For Agents
Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Terminal49 API Reference, 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%2Fterminal49.com%2Fterminal49" | 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%2Fterminal49.com%2Fterminal49" | 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 Terminal49 API Reference API.
List shipments
Get a shipment
Edit a shipment
Stop tracking a shipment
GET STARTED
Programmatically list shipments, get a shipment. Covers 77 operations with apiKey authentication.
Use for: I need to shipments, I want to a shipment, Search for edit a shipment, Find all stop tracking a shipment
Not supported: Does not handle payments, crm, or developer tools - use for communications only.
The Terminal 49 API offers a convenient way to programmatically track your shipments from origin to destination. Please enter your API key into the "Variables" tab before using these endpoints within Postman. The API exposes 77 endpoints secured with apiKey authentication.
Resume tracking a shipment
Create a tracking request
Patterns agents use Terminal49 API Reference API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Communications Operations
Use the Terminal49 API Reference to perform communications operations programmatically. The API provides 77 endpoints covering core functionality including list shipments, get a shipment, edit a shipment.
Call GET /shipments to list shipments
Automated Containers Management
Automate containers operations by combining multiple Terminal49 API Reference endpoints. Agents can get a shipment and then edit a shipment in a single workflow.
Call GET /shipments/{id} to get a shipment, then verify the result
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call Terminal49 API Reference endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle apiKey tokens manually.
Search Jentic for 'list shipments', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials
77 endpoints — the terminal 49 api offers a convenient way to programmatically track your shipments from origin to destination.

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring the Terminal49 API by hand means learning its token-based Authorization header auth against the api.terminal49.com/v2 host and handling shipment and tracking-request calls yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import the Terminal49 API from the API Directory, store the API token once, and your agent calls it.
Permission scoping
Terminal49 puts the shipment id in the URL path (/shipments/{id}), so a rule can pin your agent to one shipment: it can read and update that shipment and nothing else. You choose the operations it may call, so stopping or resuming tracking is not included unless you add it.
Credential isolation
Your Terminal49 API token 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 'list shipments' or 'create a tracking request', and Jentic returns the matching Terminal49 API operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

Specific to using Terminal49 API Reference API through Jentic.
What authentication does the Terminal49 API Reference use?
The Terminal49 API Reference uses an API key passed in the `Authorization` header. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in your Jentic One instance and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Can I list shipments with the Terminal49 API Reference?
Yes. Use the GET /shipments endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the Terminal49 API Reference?
Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.
How do I list shipments through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'list shipments'. Jentic returns the matching Terminal49 API Reference operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the Terminal49 API Reference have?
The Terminal49 API Reference exposes 77 endpoints covering containers, custom field definitions, custom field options operations.
