeDocuments_Coverage.pdf.

    If you also want to receive copies of the FedEx generated documents use the RequestedETDDocuments property together with the ShippingDocumentFile config to specify the files you are requesting and the location where to save them.

  • Broker Select: Indicates that the broker select special service is requested. When shipping internationally, the customer might want to have their own broker to deal with the delivery (for customs purposes). To request such service, the BrokerSelect option should be set in the ShipmentSpecialServices value. This allows you to designate a specific customs broker other than FedEx (or a FedEx designated broker). This is applicable to the following international FedEx services:
    • stFedExInternationalPriority (20)
    • stFedExInternationalEconomy (21)
    • stFedExInternationalPriorityFreight (23)
    • stFedExInternationalEconomyFreight (24)
    • stFedExInternationalPriorityExpress (32)
    • stFedExInternationalConnectPlus (33)
    FedEx International Broker Select is a contract service. Before you begin using FedEx International Broker Select (BSO), you must contact your FedEx account executive to be enrolled for this service. An additional routing surcharge applies to your BSO shipments if you choose to have FedEx complete delivery after customs clearance and if your recipient and customs broker are served by different FedEx clearance points. This service is not valid with SaturdayPickup/SaturdayDelivery services.

int SetSSLCertStoreType(int iSSLCertStoreType);

Default Value

0

Remarks

This is the type of certificate store for this certificate.

The class supports both public and private keys in a variety of formats. When the cstAuto value is used, the class will automatically determine the type. This property can take one of the following values:

0 (cstUser - default)For Windows, this specifies that the certificate store is a certificate store owned by the current user.

Note: This store type is not available in Java.

1 (cstMachine)For Windows, this specifies that the certificate store is a machine store.

Note: This store type is not available in Java.

2 (cstPFXFile)The certificate store is the name of a PFX (PKCS#12) file containing certificates.
3 (cstPFXBlob)The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in PFX (PKCS#12) format.
4 (cstJKSFile)The certificate store is the name of a Java Key Store (JKS) file containing certificates.

Note: This store type is only available in Java.

5 (cstJKSBlob)The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in Java Key Store (JKS) format.

Note: this store type is only available in Java.

6 (cstPEMKeyFile)The certificate store is the name of a PEM-encoded file that contains a private key and an optional certificate.
7 (cstPEMKeyBlob)The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) that contains a private key and an optional certificate.
8 (cstPublicKeyFile)The certificate store is the name of a file that contains a PEM- or DER-encoded public key certificate.
9 (cstPublicKeyBlob)The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) that contains a PEM- or DER-encoded public key certificate.
10 (cstSSHPublicKeyBlob)The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) that contains an SSH-style public key.
11 (cstP7BFile)The certificate store is the name of a PKCS#7 file containing certificates.
12 (cstP7BBlob)The certificate store is a string (binary) representing a certificate store in PKCS#7 format.
13 (cstSSHPublicKeyFile)The certificate store is the name of a file that contains an SSH-style public key.
14 (cstPPKFile)The certificate store is the name of a file that contains a PPK (PuTTY Private Key).
15 (cstPPKBlob)The certificate store is a string (binary) that contains a PPK (PuTTY Private Key).
16 (cstXMLFile)The certificate store is the name of a file that contains a certificate in XML format.

Note: This store type is only available in Java and .NET.

22 (cstBCFKSBlob)The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in BCFKS (Bouncy Castle FIPS Key Store) format.

Note: This store type is only available in Java and .NET.

23 (cstPKCS11)The certificate is present on a physical security key accessible via a PKCS#11 interface.

To use a security key, the necessary data must first be collected using the CertMgr class. The ListStoreCertificates method may be called after setting CertStoreType to cstPKCS11, CertStorePassword to the PIN, and CertStore to the full path of the PKCS#11 DLL. The certificate information returned in the CertList event's CertEncoded parameter may be saved for later use.

When using a certificate, pass the previously saved security key information as the SSLCertStore and set SSLCertStorePassword to the PIN.

Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key: certmgr.CertStoreType = CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11; certmgr.OnCertList += (s, e) => { secKeyBlob = e.CertEncoded; }; certmgr.CertStore = @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll"; certmgr.CertStorePassword = "123456"; //PIN certmgr.ListStoreCertificates(); sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, secKeyBlob, "123456", "*"); sftp.SSHUser = "test"; sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);

99 (cstAuto)The store type is automatically detected from the input data. This setting may be used with both public and private keys and can detect any of the supported formats automatically.

Data Type

QString GetSSLCertSubject();
int SetSSLCertSubject(QString qsSSLCertSubject);

Default Value

""

Remarks

This is the subject of the certificate used for client authentication.

This property must be set after all other certificate properties are set. When this property is set, a search is performed in the current certificate store to locate a certificate with a matching subject.

If a matching certificate is found, the property is set to the full subject of the matching certificate.

If an exact match is not found, the store is searched for subjects containing the value of the property.

If a match is still not found, the property is set to an empty string, and no certificate is selected.

The special value "*" picks a random certificate in the certificate store.

The certificate subject is a comma-separated list of distinguished name fields and values. For instance, "CN=www.server.com, OU=test, C=US, E=support@nsoftware.com". Common fields and their meanings are as follows:

FieldMeaning
CNCommon Name. This is commonly a hostname like www.server.com.
OOrganization
OUOrganizational Unit
LLocality
SState
CCountry
EEmail Address

If a field value contains a comma, it must be quoted.

Data Type

int dshippingsdk_fedexship_getsslprovider(void* lpObj);
int dshippingsdk_fedexship_setsslprovider(void* lpObj, int iSSLProvider);
int GetSSLProvider();
int SetSSLProvider(int iSSLProvider);

Default Value

0

Remarks

This property specifies the SSL/TLS implementation to use. In most cases the default value of 0 (Automatic) is recommended and should not be changed. When set to 0 (Automatic) the class will select whether to use the platform implementation or the internal implementation depending on the operating system as well as the TLS version being used.

Possible values are:

0 (sslpAutomatic - default)Automatically selects the appropriate implementation.
1 (sslpPlatform) Uses the platform/system implementation.
2 (sslpInternal) Uses the internal implementation.
Additional Notes

In most cases using the default value (Automatic) is recommended. The class will select a provider depending on the current platform.

When Automatic is selected, on Windows the class will use the platform implementation. On Linux/macOS the class will use the internal implementation. When TLS 1.3 is enabled via SSLEnabledProtocols the internal implementation is used on all platforms.

Data Type

Integer

SSLServerCertEncoded Property (FedExShip Class)

This is the certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded).

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetSSLServerCertEncoded(char* &lpSSLServerCertEncoded, int &lenSSLServerCertEncoded);

Unicode (Windows)
INT GetSSLServerCertEncoded(LPSTR &lpSSLServerCertEncoded, INT &lenSSLServerCertEncoded);
int dshippingsdk_fedexship_getsslservercertencoded(void* lpObj, char** lpSSLServerCertEncoded, int* lenSSLServerCertEncoded);
QByteArray GetSSLServerCertEncoded();

Default Value

""

Remarks

This is the certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded). This property is used to assign a specific certificate. The SSLServerCertStore and SSLServerCertSubject properties also may be used to specify a certificate.

