Retrieve shipment labels

You can use the GetShipmentLabels operation to obtain shipping labels from Amazon for small parcel shipments from Collect/WePay vendors.

Prerequisites

To complete this tutorial, you need:

• Authorization from the selling partner for whom you are making calls. For more information, refer to Authorizing Selling Partner API Applications.
• The Vendor Retail Procurement Shipments role assigned to your developer profile.

This operation helps vendors retrieve shipping labels for confirmed orders that require shipment from the vendor's warehouse to Amazon's warehouse. Vendors can retrieve labels through a single API call or multiple API calls. Labels are generated once the shipment request is finalized and a carrier is assigned. Vendors can filter labels by buyer reference numbers, seller warehouse codes, and other parameters.

Business requirements

• Call the GetShipmentLabels only after a carrier is assigned.
• If GetShipmentLabels does not return a label or returns Resource Not Found, verify that a carrier has been assigned. Alternatively, you can call GetShipmentDetails to confirm whether the carrier has been assigned.
• If a carrier has been assigned and the operation still returns no label, open a "Contact Us" case in the Vendor Central portal.
• Once a label is used for shipping, it can never be reused.

Country-specific business requirements

This API operation is available only in the NA region.
