The /v3/carriers/refresh/list endpoint lets you retrieve the complete details of your onboarded carriers, beginning from a specified onboarding date.
For TMS integrators, this endpoint is most useful when your customer first adds their BrokerCarrier API key to their account on your platform. If they have a large number of onboarded carriers in BrokerCarrier that have not been ported to your system, you can use this endpoint to batch-import their entire carrier list.
In addition, you can use this endpoint as a convenient way to refresh the broker’s carrier list every 24-48 hours by specifying the current date or the previous day’s date as the beginning point.
Notes on this endpoint:
- Requires secret key. This endpoint must be called from the server side to avoid compromising your secret API key. Please do not use your secret key in client-side JavaScript.
- Potential for large responses. This endpoint can potentially return very large responses. The complete profile of a single carrier is typically about 3KB, and there can potentially be thousands of carriers in a brokers’s network. For this reason, we recommend handling requests to this endpoint asynchronously.
