Hi Kurt

There is a Consignor integration for Dynamicweb 9.7 (should work in 9.6 as well, but not tested). Find it here: https://www.nuget.org/packages/Dynamicweb.Ecommerce.ShippingProviders.ShipAdvisor/

Install the dll, setup a shipping method using the "ShipAdvisor" and connect to the customer account. Then you have GLS using the Consignor integration and that should makes thing easier.

Hi Kurt

It is still documented, but it supports parcel shops like the other delivery providers - i.e. the https://doc.dynamicweb.com/documentation-9/how-tos/shipping-providers/gls-shopdelivery

So the implementation would be the same as with other delivery providers that supports parcel shops.

If you use GLS directly instead of Dynamicweb template for the parcel shops, you will not have support for other than GLS. The shipadvisor also supports other carriers drop points, i.e. DAO, Bing, PostDK etc. if the customer chooses to support that later on.

Hi Kurt

It is a shipping provider like all the others and work in the same way. A shipping provider is a way for Dynamicweb to make all shipping providers behave in more or less the same way. So the ShipAdvisor does not have an API for it self and share most template tags with the rest of shipping providers.

That means that in the cart, you i.e. have the tag for the shipping fee - that will be the same, but if ShipAdvisor has been setup, that provider will connect to Consignor and calculate the shipping cost. Then you need to specify a template for the provider it self - find our debugging template attached.

When this shipping method is chosen, the shipping provider will return a list of possible delivery methods (depending on your Consignor agreement and setup). If you choose a shipping method in the template that supports parcel shops, it will then list parcel shops.

In this template, like any other template, you can use @TemplateTags() to give you a complete list of available tags and their values.
