Steps Register as a developer through the Click & Drop portal and generate an API key under Settings > Integrations Include the API key in the authorization header of every request POST order details (recipient, package, and service) to the /api/v1/Orders endpoint, batching up to the documented per-request order limit Retrieve the created order IDs and any generated label references from the response Mark orders as despatched via the API once labels are printed and packages are handed to the carrier Poll the order retrieval endpoint to confirm status before end-of-day manifesting
Known gotchas Accounts are rate-limited to a small number of API calls per second, so bulk order creation needs client-side throttling to avoid throttling errors Orders must be explicitly marked as despatched via the API; simply creating the order does not update its fulfillment status The API key is tied to a Click & Drop business account, not a personal Royal Mail account, so business account setup must be completed first