When SSLServerCertEncoded is set, a search is initiated in the current SSLServerCertStore for the private key of the certificate. If the key is found, SSLServerCertSubject is updated to reflect the full subject of the selected certificate; otherwise, SSLServerCertSubject is set to an empty string.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

Binary String

Timeout Property (FedExShip Class)

A timeout for the class.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetTimeout();
int SetTimeout(int iTimeout); Unicode (Windows) INT GetTimeout();
INT SetTimeout(INT iTimeout);
int dshippingsdk_fedexship_gettimeout(void* lpObj);
int dshippingsdk_fedexship_settimeout(void* lpObj, int iTimeout);
int GetTimeout();
int SetTimeout(int iTimeout);

Default Value

60

Remarks

If the Timeout property is set to 0, all operations will run uninterrupted until successful completion or an error condition is encountered.

If Timeout is set to a positive value, the class will wait for the operation to complete before returning control.

The class will use DoEvents to enter an efficient wait loop during any potential waiting period, making sure that all system events are processed immediately as they arrive. This ensures that the host application does not "freeze" and remains responsive.

If Timeout expires, and the operation is not yet complete, the class fails with an error.

Please note that by default, all timeouts are inactivity timeouts, i.e. the timeout period is extended by Timeout seconds when any amount of data is successfully sent or received.

The default value for the Timeout property is 60 seconds.

Data Type

Integer

TotalNetCharge Property (FedExShip Class)

The total net charge applied to the whole shipment (specific to the AccountNumber ).

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)

Unicode (Windows)
INT CancelPackage(LPCWSTR lpszTrackingNumber);
int dshippingsdk_fedexship_cancelpackage(void* lpObj, const char* lpszTrackingNumber);
int CancelPackage(const QString& qsTrackingNumber);

Remarks

Cancels FedEx Express and Ground package that have not already been tendered to FedEx.

The TrackingNumber parameter, that identifies the package to be canceled and deleted from the shipping log, is the PackageTrackingNumber assigned to the package by FedEx server when either the GetPackageLabel or the GetShipmentLabels method was called.

The following properties can be set prior to calling this method:

To check the status of your cancel request the CancelledShipment config should be inspected.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

CancelPickup Method (FedExShip Class)

Cancels a scheduled Carrier Pickup request.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* CancelPickup(const char* lpszConfirmationNumber);

Unicode (Windows)
LPWSTR CancelPickup(LPCWSTR lpszConfirmationNumber);
char* dshippingsdk_fedexship_cancelpickup(void* lpObj, const char* lpszConfirmationNumber);
QString CancelPickup(const QString& qsConfirmationNumber);

Remarks

When the CancelPickup method is called, the exact data from the original SchedulePickup request must be entered.

You must enter the following information:

Valid CarrierType values are FDXG (FedEx Ground) or FDXE (FedEx Express).

If the information entered is valid (matches the existing record and is within the time frames available for cancellation), this method will return with no error. The return value for this method is a string containing a message from FedEx about the request to cancel the pickup, if one exists.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a String value; after it returns, call the GetLastErrorCode() method to obtain its result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message.

CancelShipment Method (FedExShip Class)

Cancels all packages within the shipment.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int CancelShipment(const char* lpszTrackingNumber);

Unicode (Windows)
INT CancelShipment(LPCWSTR lpszTrackingNumber);
int dshippingsdk_fedexship_cancelshipment(void* lpObj, const char* lpszTrackingNumber);
int CancelShipment(const QString& qsTrackingNumber);

Remarks

Cancels FedEx Express and Ground shipments that have not already been tendered to FedEx.

The TrackingNumber parameter, that identifies the shipment to be canceled and deleted from the shipping log, is assigned by FedEx server when either the GetPackageLabel or GetShipmentLabels method was called.

The following properties can be set prior to calling this method:

To check the status of your cancel request the CancelledShipment config should be inspected.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

CloseGroundShipments Method (FedExShip Class)

Closes out all FedEx Ground shipments made for the day or generates reports for the last 3 days' close requests.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int CloseGroundShipments();

Unicode (Windows)
INT CloseGroundShipments();
int dshippingsdk_fedexship_closegroundshipments(void* lpObj);
int CloseGroundShipments();

Remarks

Closing is a function to be used for FedEx Ground shipments only. Express shipments are automatically closed and do not require you to perform a specific close operation. The Close service allows you to reconcile shipping information for your Ground shipments and print a Ground Manifest for your Ground driver.

At the end of the shipping day, you should perform the FedEx Ground End of Day Close procedure. To do so, call the CloseGroundShipments method. The Ground manifest (Manifest stored in CloseReportFile) is generated after a successful close and must be printed before your Ground shipments are tendered to FedEx. This is required to be tendered to FedEx along with your packages if they are being picked up by FedEx Ground. If you are dropping the packages off at a FedEx drop-off location, the manifest is not required.

You may continue to ship Ground packages after a Close has been performed. The Close service may be performed multiple times during your shipping day. Use the Close service to initiate the final stage of processing all shipment data submitted for the day (close of business).

A customer cannot cancel any shipments once they are closed out. However, shipments can be added to a day's shipment after a close operation has been performed and multiple closes can be performed in a day.

When this method is called, the following properties must have been set:

CloseReportType specifies the type of report. Only one type of report can be returned per Close request. If you need multiple report types you will have to issue multiple CloseGroundShipments requests.

The report will automatically be written to the file specified by CloseReportFile. These reports can be printed anytime during the shipping day for shipments that have already been closed (up to three days in the past).

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

Config Method (FedExShip Class)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* Config(const char* lpszConfigurationString);

Unicode (Windows)
LPWSTR Config(LPCWSTR lpszConfigurationString);
char* dshippingsdk_fedexship_config(void* lpObj, const char* lpszConfigurationString);
QString Config(const QString& qsConfigurationString);

Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the class.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a String value; after it returns, call the GetLastErrorCode() method to obtain its result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message.

GetPackageLabel Method (FedExShip Class)

Generates a shipping label for the specified package.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetPackageLabel(int iIndex);

Unicode (Windows)
INT GetPackageLabel(INT iIndex);
int dshippingsdk_fedexship_getpackagelabel(void* lpObj, int iIndex);
int GetPackageLabel(int iIndex);

Remarks

When this method is called, the following properties must have been set:

When shipping via FedEx Ground then the PackageType should be set to ptYourPackaging.

This method fills in the following properties:

To print out the PackageShippingLabel, you can save it to the PackageShippingLabelFile file in LabelImageType format.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

GetShipmentLabels Method (FedExShip Class)

Generates a shipping label for all packages in the shipment.

Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireError(FedExShipErrorEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
INT ErrorCode;
LPCWSTR Description; INT reserved; } FedExShipErrorEventParams;
#define EID_FEDEXSHIP_ERROR 1

virtual INT DSHIPPINGSDK_CALL FireError(INT &iErrorCode, LPSTR &lpszDescription);
class FedExShipErrorEventParams {
public:
  int ErrorCode();

  const QString &Description();

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void Error(FedExShipErrorEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass FedExShip and override this emitter function. virtual int FireError(FedExShipErrorEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

The Error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing.

virtual int FireSSLServerAuthentication(FedExShipSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
const char *CertEncoded; int lenCertEncoded;
const char *CertSubject;
const char *CertIssuer;
const char *Status;
int Accept; int reserved; } FedExShipSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams;
Unicode (Windows) virtual INT FireSSLServerAuthentication(FedExShipSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams *e);
typedef struct {
LPCSTR CertEncoded; INT lenCertEncoded;
LPCWSTR CertSubject;
LPCWSTR CertIssuer;
LPCWSTR Status;
BOOL Accept; INT reserved; } FedExShipSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams;
#define EID_FEDEXSHIP_SSLSERVERAUTHENTICATION 3

virtual INT DSHIPPINGSDK_CALL FireSSLServerAuthentication(LPSTR &lpCertEncoded, INT &lenCertEncoded, LPSTR &lpszCertSubject, LPSTR &lpszCertIssuer, LPSTR &lpszStatus, BOOL &bAccept);

// Or, subclass FedExShip and override this emitter function. virtual int FireSSLServerAuthentication(FedExShipSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

During this event, the client can decide whether or not to continue with the connection process. The Accept parameter is a recommendation on whether to continue or close the connection. This is just a suggestion: application software must use its own logic to determine whether or not to continue.

