Setting up a FedEx API Web Services Account

FedEx API integrations are now managed through the FedEx Developer Portal. The older FedEx Web Services credential flow that used authentication keys, passwords, and meter numbers is legacy guidance for new rate integrations. New integrations should use FedEx project credentials with the current REST API model.

To connect FedEx rates, sign in to the FedEx Developer Portal, create or open a project, add the API products needed for rating, and generate the credentials for your FedEx account. Depending on your account and project setup, the credential details may include:

• Account Number
• API Key or Client ID
• Secret Key or Client Secret
• Enabled API products, such as rates and transit times

Use sandbox credentials for test requests first, then enable production access when the account and API project are ready. SolvingMaze can then use the FedEx API credentials in your shipping profile to include FedEx rates in Pack and Quote API results.
