Endpoints & API Documentation

See the Authentication section of our API documentation here: Authentication — Legacy API.

Zip uses OAuth2 Client Credentials Flow as the primary means for authorizing Merchant API requests. This is a two step process in that the client must obtain an access token via the OAuth token endpoint and then use this token to access the Zip API endpoints.

Client Id & Client Secret will be provided by Zip.

Note: These access tokens are created with a specific expiration time. The integration should cache these tokens for no longer than the expiration length and request a new one if the existing token has expired. It is important to cache these tokens and not request a new one for each operation.

Refer to the Authentication API documentation for more information.