When Accept is False, Status shows why the verification failed (otherwise, Status contains the string OK). If it is decided to continue, you can override and accept the certificate by setting the Accept parameter to True.

SSLStatus Event (FedExShip Class)

Fired when secure connection progress messages are available.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireSSLStatus(FedExShipSSLStatusEventParams *e);
typedef struct {

Overwrite:   Determines whether label files will be overwritten.

If True (default value) the label files are overwritten. Otherwise, an error is returned if the file exist.

PackageAlcoholRecipientType[i]:   The type of recipient for an Alcohol Special Service package.

When setting a package's Special Service to Alcohol (0x00000100), this configuration setting should be used to specify the type of recipient for that package.

The applicable values are:

0Consumer (Default)
1Licensee

Valid array indices are from 0 to Packages.Count - 1.

PackageCount:   The number of packages to be picked up.

If set this will be used to specify the number of packages to be picked up during a SchedulePickup request.

PackageDocumentFile:   The file path for the additional package documents.

When package documents are received from FedEx, they will be put in the filepath specified in the following format:

<Base Filename>_<Document Type><Document Number>.<extension>

So if the path "C:\packageDoc.png" is specified and you receive an auxiliary label, the file "C:\packageDoc_AUXILIARY_LABEL1.png" will be created.

PackageDryIceWeight[i]:   The weight of the dry ice for each package.

This is required to be provided in a ship request when shipping Dry Ice (i.e., when the corresponding flag for DryIce is present (requested) in the ShipmentSpecialServices). Dry ice shipping is allowed for FedEx Express services only (U.S. domestic, intra-Canadian, and FedEx Express International shipments). FedEx assesses a surcharge on each package containing dry ice. Dry ice weight cannot be greater than the package weight. The dry ice weight type is KGS only. There is a limit of 2.5 KG dry ice for destination.

NOTE: The weight will always be specified in KG.

PackageRatingAggregate[i]:   String representing the rating detail on package level (at index i).

Valid array indices are from 0 to Packages.Count - 1. This setting is read-only.

PayorPhone:   Payor's phone number.

This setting represents the PhoneNumber of the Payor when using the following PayorType values:

  • ptCollect
  • ptConsignee
  • ptThirdParty

Note: If the PayorType is ptSender or ptRecipient, the component will use SenderContact.Phone or RecipientContact.Phone, respectively.

RawRequest:   Contains the complete request sent to the Server.

This returns the complete request as sent to the server. Used for debugging purposes.

RawResponse:   Contains the complete response returned by the Server.

This returns the complete response as received from the server. Used for debugging purposes.

RMANumber:   The RMA number.

The RMA number associated with the return shipment. This is an alpha-numeric value up to 20 characters in length.

RMAReason:   The RMA reason description.

This is optional to be provided when the ReturnShipment special service is requested and applicable only if the RMANumber was provided. This element allows you to enter up to 60 alpha-numeric characters.

ShipmentRatingAggregate:   String representing the rating detail on shipment level.

Upon a successful ship request, the shipment rating is returned in the server response only if the PayorType is set to 0 (SENDER). This will be stored as a string in the ShipmentRatingAggregate, formatted as XML. This setting is read-only.

ShipTime:   Local Time of shipment based on shipper's time zone.

This config is used in combination with ShipDate property. Together, these identify the date and time the package is tendered to FedEx. This is optional to be entered in the ship request. If not provided, defaults to the current U.S. Central Standard Time. Format: HH:MM:SS using a 24 hour clock (e.g. 11:00 a.m. is 11:00:00, whereas 5:00 p.m. is 17:00:00).

SizeUnit:   The dimension unit.

Declares the type of size units to be used in calculating the size of the shipment and each package contained in it. This is required if package dimensions are passed in the request.

Valid dimension unit of measure codes: IN and CM. Defaults to IN if a value is not passed in the transaction.

SmartPostAncillaryEndorsement:   The endorsement type used for a FedEx SmartPost shipment.

Set this config to specify the endorsement type used for a FedEx SmartPost shipment. This is optional when using FedEx SmartPost service.

The applicable values include the following:

0None (default setting)
1Address Correction
2Carrier Leave If No Response
3Change Service
4Forwarding Service
5Return Service

SmartPostCustomerManifestId:   The Customer Manifest Id used to group FedEx SmartPost packages.

Set this config to specify the Customer Manifest Id which is used to group FedEx SmartPost packages onto a manifest for each trailer that is being prepared. You must assign a unique Manifest Id to each FedEx SmartPost package, when you have multiple trailers. If you have a single trailer, then this config is optional. The Manifest Id must be unique to your account number for a minimum of six months and cannot exceed eight characters in length.

SmartPostHubId:   The HubId used to send FedEx SmartPost shipments.

When you want to ship packages via FedEx SmartPost, you will have to specify the SmartPostHubId. By setting this, the server will consider your shipment as a SmartPost one. ServiceType will automatically be set to the correct value when this is specified.

SmartPost cannot be enabled via Web Support. You will need to contact your local Account Executive to enable SmartPost for your account. Depending on the zip code associated with your account, they can also provide you with the correct Hub Id for production. This config should only be set using the numeric Hub Id value. For example, to set the Hub Id for Charlotte area: ship.Config("SmartPostHubId=5281"). In regards to test, you should be able to test your transactions by supplying a dummy Hub Id of 5531.

Note: SmartPost ships via FedEx using FedEx Ground. The only available packaging type for Ground is 'Your Packaging', so SmartPost can only use this as packaging type, and the package dimensions are required to be entered in the request as well. The package weight limitations depend on the value of SmartPostIndicia which is also required to be provided in the request.

SmartPostIndicia:   The Indicia type used for a FedEx SmartPost shipment.

Set this config to specify the Indicia type used for a FedEx SmartPost shipment. This is required when using FedEx SmartPost service.

The applicable values include the following:

3Presorted Standard - to be used for general packages up to 1 lb
4Parcel Return

SmartPostTrackingNumbers:   Contains the tracking numbers for a FedEx SmartPost shipment.

This config contains all the available tracking numbers for a FedEx SmartPost shipment. This will return the tracking numbers as a comma separated string in the form: [TrackingIdType]=[TrackingNumber]

An example of a possible value is: USPS=12345,GROUND=67890

SpecialInstructions:   Special instructions for the courier.

Set this when calling SchedulePickup to add any additional remarks that the courier may need when picking up the packages. This is required when canceling a pickup with FedEx Ground.

TESTMODE:   This configuration setting will allow you to run test transactions.

When setting this configuration setting to True the transactions will be directed to the default testing end-point. component.Config("TESTMODE=true");

Default value is False, transactions are directed to the default production end-point.

UseAccountAddress:   Whether or not the pickup should be sent to the address associated with the account.

Set this to true to tell FedEx to use the address associated with the sender account to pickup the packages when calling SchedulePickup. By default, this value is false, and the address for pickup will be specified by the SenderAddress.

Warning:   Warning message returned by the server.

This might be returned by the server even upon successful response. These warnings are usually informational.

