Supplier API

Introduction

The Order Push API allows a supplier to configure a per dropship URL that will receive order details for any new orders created by retailers.

Order details are sent to the URL via a simple JSON POST request.

Additionally, a X-CustomGateway-Hmac header is also sent as part of the request. This header can be used to verify that the request has originated from KornitX.

Below is an example of the JSON structure you can expect to receive

Order Level Attributes

The Kornit X platform allows order level attributes to be submitted which may contain additional relevant information. For example for shipments to Brazil or other countries where this is required this is where the TaxID that will be needed to process shipping will be provided

JSON
"attributes":[
            {
               "name":"TaxID",
               "value":"123456789"
            },

Setup

To receive order pushes, a supplier must enable the "Generic API" supplier integration against the relevant dropship company in the Kornit X platform.

Note - This integration can be set on a “Fulfiller” type company if it is part of a network. In that case this integration will run on all connected dropships that do not have their own overriding integration.

Once the integration has been enabled, a push URL defined and changes saved, a HMAC key will be automatically generated.

The integration can be accessed by going to SETTINGS > COMPANIES and selecting a relevant Dropship or Fulfiller based on the above, selecting the “Supplier Integrations” tab and clicking “Generic API”

When this integration is selected you will be presented with a popup where required information and settings can be added.

Enabled - Yes / No for if the integration is enabled and allowed to run

Dispatch Date Filter - If enabled orders will only be processed on their “Required Dispatch Date” so assumes same day turnaround of production.

Dropship Delegation -

Auto Ship - If enabled orders will be automatically classed as shipped when passed into the receiving supplier system

Generate Documents - If you need to get KornitX generated Dispatch or Address labels then the option “Generate Documents” needs to be enabled on the integration settings and these will be generated as part of the initial order processing if they are set on the Sales Channel or Dropship companies. This only supports documents of type (1) Dispatch (meant for packing slips) or (4) Address (meant for basic address labels) and any PDFs generated will be sent in the "pdfs" section of the JSON body.

Email Errors To - Any errors in running this integration will be sent to this email address.

Start Timestamp (UTC) - This is a UTC date time which sets a limit on which any orders older than this will not be triggered on this integration.

Push URL - Your API Endpoint should be added here.

Proxy - If you have agreed a specific proxy IP with KornitX to be used to allow all requests to come from a static IP it should be added here.

HMAC Key - Once the integration has been enabled, a push URL defined and changes saved, a HMAC key will be automatically generated. See below for more details on verifying this key for security.

Artwork Format - PNG, JPEG, TIFF, PDF dropdown.

Do Not Send Blank Print Areas - If enabled then outputs will only be sent where a print area has been populated (this should nearly always be enabled).

Auth Username - If a basic authentication username is needed, add it here.

Auth Password - If a basic authentication password is needed, add it here.

Data Strategy - If you have worked with KornitX on a custom format for how the JSON should be sent to you which does not match our generic format then you will have a unique value to add here to trigger it.

Auth Strategy - If you have worked with KornitX on a custom authentication method which does not match our generic format then you will have a unique value to add here to trigger it.

Response Strategy - If you have worked with KornitX on a custom format for how the responses should be sent which does not match our generic format then you will have a unique value to add here to trigger it.

Push Min. Order Age (s) - An age in seconds that an order must be before the integration is allowed to pick it up, this can allow for customer service windows were order details might be able to be changed.

Supplier API for Kornit Printed Products

This API has additional settings and functionality when dealing with Kornit printed goods.

If you are producing goods on a Kornit Printer then our API can send more information allowing for better accuracy of placement, no manual operator intervention and reduced fixation usage and print time.

 

To enable this setting the

  • “Generic API” supplier integration needs to have “Enable QuickP Compatibility” enabled.

  • MACHINE on the products should be set to “Kornit DTG”

  • PRINT AREA on the products in the KornitX platform must have “Auto Crop” set to “centre” in the “Artwork Output” section

 

If these conditions are met then the printjob artwork the platform generates will be autocropped and details of offset, setup and table will be sent in the JSON data.

"offset_x": 62,

"offset_y": 165,

"setup": "AV HD6 Color STD",

"table": "StandardPallet"

 

 

Below is an example of the assets section of the section where these settings have been applied.

                {

                }
            ]
        } 

 

NOTE - the “name” field on kornit print areas contains the full naming convention so if the file is saved under this name and you have the setup names on your systems these files will drop straight in with the required settings ready to print.

 

Verifying the HMAC Header

Whilst optional, this step is highly recommended for security.

For each push request, a HMAC message digest can be calculated using the SHA256 algorithm with the request body as the input and the HMAC key displayed in the Generic API settings page.

The calculated HMAC message digest should match the value of the requests's X-CustomGateway-Hmac header.

If the values do not match then you should reject the push request.
