ShipStation is a shipping and fulfillment platform for ecommerce sellers and businesses. It helps users manage orders, compare rates, buy labels, track shipments, and coordinate fulfillment workflows across carriers and sales channels.
ShipStation exposes two authenticated REST APIs—a current v2 API and a legacy v1 API—plus a public documentation MCP server at `https://docs.shipstation.com/mcp` for AI assistants.
- ShipStation Documentation MCPdiscovered
- ShipStation API v2discovered
- ShipStation API v1 (legacy)discovered
In your ShipStation account, open the API settings page referenced from the Security & Authentication guide and generate a v2 Companion API Key. The guide says you can generate and copy API keys from your account settings, and that only one v2 key can be active at a time. Save the key when generated; the docs say it should be stored securely and can be revoked from account API settings.
Sign in to ShipStation and go to API Settings. Generate or view your ShipStation API Key and API Secret for the legacy v1 API. The V1 requirements page states these are used as the Basic Auth username and password.