WeightUnit:   Weight unit.

This is required when submitting a rate or ship request. It declares the type of weight unit to be used in calculating the weight of the shipment and each package contained in it.

Valid weight types: LB and KG. Defaults to LB if a value is not passed in the transaction. It must be LB for a U.S. Domestic rate quote or ship request.

HTTP Config Settings

AcceptEncoding:   Used to tell the server which types of content encodings the client supports.

When AllowHTTPCompression is True, the class adds an Accept-Encoding header to the request being sent to the server. By default, this header's value is "gzip, deflate". This configuration setting allows you to change the value of the Accept-Encoding header. Note: The class only supports gzip and deflate decompression algorithms.

AllowHTTPCompression:   This property enables HTTP compression for receiving data.

This configuration setting enables HTTP compression for receiving data. When set to True (default), the class will accept compressed data. It then will uncompress the data it has received. The class will handle data compressed by both gzip and deflate compression algorithms.

When True, the class adds an Accept-Encoding header to the outgoing request. The value for this header can be controlled by the AcceptEncoding configuration setting. The default value for this header is "gzip, deflate".

The default value is True.

AllowHTTPFallback:   Whether HTTP/2 connections are permitted to fallback to HTTP/1.1.

This configuration setting controls whether HTTP/2 connections are permitted to fall back to HTTP/1.1 when the server does not support HTTP/2. This setting is applicable only when HTTPVersion is set to "2.0".

If set to True (default), the class will automatically use HTTP/1.1 if the server does not support HTTP/2. If set to False, the class fails with an error if the server does not support HTTP/2.

The default value is True.

Append:   Whether to append data to LocalFile.

This configuration setting determines whether data will be appended when writing to LocalFile. When set to True, downloaded data will be appended to LocalFile. This may be used in conjunction with Range to resume a failed download. This is applicable only when LocalFile is set. The default value is False.

Authorization:   The Authorization string to be sent to the server.

If the Authorization property contains a nonempty string, an Authorization HTTP request header is added to the request. This header conveys Authorization information to the server.

This property is provided so that the HTTP class can be extended with other security schemes in addition to the authorization schemes already implemented by the class.

The AuthScheme property defines the authentication scheme used. In the case of HTTP Basic Authentication (default), every time User and Password are set, they are Base64 encoded, and the result is put in the Authorization property in the form "Basic [encoded-user-password]".

BytesTransferred:   Contains the number of bytes transferred in the response data.

This configuration setting returns the raw number of bytes from the HTTP response data, before the component processes the data, whether it is chunked or compressed. This returns the same value as the Transfer event, by BytesTransferred.

ChunkSize:   Specifies the chunk size in bytes when using chunked encoding.

This is applicable only when UseChunkedEncoding is True. This setting specifies the chunk size in bytes to be used when posting data. The default value is 16384.

CompressHTTPRequest:   Set to true to compress the body of a PUT or POST request.

If set to True, the body of a PUT or POST request will be compressed into gzip format before sending the request. The "Content-Encoding" header is also added to the outgoing request.

The default value is False.

EncodeURL:   If set to True the URL will be encoded by the class.

If set to True, the URL passed to the class will be URL encoded. The default value is False.

FollowRedirects:   Determines what happens when the server issues a redirect.

This option determines what happens when the server issues a redirect. Normally, the class returns an error if the server responds with an "Object Moved" message. If this property is set to 1 (always), the new URL for the object is retrieved automatically every time.

If this property is set to 2 (Same Scheme), the new URL is retrieved automatically only if the URL Scheme is the same; otherwise, the class fails with an error.

Note: Following the HTTP specification, unless this option is set to 1 (Always), automatic redirects will be performed only for GET or HEAD requests. Other methods potentially could change the conditions of the initial request and create security vulnerabilities.

Furthermore, if either the new URL server or port are different from the existing one, User and Password are also reset to empty, unless this property is set to 1 (Always), in which case the same credentials are used to connect to the new server.

A Redirect event is fired for every URL the product is redirected to. In the case of automatic redirections, the Redirect event is a good place to set properties related to the new connection (e.g., new authentication parameters).

The default value is 0 (Never). In this case, redirects are never followed, and the class fails with an error instead.

Following are the valid options:

  • 0 - Never
  • 1 - Always
  • 2 - Same Scheme

GetOn302Redirect:   If set to True the class will perform a GET on the new location.

The default value is False. If set to True, the class will perform a GET on the new location. Otherwise, it will use the same HTTP method again.

HTTP2HeadersWithoutIndexing:   HTTP2 headers that should not update the dynamic header table with incremental indexing.

HTTP/2 servers maintain a dynamic table of headers and values seen over the course of a connection. Typically, these headers are inserted into the table through incremental indexing (also known as HPACK, defined in RFC 7541). To tell the component not to use incremental indexing for certain headers, and thus not update the dynamic table, set this configuration option to a comma-delimited list of the header names.

HTTPVersion:   The version of HTTP used by the class.

This property specifies the HTTP version used by the class. Possible values are as follows:

  • "1.0"
  • "1.1" (default)
  • "2.0"
  • "3.0"

When using HTTP/2 ("2.0"), additional restrictions apply. Please see the following notes for details.

HTTP/2 Notes

When using HTTP/2, a secure Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (TLS/SSL) connection is required. Attempting to use a plaintext URL with HTTP/2 will result in an error.

If the server does not support HTTP/2, the class will automatically use HTTP/1.1 instead. This is done to provide compatibility without the need for any additional settings. To see which version was used, check NegotiatedHTTPVersion after calling a method. The AllowHTTPFallback setting controls whether this behavior is allowed (default) or disallowed.

HTTP/3 Notes

HTTP/3 is supported only in .NET and Java.

When using HTTP/3, a secure (TLS/SSL) connection is required. Attempting to use a plaintext URL with HTTP/3 will result in an error.

IfModifiedSince:   A date determining the maximum age of the desired document.

If this setting contains a nonempty string, an If-Modified-Since HTTP header is added to the request. The value of this header is used to make the HTTP request conditional: if the requested documented has not been modified since the time specified in the field, a copy of the document will not be returned from the server; instead, a 304 (not modified) response will be returned by the server and the component throws an exception

The format of the date value for IfModifiedSince is detailed in the HTTP specs. For example: Sat, 29 Oct 2017 19:43:31 GMT.

KeepAlive:   Determines whether the HTTP connection is closed after completion of the request.

If true, the component will not send the Connection: Close header. The absence of the Connection header indicates to the server that HTTP persistent connections should be used if supported. Note: Not all servers support persistent connections. If false, the connection will be closed immediately after the server response is received.

The default value for KeepAlive is false.

KerberosSPN:   The Service Principal Name for the Kerberos Domain Controller.

If the Service Principal Name on the Kerberos Domain Controller is not the same as the URL that you are authenticating to, the Service Principal Name should be set here.

LogLevel:   The level of detail that is logged.

This configuration setting controls the level of detail that is logged through the Log event. Possible values are as follows:

0 (None) No events are logged.
1 (Info - default) Informational events are logged.
2 (Verbose) Detailed data are logged.
3 (Debug) Debug data are logged.

The value 1 (Info) logs basic information, including the URL, HTTP version, and status details.

The value 2 (Verbose) logs additional information about the request and response.

The value 3 (Debug) logs the headers and body for both the request and response, as well as additional debug information (if any).

MaxRedirectAttempts:   Limits the number of redirects that are followed in a request.

When FollowRedirects is set to any value other than frNever, the class will follow redirects until this maximum number of redirect attempts are made. The default value is 20.

