Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the Webshipper API to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Webshipper 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%2Fwebshipper.io%2Fwebshipper" | sh

Step 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%2Fwebshipper.io%2Fwebshipper" | sh
jentic register       # connects your agent to your Jentic One instance

Jentic 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.

Automated drop_point_locators Management

Automate drop_point_locators operations by combining multiple Webshipper API endpoints. Agents can create order and then list orders in a single workflow.

Call POST /orders to create order, then verify the result

AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call Webshipper API 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 oauth2 tokens manually.

Search Jentic for 'obtain oauth2 access token', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Why Jentic?

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.

Setup

Wiring Webshipper by hand means running its OAuth2 token flow, resolving the per-account host in the {account_name}.api.webshipper.io base URL, and handling retries yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import Webshipper from the API Directory, store the OAuth2 credentials once, and your agent calls it.

Permission scoping

Webshipper takes order and shipment details in the request body rather than in the path, so limit the agent to the operations it needs, such as creating orders or requesting rate quotes. You choose the operations it may call, so shipment creation is not included unless you add it.

Credential isolation

Your Webshipper OAuth2 credentials are stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. They never enter the agent's prompt, logs, or context.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'create a shipping order' or 'get a rate quote', and Jentic returns the matching Webshipper operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

FAQs

Specific to using Webshipper API through Jentic.

What authentication does the Webshipper API use?

The Webshipper API uses OAuth 2.0 for authorization. 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 obtain oauth2 access token with the Webshipper API?

Yes. Use the POST /oauth/token endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.

What are the rate limits for the Webshipper API?

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 obtain oauth2 access token through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'obtain oauth2 access token'. Jentic returns the matching Webshipper API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.

How many endpoints does the Webshipper API have?

The Webshipper API exposes 10 endpoints covering drop_point_locators, oauth, orders operations.

Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Webshipper API?

Yes. Because Jentic One is self-hosted by you, your own rules decide which Webshipper operations and OAuth2 credentials the agent may use. Webshipper passes order and shipment details in the request body rather than the path, so you can grant only the operations the agent needs, such as creating orders or requesting rate quotes, and leave out shipment creation unless you add it. The agent can call nothing beyond the operations and credentials you have approved.
