Learn how to use the Vendor Direct Fulfillment Shipping API to get a list of packing slips for purchase orders. The getPackingSlips operation returns a list of packing slips for the orders which meet the criteria specified. If you need to get a packing slip for a specific order, use the getPackingSlip operation instead.

A packing slip is required only if it is for a Business-to-Business (B2B) order or a gift order. When the value of the isPslipRequired field is true, a packing slip is required for the order.

Note

This is a restricted operation and requires a Restricted Data Token (RDT) for authorization. For more information, refer to the Tokens API Use Case Guide.

You should use this API to get packing slips for the purchase orders available to you for fulfillment. Amazon recommends that vendors check for orders at least once per hour during business hours. Depending on your business volume, you can choose to check more frequently. You can get up to 100 packing slips in one API call. If there are more than 100 packing slips, you can use the nextToken value as a parameter in your next request to get the next set of packing slips.