NegotiatedHTTPVersion:   The negotiated HTTP version.

This configuration setting may be queried after the request is complete to indicate the HTTP version used. When HTTPVersion is set to "2.0" (if the server does not support "2.0"), then the class will fall back to using "1.1" automatically. This setting will indicate which version was used.

OtherHeaders:   Other headers as determined by the user (optional).

This configuration setting can be set to a string of headers to be appended to the HTTP request headers.

The headers must follow the format "header: value" as described in the HTTP specifications. Header lines should be separated by CRLF ("\r\n") .

Use this configuration setting with caution. If this configuration setting contains invalid headers, HTTP requests may fail.

This configuration setting is useful for extending the functionality of the class beyond what is provided.

ProxyAuthorization:   The authorization string to be sent to the proxy server.

This is similar to the Authorization configuration setting, but is used for proxy authorization. If this configuration setting contains a nonempty string, a Proxy-Authorization HTTP request header is added to the request. This header conveys proxy Authorization information to the server. If ProxyUser and ProxyPassword are specified, this value is calculated using the algorithm specified by ProxyAuthScheme.

ProxyAuthScheme:   The authorization scheme to be used for the proxy.

This configuration setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Proxy properties.

ProxyPassword:   A password if authentication is to be used for the proxy.

This configuration setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Proxy properties.

ProxyPort:   Port for the proxy server (default 80).

This configuration setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Proxy properties.

ProxyServer:   Name or IP address of a proxy server (optional).

This configuration setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Proxy properties.

ProxyUser:   A user name if authentication is to be used for the proxy.

This configuration setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Proxy properties.

SentHeaders:   The full set of headers as sent by the client.

This configuration setting returns the complete set of raw headers as sent by the client.

StatusCode:   The status code of the last response from the server.

This configuration setting contains the result code of the last response from the server.

StatusLine:   The first line of the last response from the server.

This setting contains the first line of the last response from the server. The format of the line will be [HTTP version] [Result Code] [Description].

TransferredData:   The contents of the last response from the server.

This configuration setting contains the contents of the last response from the server.

TransferredDataLimit:   The maximum number of incoming bytes to be stored by the class.

If TransferredDataLimit is set to 0 (default), no limits are imposed. Otherwise, this reflects the maximum number of incoming bytes that can be stored by the class.

TransferredHeaders:   The full set of headers as received from the server.

This configuration setting returns the complete set of raw headers as received from the server.

TransferredRequest:   The full request as sent by the client.

This configuration setting returns the full request as sent by the client. For performance reasons, the request is not normally saved. Set this configuration setting to ON before making a request to enable it. Following are examples of this request:

.NET Http http = new Http(); http.Config("TransferredRequest=on"); http.PostData = "body"; http.Post("http://someserver.com"); Console.WriteLine(http.Config("TransferredRequest")); C++ HTTP http; http.Config("TransferredRequest=on"); http.SetPostData("body", 5); http.Post("http://someserver.com"); printf("%s\r\n", http.Config("TransferredRequest"));

UseChunkedEncoding:   Enables or Disables HTTP chunked encoding for transfers.

If UseChunkedEncoding is set to True, the class will use HTTP-chunked encoding when posting, if possible. HTTP-chunked encoding allows large files to be sent in chunks instead of all at once. If set to False, the class will not use HTTP-chunked encoding. The default value is False.

Note: Some servers (such as the ASP.NET Development Server) may not support chunked encoding.

UseIDNs:   Whether to encode hostnames to internationalized domain names.

This configuration setting specifies whether hostnames containing non-ASCII characters are encoded to internationalized domain names. When set to True, if a hostname contains non-ASCII characters, it is encoded using Punycode to an IDN (internationalized domain name).

The default value is False and the hostname will always be used exactly as specified. Note: The CodePage setting must be set to a value capable of interpreting the specified host name. For instance, to specify UTF-8, set CodePage to 65001. In the C++ Edition for Windows, the *W version of the class must be used. For instance, DNSW or HTTPW.

UsePlatformHTTPClient:   Whether or not to use the platform HTTP client.

When using this configuration setting, if True, the component will use the default HTTP client for the platform (URLConnection in Java, WebRequest in .NET, or CFHTTPMessage in Mac/iOS) instead of the internal HTTP implementation. This is important for environments in which direct access to sockets is limited or not allowed (e.g., in the Google AppEngine).

Note: This setting is applicable only to Mac/iOS editions.

UseProxyAutoConfigURL:   Whether to use a Proxy auto-config file when attempting a connection.

This configuration specifies whether the class will attempt to use the Proxy auto-config URL when establishing a connection and ProxyAutoDetect is set to True.

When True (default), the class will check for the existence of a Proxy auto-config URL, and if found, will determine the appropriate proxy to use.

UserAgent:   Information about the user agent (browser).

This is the value supplied in the HTTP User-Agent header. The default setting is "IPWorks HTTP Component - www.nsoftware.com".

Override the default with the name and version of your software.

TCPClient Config Settings

ConnectionTimeout:   Sets a separate timeout value for establishing a connection.

When set, this configuration setting allows you to specify a different timeout value for establishing a connection. Otherwise, the class will use Timeout for establishing a connection and transmitting/receiving data.

FirewallAutoDetect:   Tells the class whether or not to automatically detect and use firewall system settings, if available.

This configuration setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallHost:   Name or IP address of firewall (optional).

If a FirewallHost is given, requested connections will be authenticated through the specified firewall when connecting.

If the FirewallHost setting is set to a Domain Name, a DNS request is initiated. Upon successful termination of the request, the FirewallHost setting is set to the corresponding address. If the search is not successful, an error is returned.

Note: This setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallPassword:   Password to be used if authentication is to be used when connecting through the firewall.

If FirewallHost is specified, the FirewallUser and FirewallPassword settings are used to connect and authenticate to the given firewall. If the authentication fails, the class fails with an error.

Note: This setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallPort:   The TCP port for the FirewallHost;.

The FirewallPort is set automatically when FirewallType is set to a valid value.

Note: This configuration setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallType:   Determines the type of firewall to connect through.

The appropriate values are as follows:

0No firewall (default setting).
1Connect through a tunneling proxy. FirewallPort is set to 80.
2Connect through a SOCKS4 Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080.
3Connect through a SOCKS5 Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080.
10Connect through a SOCKS4A Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080.

Note: This setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallUser:   A user name if authentication is to be used connecting through a firewall.

If the FirewallHost is specified, the FirewallUser and FirewallPassword settings are used to connect and authenticate to the Firewall. If the authentication fails, the class fails with an error.

Note: This setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

KeepAliveInterval:   The retry interval, in milliseconds, to be used when a TCP keep-alive packet is sent and no response is received.

When set, TCPKeepAlive will automatically be set to True. A TCP keep-alive packet will be sent after a period of inactivity as defined by KeepAliveTime. If no acknowledgment is received from the remote host, the keep-alive packet will be sent again. This configuration setting specifies the interval at which the successive keep-alive packets are sent in milliseconds. This system default if this value is not specified here is 1 second.

Note: This value is not applicable in macOS.

KeepAliveRetryCount:   The number of keep-alive packets to be sent before the remotehost is considered disconnected.

When set, TCPKeepAlive will automatically be set to True. A TCP keep-alive packet will be sent after a period of inactivity as defined by KeepAliveTime. If no acknowledgment is received from the remote host, the keep-alive packet will be sent again. This configuration setting specifies the number of times that the keep-alive packets will be sent before the remote host is considered disconnected. The system default if this value is not specified here is 9.

