Steps
Authenticate to the Sendcloud Public API v3 using the account's API credentials
POST parcel details (recipient, weight, dimensions) to the parcels create endpoint without immediately requesting a label
Select a shipping method from the available carrier/service combinations returned for the account's connected carrier contracts
Re-submit or update the parcel with request_label set to true to announce it to the carrier and generate the label in the same call
Retrieve the label document and tracking number from the response
Use the returned service point identifier instead of a street address if the shipping method is a PUDO/locker delivery option
Known gotchas
Creating a parcel does not announce it to the carrier by default; the label is only generated once the parcel is explicitly announced (or request_label is set on creation)
Available carriers and services are scoped to the contracts connected to the Sendcloud account, not a fixed universal list — a service visible in one account may be unavailable in another
Sendcloud has both v2 and v3 API versions in its documentation; mixing endpoint versions in the same integration can cause inconsistent field expectations
