View Full Version : Commerce Library
I know this is new and most people are not here yet but you never know. Anyone have or know of a commerce library for FedEX shipping calculation. Like the UPS one.

If you're seeking to get real time rates from the FedEx gateway, including all viable methods, you'd likely be better off looking at the FedEx Advanced module:

It also allows you to set dimensions, and set specific products (or categories of products) to ship separately, ship split or free shipping options, etc.
That would be great but this is not for Merchant it is for a custom application.

I don't think you would need a commerce library for FedEx, all the interaction with them takes place via regular http requests and responses. You would just need to learn their API and write the appropriate code using MvCALL or whatever the right way to communicate using http is (I'm not a coder).
I have looked through the FEDEX site and can't find the API I found ways to use an iframe to include their rate calculator in the site but can't find a way to just get the shipping cost. If anyone has a link to the API tha would be great.