Note: This configuration setting is only available in the Unix platform. It is not supported in masOS or FreeBSD.

KeepAliveTime:   The inactivity time in milliseconds before a TCP keep-alive packet is sent.

When set, TCPKeepAlive will automatically be set to True. By default, the operating system will determine the time a connection is idle before a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) keep-alive packet is sent. This system default if this value is not specified here is 2 hours. In many cases, a shorter interval is more useful. Set this value to the desired interval in milliseconds.

Linger:   When set to True, connections are terminated gracefully.

This property controls how a connection is closed. The default is True.

In the case that Linger is True (default), two scenarios determine how long the connection will linger. In the first, if LingerTime is 0 (default), the system will attempt to send pending data for a connection until the default IP timeout expires.

In the second scenario, if LingerTime is a positive value, the system will attempt to send pending data until the specified LingerTime is reached. If this attempt fails, then the system will reset the connection.

The default behavior (which is also the default mode for stream sockets) might result in a long delay in closing the connection. Although the class returns control immediately, the system could hold system resources until all pending data are sent (even after your application closes).

Setting this property to False forces an immediate disconnection. If you know that the other side has received all the data you sent (e.g., by a client acknowledgment), setting this property to False might be the appropriate course of action.

LingerTime:   Time in seconds to have the connection linger.

LingerTime is the time, in seconds, the socket connection will linger. This value is 0 by default, which means it will use the default IP timeout.

LocalHost:   The name of the local host through which connections are initiated or accepted.

The LocalHost setting contains the name of the local host as obtained by the gethostname() system call, or if the user has assigned an IP address, the value of that address.

In multi-homed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface) setting LocalHost to the value of an interface will make the class initiate connections (or accept in the case of server classs) only through that interface.

If the class is connected, the LocalHost setting shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multi-homed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).

LocalPort:   The port in the local host where the class binds.

This must be set before a connection is attempted. It instructs the class to bind to a specific port (or communication endpoint) in the local machine.

Setting this to 0 (default) enables the system to choose a port at random. The chosen port will be shown by LocalPort after the connection is established.

LocalPort cannot be changed once a connection is made. Any attempt to set this when a connection is active will generate an error.

This; setting is useful when trying to connect to services that require a trusted port in the client side. An example is the remote shell (rsh) service in UNIX systems.

MaxLineLength:   The maximum amount of data to accumulate when no EOL is found.

MaxLineLength is the size of an internal buffer, which holds received data while waiting for an EOL string.

If an EOL string is found in the input stream before MaxLineLength bytes are received, the DataIn event is fired with the EOL parameter set to True, and the buffer is reset.

If no EOL is found, and MaxLineLength bytes are accumulated in the buffer, the DataIn event is fired with the EOL parameter set to False, and the buffer is reset.

The minimum value for MaxLineLength is 256 bytes. The default value is 2048 bytes.

MaxTransferRate:   The transfer rate limit in bytes per second.

This configuration setting can be used to throttle outbound TCP traffic. Set this to the number of bytes to be sent per second. By default, this is not set and there is no limit.

ProxyExceptionsList:   A semicolon separated list of hosts and IPs to bypass when using a proxy.

This configuration setting optionally specifies a semicolon-separated list of hostnames or IP addresses to bypass when a proxy is in use. When requests are made to hosts specified in this property, the proxy will not be used. For instance:

www.google.com;www.nsoftware.com

TCPKeepAlive:   Determines whether or not the keep alive socket option is enabled.

If set to True, the socket's keep-alive option is enabled and keep-alive packets will be sent periodically to maintain the connection. Set KeepAliveTime and KeepAliveInterval to configure the timing of the keep-alive packets.

Note: This value is not applicable in Java.

TcpNoDelay:   Whether or not to delay when sending packets.

When true, the socket will send all data that is ready to send at once. When false, the socket will send smaller buffered packets of data at small intervals. This is known as the Nagle algorithm.

By default, this config is set to false.

UseIPv6:   Whether to use IPv6.

When set to 0 (default), the class will use IPv4 exclusively. When set to 1, the class will use IPv6 exclusively. To instruct the class to prefer IPv6 addresses, but use IPv4 if IPv6 is not supported on the system, this setting should be set to 2. The default value is 0. Possible values are:

0 IPv4 Only
1 IPv6 Only
2 IPv6 with IPv4 fallback

SSL Config Settings

LogSSLPackets:   Controls whether SSL packets are logged when using the internal security API.

When SSLProvider is set to Internal, this setting controls whether SSL packets should be logged. By default, this setting is False, as it is only useful for debugging purposes.

When enabled, SSL packet logs are output using the SSLStatus event, which will fire each time an SSL packet is sent or received.

Enabling this setting has no effect if SSLProvider is set to Platform.

OpenSSLCADir:   The path to a directory containing CA certificates.

This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

The path set by this property should point to a directory containing CA certificates in PEM format. The files each contain one CA certificate. The files are looked up by the CA subject name hash value, which must hence be available. If more than one CA certificate with the same name hash value exist, the extension must be different (e.g. 9d66eef0.0, 9d66eef0.1 etc). OpenSSL recommends to use the c_rehash utility to create the necessary links. Please refer to the OpenSSL man page SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) for details.

OpenSSLCAFile:   Name of the file containing the list of CA's trusted by your application.

This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

The file set by this property should contain a list of CA certificates in PEM format. The file can contain several CA certificates identified by

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

... (CA certificate in base64 encoding) ...

-----END CERTIFICATE-----

sequences. Before, between, and after the certificates text is allowed which can be used e.g. for descriptions of the certificates. Please refer to the OpenSSL man page SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) for details.

OpenSSLCipherList:   A string that controls the ciphers to be used by SSL.

This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

The format of this string is described in the OpenSSL man page ciphers(1) section "CIPHER LIST FORMAT". Please refer to it for details. The default string "DEFAULT" is determined at compile time and is normally equivalent to "ALL:!ADH:RC4+RSA:+SSLv2:@STRENGTH".

OpenSSLPrngSeedData:   The data to seed the pseudo random number generator (PRNG).

This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

By default OpenSSL uses the device file "/dev/urandom" to seed the PRNG and setting OpenSSLPrngSeedData is not required. If set, the string specified is used to seed the PRNG.

ReuseSSLSession:   Determines if the SSL session is reused.

If set to true, the class will reuse the context if and only if the following criteria are met:

  • The target host name is the same.
  • The system cache entry has not expired (default timeout is 10 hours).
  • The application process that calls the function is the same.
  • The logon session is the same.
  • The instance of the class is the same.

SSLCACertFilePaths:   The paths to CA certificate files on Unix/Linux.

This setting specifies the paths on disk to CA certificate files on Unix/Linux.

The value is formatted as a list of paths separated by semicolons. The class will check for the existence of each file in the order specified. When a file is found the CA certificates within the file will be loaded and used to determine the validity of server or client certificates.

The default value is:

/etc/ssl/ca-bundle.pem;/etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt;/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt;/etc/pki/tls/cacert.pem

SSLCACerts:   A newline separated list of CA certificate to use during SSL client authentication.

This setting specifies one or more CA certificates to be included in the request when performing SSL client authentication. Some servers require the entire chain, including CA certificates, to be presented when performing SSL client authentication. The value of this setting is a newline (CrLf) separated list of certificates. For instance:

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw
...
eWHV5OW1K53o/atv59sOiW5K3crjFhsBOd5Q+cJJnU+SWinPKtANXMht+EDvYY2w

-----END CERTIFICATE-----

SSLCipherStrength:   The minimum cipher strength used for bulk encryption.

