Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the PostNord API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.
Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fpostnord.com%2Fpostnord" | shStep 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fpostnord.com%2Fpostnord" | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.
What an agent can do with PostNord API.
Track shipments by tracking number or customer reference with event-level detail
Find nearest service points by street address with configurable result count up to 20
Locate pickup points by GPS coordinates for map-based location services
Calculate expected transit days between origin and destination postal codes
Retrieve service point details including opening hours and route distance
GET STARTED
Support multi-language responses in English, Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, and Finnish
Patterns agents use PostNord API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Parcel Tracking Integration
Integrate PostNord shipment tracking into e-commerce platforms and customer portals. The API returns detailed tracking events with timestamps, event codes, and location data for each shipment. Supports tracking by PostNord identifier or seller-assigned customer reference number, enabling both carrier-level and order-level tracking without requiring end customers to know internal shipment IDs.
Track shipment with identifier 'SE123456789' using GET /rest/shipment/v5/trackandtrace/findByIdentifier.json and return the current status and estimated delivery date
Service Point Finder for Checkout Flows
Display nearby PostNord pickup locations during e-commerce checkout so customers can choose their preferred collection point. The API returns up to 20 service points sorted by distance, including address, coordinates, opening hours, and route distance in meters. Supports lookup by street address or GPS coordinates for both desktop address entry and mobile location-based flows.
Find the 5 nearest service points to postal code '11153' in Sweden (country code SE) using GET /rest/businesslocation/v5/servicepoint/findNearestByAddress.json
Transit Time Estimation
Calculate expected delivery times between Nordic postal codes for a given PostNord service type. The API returns transit days and expected delivery date, enabling accurate delivery date displays at checkout and logistics planning. Supports routes within and between Sweden, Denmark, Norway, and Finland with service-specific transit calculations.
Calculate transit time from postal code '11153' in Sweden to '2100' in Denmark for service code '19' using GET /rest/transport/v1/transittime/getTransitTimeInformation.json
AI Agent Logistics Monitoring
Enable AI agents to monitor Nordic shipment status and locate pickup points through Jentic. Agents discover tracking and service point operations via intent search, receive the operation schemas with required parameters, and execute queries without navigating PostNord developer documentation. Jentic handles API key injection so agents focus on shipment data interpretation.
Search Jentic for 'track a parcel in Sweden', load the PostNord tracking schema, and execute with a tracking identifier to retrieve delivery status and events
6 endpoints — jentic publishes the only available openapi specification for postnord api, keeping it validated and agent-ready.

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring the PostNord API by hand means appending your apikey as a query parameter on every call to api2.postnord.com and threading the right track-and-trace or service-point endpoint yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import the PostNord API from the API Directory, store the API key once, and your agent calls it.
Permission scoping
PostNord carries the parcel identifier and address in the query rather than as a path resource, so scoping is by operation: you limit the agent to the operations it needs, such as tracking a shipment or finding the nearest service point. Transit-time lookups are included only if you add that operation.
Credential isolation
Your PostNord API key is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'track a parcel in Sweden' or 'find the nearest service point', and Jentic returns the matching PostNord operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

Specific to using PostNord API through Jentic.
Why is there no official OpenAPI spec for PostNord API?
PostNord does not publish an OpenAPI specification. Jentic generates and maintains this spec so that AI agents and developers can call PostNord API via structured tooling. It is validated against the live API and kept up to date. Get started with Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer.
What authentication does the PostNord API use?
The PostNord API uses an API key passed as a query parameter named apikey. You obtain a key from the PostNord developer portal. Through Jentic, this key is stored encrypted in the credential vault and injected automatically into requests.
Which countries does the PostNord API cover for shipment tracking?
The PostNord API covers Sweden (SE), Denmark (DK), Norway (NO), and Finland (FI). All service point and tracking endpoints accept country codes from these four Nordic countries. Transit time calculations support routes within and between these countries.
What are the rate limits for the PostNord API?
The PostNord API enforces per-key rate limits that depend on your developer account tier. Service point lookups return up to 20 results per request via the numberOfServicePoints parameter. Monitor response codes for rate limit indicators and implement backoff when needed.
How do I find the nearest pickup point through the PostNord API using Jentic?
Install the SDK with pip install jentic, then search for 'find nearest PostNord service point'. Jentic returns the findNearestByAddress operation schema requiring countryCode and at least a postalCode or city. Execute to receive service points sorted by distance with addresses, coordinates, and opening hours.
Can I track a shipment by order number rather than tracking ID?
Yes. The findByReference endpoint at /rest/shipment/v5/trackandtrace/findByReference.json accepts a customer reference number along with your PostNord customer number. This enables tracking by your internal order ID without requiring the PostNord tracking identifier.
Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the PostNord API?
Yes. Because you run Jentic One yourself, your own rules decide which PostNord operations and credentials the agent may use, and scoping here works at the operation level since the parcel identifier and address travel in the query rather than as a path resource. You can allow only the operations the agent needs, such as tracking a shipment by identifier or finding the nearest service point by address or coordinates, while withholding others. Transit-time lookups are available to the agent only if you include that operation in its allowed set. The API key stays with your instance and is injected at execution, so it never reaches the agent's prompt or logs.
