Frequently asked questions
Can my AI automatically find the status of a delivery order just by providing its ID?
Yes! Use the get_order tool with the Order ID. Your agent will respond with the current status, customer details, and scheduled delivery times in seconds.
How do I assign a specific driver to an active order?
Simply ask the agent to run the assign_driver action. You will need to provide both the Order ID and the Driver ID to complete the assignment.
How do I find my Shipday API Key?
Log in to your Shipday dashboard, navigate to Settings > API, and you will find your unique secret API key there.