This minimum cipher strength largely dependent on the security modules installed on the system. If the cipher strength specified is not supported, an error will be returned when connections are initiated.

Please note that this setting contains the minimum cipher strength requested from the security library. The actual cipher strength used for the connection is shown by the SSLStatus event.

Use this setting with caution. Requesting a lower cipher strength than necessary could potentially cause serious security vulnerabilities in your application.

When the provider is OpenSSL, SSLCipherStrength is currently not supported. This functionality is instead made available through the OpenSSLCipherList config setting.

SSLEnabledCipherSuites:   The cipher suite to be used in an SSL negotiation.

The enabled cipher suites to be used in SSL negotiation.

By default, the enabled cipher suites will include all available ciphers ("*").

The special value "*" means that the class will pick all of the supported cipher suites. If SSLEnabledCipherSuites is set to any other value, only the specified cipher suites will be considered.

Multiple cipher suites are separated by semicolons.

Example values when SSLProvider is set to Platform: obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=*"); obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=CALG_AES_256"); obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=CALG_AES_256;CALG_3DES"); Possible values when SSLProvider is set to Platform include:

When TLS 1.3 is negotiated (see SSLEnabledProtocols) only the following cipher suites are supported:

  • TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
  • TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256
  • TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256

SSLEnabledCipherSuites is used together with SSLCipherStrength.

SSLEnabledProtocols:   Used to enable/disable the supported security protocols.

Used to enable/disable the supported security protocols.

Not all supported protocols are enabled by default (the value of this setting is 4032). If you want more granular control over the enabled protocols, you can set this property to the binary 'OR' of one or more of the following values:

TLS1.312288 (Hex 3000)
TLS1.23072 (Hex C00) (Default)
TLS1.1768 (Hex 300) (Default)
TLS1 192 (Hex C0) (Default)
SSL3 48 (Hex 30) [Platform Only]
SSL2 12 (Hex 0C) [Platform Only]

SSLEnabledProtocols - TLS 1.3 Notes

By default when TLS 1.3 is enabled the class will use the internal TLS implementation when the SSLProvider is set to Automatic for all editions.

In editions which are designed to run on Windows SSLProvider can be set to Platform to use the platform implementation instead of the internal implementation. When configured in this manner, please note that the platform provider is only supported on Windows 11 / Windows Server 2022 and up. The default internal provider is available on all platforms and is not restricted to any specific OS version.

If set to 1 (Platform provider) please be aware of the following notes:

  • The platform provider is only available on Windows 11 / Windows Server 2022 and up.
  • SSLEnabledCipherSuites and other similar SSL configuration settings are not supported.
  • If SSLEnabledProtocols includes both TLS 1.3 and TLS 1.2 the above restrictions are still applicable even if TLS 1.2 is negotiated. Enabling TLS 1.3 with the platform provider changes the implementation used for all TLS versions.

SSLEnabledProtocols: SSL2 and SSL3 Notes:

SSL 2.0 and 3.0 are not supported by the class when the SSLProvider is set to internal. To use SSL 2.0 or SSL 3.0, the platform security API must have the protocols enabled and SSLProvider needs to be set to platform.

SSLEnableRenegotiation:   Whether the renegotiation_info SSL extension is supported.

This setting specifies whether the renegotiation_info SSL extension will be used in the request when using the internal security API. This setting is true by default, but can be set to false to disable the extension.

This setting is only applicable when SSLProvider is set to Internal.

SSLIncludeCertChain:   Whether the entire certificate chain is included in the SSLServerAuthentication event.

This setting specifies whether the Encoded parameter of the SSLServerAuthentication event contains the full certificate chain. By default this value is False and only the leaf certificate will be present in the Encoded parameter of the SSLServerAuthentication event.

If set to True all certificates returned by the server will be present in the Encoded parameter of the SSLServerAuthentication event. This includes the leaf certificate, any intermediate certificate, and the root certificate.

SSLKeyLogFile:   The location of a file where per-session secrets are written for debugging purposes.

This setting optionally specifies the full path to a file on disk where per-session secrets are stored for debugging purposes.

When set, the class will save the session secrets in the same format as the SSLKEYLOGFILE environment variable functionality used by most major browsers and tools such as Chrome, Firefox, and cURL. This file can then be used in tools such as Wireshark to decrypt TLS traffice for debugging purposes. When writing to this file the class will only append, it will not overwrite previous values.

Note: This setting is only applicable when SSLProvider is set to Internal.

SSLNegotiatedCipher:   Returns the negotiated cipher suite.

Returns the cipher suite negotiated during the SSL handshake.

Note: For server components (e.g. TCPServer) this is a per-connection setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedCipher[connId]");

SSLNegotiatedCipherStrength:   Returns the negotiated cipher suite strength.

Returns the strength of the cipher suite negotiated during the SSL handshake.

Note: For server components (e.g.TCPServer) this is a per-connection setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedCipherStrength[connId]");

SSLNegotiatedCipherSuite:   Returns the negotiated cipher suite.

Returns the cipher suite negotiated during the SSL handshake represented as a single string.

Note: For server components (e.g. TCPServer) this is a per-connection setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedCipherSuite[connId]");

SSLNegotiatedKeyExchange:   Returns the negotiated key exchange algorithm.

Returns the key exchange algorithm negotiated during the SSL handshake.

Note: For server components (e.g. TCPServer) this is a per-connection setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedKeyExchange[connId]");

SSLNegotiatedKeyExchangeStrength:   Returns the negotiated key exchange algorithm strength.

Returns the strenghth of the key exchange algorithm negotiated during the SSL handshake.

Note: For server components (e.g. TCPServer) this is a per-connection setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedKeyExchangeStrength[connId]");

SSLNegotiatedVersion:   Returns the negotiated protocol version.

Returns the protocol version negotiated during the SSL handshake.

Note: For server components (e.g. TCPServer) this is a per-connection setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedVersion[connId]");

SSLSecurityFlags:   Flags that control certificate verification.

The following flags are defined (specified in hexadecimal notation). They can be or-ed together to exclude multiple conditions:

0x00000001Ignore time validity status of certificate.
0x00000002Ignore time validity status of CTL.
0x00000004Ignore non-nested certificate times.
0x00000010Allow unknown Certificate Authority.
0x00000020Ignore wrong certificate usage.
0x00000100Ignore unknown certificate revocation status.
0x00000200Ignore unknown CTL signer revocation status.
0x00000400Ignore unknown Certificate Authority revocation status.
0x00000800Ignore unknown Root revocation status.
0x00008000Allow test Root certificate.
0x00004000Trust test Root certificate.
0x80000000Ignore non-matching CN (certificate CN not-matching server name).

This functionality is currently not available when the provider is OpenSSL.

SSLServerCACerts:   A newline separated list of CA certificate to use during SSL server certificate validation.

This setting optionally specifies one or more CA certificates to be used when verifying the server certificate. When verifying the server's certificate the certificates trusted by the system will be used as part of the verification process. If the server's CA certificates are not installed to the trusted system store, they may be specified here so they are included when performing the verification process. This setting should only be set if the server's CA certificates are not already trusted on the system and cannot be installed to the trusted system store.

The value of this setting is a newline (CrLf) separated list of certificates. For instance:

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw
...
eWHV5OW1K53o/atv59sOiW5K3crjFhsBOd5Q+cJJnU+SWinPKtANXMht+EDvYY2w

-----END CERTIFICATE-----

TLS12SignatureAlgorithms:   Defines the allowed TLS 1.2 signature algorithms when SSLProvider is set to Internal.

