Meta API Live Pickup Request module
Pickup Requests
-
General
Please note Pickup Requests are not the same as Collection Requests!
Collection Requests, as described here, are a way to ask DPD to go pick up a parcel somewhere and bring it to you or a third party. A Pickup Request on the other hand, is simply asking DPD to come send a driver over to you so they can pick up the parcels you prepared. Collection Requests are also possible in Meta API and are discussed in it’s separate section.Attention – Live requests will be carried out, even if only for testing purposes. Please agree with the Meta API team or DPD BU Sales/Operational representative to cancel the assignments timely in such case.
Below you will find an example of a basic request, but you can find all possible parameters and fields on the Swagger page.
