Post-Labelcenter Interface Options
EN
In this section, you will find technical details, descriptions and example files for our two interface options, which are polling and webservice.
Polling is an activity where a service is installed that checks a previously defined folder for import files. These files need to have a certain structure (columns, separators, etc.). If such files exist in the import directory, they will automatically be imported into the Post-Labelcenter and shipping labels will either be printed directly or be made available in PDF format for download.

Our webservice gives you the option of making a request in the Post-Labelcenter to create items, import addresses, cancel items, create a daily balance, etc. All requests are transferred as SOAP requests. When importing items, either a PDF or a ZPL2 String will be transferred in the response as a Base64 String if needed. These can be directly forwarded to a laser or label printer.
In addition, during the item import, the item number is also transferred in the response.