This setting specifies the allowed server certificate signature algorithms when SSLProvider is set to Internal and SSLEnabledProtocols is set to allow TLS 1.2.

When specified the class will verify that the server certificate signature algorithm is among the values specified in this setting. If the server certificate signature algorithm is unsupported the class fails with an error.

The format of this value is a comma separated list of hash-signature combinations. For instance: component.SSLProvider = TCPClientSSLProviders.sslpInternal; component.Config("SSLEnabledProtocols=3072"); //TLS 1.2 component.Config("TLS12SignatureAlgorithms=sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa,sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa"); The default value for this setting is sha512-ecdsa,sha512-rsa,sha512-dsa,sha384-ecdsa,sha384-rsa,sha384-dsa,sha256-ecdsa,sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa,sha224-ecdsa,sha224-rsa,sha224-dsa,sha1-ecdsa,sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa.

In order to not restrict the server's certificate signature algorithm, specify an empty string as the value for this setting, which will cause the signature_algorithms TLS 1.2 extension to not be sent.

TLS12SupportedGroups:   The supported groups for ECC.

This setting specifies a comma separated list of named groups used in TLS 1.2 for ECC.

The default value is ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ecdhe_secp521r1.

When using TLS 1.2 and SSLProvider is set to Internal, the values refer to the supported groups for ECC. The following values are supported:

  • "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp521r1" (default)

TLS13KeyShareGroups:   The groups for which to pregenerate key shares.

This setting specifies a comma separated list of named groups used in TLS 1.3 for key exchange. The groups specified here will have key share data pregenerated locally before establishing a connection. This can prevent an additional round trip during the handshake if the group is supported by the server.

The default value is set to balance common supported groups and the computational resources required to generate key shares. As a result only some groups are included by default in this setting.

Note: All supported groups can always be used during the handshake even if not listed here, but if a group is used which is not present in this list it will incur an additional round trip and time to generate the key share for that group.

In most cases this setting does not need to be modified. This should only be modified if there is a specific reason to do so.

The default value is ecdhe_x25519,ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ffdhe_2048,ffdhe_3072

The values are ordered from most preferred to least preferred. The following values are supported:

  • "ecdhe_x25519" (default)
  • "ecdhe_x448"
  • "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)

  • "ffdhe_3072" (default)
  • "ffdhe_4096"
  • "ffdhe_6144"
  • "ffdhe_8192"

TLS13SignatureAlgorithms:   The allowed certificate signature algorithms.

This setting holds a comma separated list of allowed signature algorithms. Possible values are:

  • "ed25519" (default)
  • "ed448" (default)
  • "ecdsa_secp256r1_sha256" (default)
  • "ecdsa_secp384r1_sha384" (default)
  • "ecdsa_secp521r1_sha512" (default)
  • "rsa_pkcs1_sha256" (default)
  • "rsa_pkcs1_sha384" (default)
  • "rsa_pkcs1_sha512" (default)
  • "rsa_pss_sha256" (default)
  • "rsa_pss_sha384" (default)
  • "rsa_pss_sha512" (default)
The default value is rsa_pss_sha256,rsa_pss_sha384,rsa_pss_sha512,rsa_pkcs1_sha256,rsa_pkcs1_sha384,rsa_pkcs1_sha512,ecdsa_secp256r1_sha256,ecdsa_secp384r1_sha384,ecdsa_secp521r1_sha512,ed25519,ed448. This setting is only applicable when SSLEnabledProtocols includes TLS 1.3.
TLS13SupportedGroups:   The supported groups for (EC)DHE key exchange.

This setting specifies a comma separated list of named groups used in TLS 1.3 for key exchange. This setting should only be modified if there is a specific reason to do so.

The default value is ecdhe_x25519,ecdhe_x448,ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ecdhe_secp521r1,ffdhe_2048,ffdhe_3072,ffdhe_4096,ffdhe_6144,ffdhe_8192

The values are ordered from most preferred to least preferred. The following values are supported:

  • "ecdhe_x25519" (default)
  • "ecdhe_x448" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp521r1" (default)
  • "ffdhe_2048" (default)
  • "ffdhe_3072" (default)
  • "ffdhe_4096" (default)
  • "ffdhe_6144" (default)
  • "ffdhe_8192" (default)

Socket Config Settings

AbsoluteTimeout:   Determines whether timeouts are inactivity timeouts or absolute timeouts.

If AbsoluteTimeout is set to True, any method which does not complete within Timeout seconds will be aborted. By default, AbsoluteTimeout is False, and the timeout is an inactivity timeout.

Note: This option is not valid for UDP ports.

FirewallData:   Used to send extra data to the firewall.

When the firewall is a tunneling proxy, use this property to send custom (additional) headers to the firewall (e.g. headers for custom authentication schemes).

InBufferSize:   The size in bytes of the incoming queue of the socket.

This is the size of an internal queue in the TCP/IP stack. You can increase or decrease its size depending on the amount of data that you will be receiving. Increasing the value of the InBufferSize setting can provide significant improvements in performance in some cases.

Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the class is activated the InBufferSize reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small.

OutBufferSize:   The size in bytes of the outgoing queue of the socket.

This is the size of an internal queue in the TCP/IP stack. You can increase or decrease its size depending on the amount of data that you will be sending. Increasing the value of the OutBufferSize setting can provide significant improvements in performance in some cases.

Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the class is activated the OutBufferSize reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small.

Base Config Settings

LicenseInfo:   Information about the current license.

When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the license this instance of a class is using. It will return the following information:

  • Product: The product the license is for.
  • Product Key: The key the license was generated from.
  • License Source: Where the license was found (e.g., RuntimeLicense, License File).
  • License Type: The type of license installed (e.g., Royalty Free, Single Server).
  • Last Valid Build: The last valid build number for which the license will work.
MaskSensitive:   Whether sensitive data is masked in log messages.

In certain circumstances it may be beneficial to mask sensitive data, like passwords, in log messages. Set this to true to mask sensitive data. The default is true.

This setting only works on these classes: AS3Receiver, AS3Sender, Atom, Client(3DS), FTP, FTPServer, IMAP, OFTPClient, SSHClient, SCP, Server(3DS), Sexec, SFTP, SFTPServer, SSHServer, TCPClient, TCPServer.

ProcessIdleEvents:   Whether the class uses its internal event loop to process events when the main thread is idle.

If set to False, the class will not fire internal idle events. Set this to False to use the class in a background thread on Mac OS. By default, this setting is True.

SelectWaitMillis:   The length of time in milliseconds the class will wait when DoEvents is called if there are no events to process.

If there are no events to process when DoEvents is called, the class will wait for the amount of time specified here before returning. The default value is 20.

UseInternalSecurityAPI:   Whether or not to use the system security libraries or an internal implementation.

When set to false, the class will use the system security libraries by default to perform cryptographic functions where applicable.

Setting this configuration setting to true tells the class to use the internal implementation instead of using the system security libraries.

On Windows, this setting is set to false by default. On Linux/macOS, this setting is set to true by default.

To use the system security libraries for Linux, OpenSSL support must be enabled. For more information on how to enable OpenSSL, please refer to the OpenSSL Notes section.

Trappable Errors (FedExShip Class)

Error Handling (C++)

Call the GetLastErrorCode() method to obtain the last called method's result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. Known error codes are listed below. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message.

FedExShip Errors

301   Operation interrupted (or timeout).
432   Invalid index.
527   Server Error Response.
528   Property set with invalid data.

The class may also return one of the following error codes, which are inherited from other classes.
