Track packages across USPS, UPS, and FedEx with a single API call. Auto-detects carrier from tracking number format.

Features

Automatic Carrier Detection

No need to specify which carrier — the actor analyzes the tracking number format and routes to the correct API:

Unified Response Format

All carriers return the same structured data:

• Current status and location
• Estimated and actual delivery dates
• Full event history with timestamps
• Error handling with clear messages

Demo Mode

Test integrations without API credentials. Enable demoMode: true to get realistic sample data.

Quick Start

{
"input":"your input here"
}

Demo Mode

Set demoMode: true to test with sample data (no charges). When you're ready for real results, set demoMode: false or omit it.

{
"demoMode":true,
 ...
}

Common Problems & Solutions

"Invalid API key" error

Cause: Your API key is wrong, expired, or doesn't have the right permissions. Fix: Double-check your API key. Make sure you copied it exactly without extra spaces.

"Rate limit exceeded" error

Cause: You've hit the API's rate limits. Fix: Wait a few minutes, then try again. Consider reducing the number of concurrent requests.

Empty or incomplete results

Cause: The target may have anti-scraping protection or the data doesn't exist. Fix:

• Check if the URL/search query is correct
• Try with different parameters
• Some sites may block automated access

Demo data showing instead of real results

Cause: demoMode is still set to true. Fix: Set demoMode: false and provide your API key(s).
