API in EasyCargo (part 1) Anna Melounová | 23. Mar 2022

While browsing our website you might have come across the term API. This abbreviation is closely related to the IT industry, so you may not fully understand what this service is all about and what benefits you can get from it. In this article, we will discuss what an API is and how it works. Did you know that it could help you to extend the functionality of your company’s software, for example?

We decided to create a three-part mini-series about an API. Today's article is all about theory. The second part is going to be more practical. We will show you how to use the API to EasyCargo, among other things using our API client. You will see for yourself that appropriate queries to the EasyCargo programming interface result in the requested data. In the last part of the series, we will discuss what communication through the API with EasyCargo makes possible.

The most important, and probably the most noticeable part of the application, is the interactive 3D view of the load. It’s a simulation in which you can view all the items loaded into a container.

How to adjust container space layout? Anna Melounová | 21. Dec 2021

Create load plans for oversized cargo directly in EasyCargo! In our container optimization calculator, it’s now possible to create overhangs or reduce usable cargo space only with a few clicks.

The number one reason for adjusting loading size in EasyCargo, of course, is to reduce the layout size of your container cargo space. By lowering the ceiling of the space, you can enforce loading into layers. This enables you to specify how many layers or how many other items you can place on a particular item.

From now on, you have the option to purchase EasyCargo tickets and licenses through our new webshop. This new way of ordering is not only faster but also more suitable for those customers who are not able to place an order directly in the EasyCargo application.

You can order 24-hour Tickets, one-month licenses, or one-year licenses. Tickets can only be purchased as a pack of 10. If you need a different quantity, you can make an order in the EasyCargo application, or contact us. The minimum order of 24-hour tickets is always 10.
