00:00:11:23 - 00:00:14:12
In this tutorial, we'll take a look
at setting up an account
00:00:14:12 - 00:00:17:21
with Easypost ready for use within Infigo.
00:00:18:15 - 00:00:21:11
So in order to use Infigo's Easypost
plugin,
00:00:21:11 - 00:00:25:05
you must ensure that you've created
an Easypost account which,
00:00:25:05 - 00:00:29:09
if you haven't already done
so, can be done just on easypost.com.
00:00:30:15 - 00:00:32:19
For information on Easypost costs,
00:00:32:19 - 00:00:35:29
you can check out the rates
at easypost.com/pricing
00:00:36:01 - 00:00:39:07
where you can access it
00:00:39:07 - 00:00:40:17
from the homepage.
00:00:40:17 - 00:00:42:11
Once you've signed up
for an account and logged
00:00:42:11 - 00:00:50:02
in, you'll be taken to the dashboard.
00:00:50:20 - 00:00:53:19
Now that you have an Easypost account,
the first thing that you need to do
00:00:53:19 - 00:00:56:27
is link all of your carrier
accounts with Easypost.
00:00:57:26 - 00:01:00:05
This means that you can start using them.
00:01:00:05 - 00:01:03:20
An Easypost has access to fetch rates
and generate
00:01:03:20 - 00:01:06:20
shipments,
00:01:06:20 - 00:01:10:24
so log into or Easypost account
and then click on the down arrow
00:01:10:24 - 00:01:13:05
next to your email address
in the top left corner.
00:01:14:23 - 00:01:16:20
Then from there,
we're going to go to carrier
00:01:16:20 - 00:01:16:24
accounts.
00:01:18:13 - 00:01:19:08
Any carriers
00:01:19:08 - 00:01:21:24
already linked to
your account will be displayed here.
00:01:22:09 - 00:01:25:27
And from this screen, you can also edit
the information associated
00:01:25:27 - 00:01:28:18
with those carriers
00:01:32:17 - 00:01:33:23
to add a new carrier.
00:01:33:23 - 00:01:36:12
Simply click on the add carrier
button at the top of the screen
00:01:38:05 - 00:01:40:22
and then you'll be faced
with a search function
00:01:40:22 - 00:01:45:07
where you can search for the exact carrier
that you want to add.
00:01:47:16 - 00:01:49:18
If your carrier is not present
00:01:49:27 - 00:01:53:09
in their default list,
then you can contact their support
00:01:53:28 - 00:01:58:04
and ask them to add the carrier
that you want to utilize.
00:01:59:23 - 00:02:02:16
A list of all the carriers that Easypost
currently supports
00:02:02:16 - 00:02:07:19
can be found at easypost.com/carriers
00:02:12:27 - 00:02:13:15
So once you've
00:02:13:15 - 00:02:16:07
located and selected
the carrier that you want to add,
00:02:16:16 - 00:02:20:28
you'll need to populate all of the details
required to connect to that carrier.
00:02:21:13 - 00:02:24:21
Now, this information
usually includes your account number,
00:02:24:21 - 00:02:28:21
address details, and any other specific
carrier information.
00:02:28:29 - 00:02:32:19
So it's best to have these on hand
before you start
00:02:32:19 - 00:02:35:10
this process.
00:02:38:15 - 00:02:40:26
Next will set up the payment information
00:02:40:26 - 00:02:43:18
that we require to create labels
within Easypost.
00:02:44:15 - 00:02:46:23
Again, to begin with this process, click
00:02:46:23 - 00:02:49:17
on your email address or top left corner
00:02:50:23 - 00:02:52:29
and go to billing.
00:02:53:09 - 00:02:56:10
From here, you can add bank details
or credit card details
00:02:56:17 - 00:03:00:15
for any chargeable uses
of your Easypost account.
00:03:04:20 - 00:03:07:07
So Easyposts
have a handy checklist feature.
00:03:07:08 - 00:03:11:23
If you click on the symbol on the bottom
right, which says setup checklist,
00:03:12:11 - 00:03:15:20
this will guide you through the steps
to get you initially set up
00:03:15:20 - 00:03:19:22
with your Easypost account.
00:03:19:22 - 00:03:24:12
So next, we're going to need to obtain
the API keys to connect with Infigo.
00:03:24:25 - 00:03:27:16
So you can begin
by clicking your email address on the top
00:03:27:16 - 00:03:30:20
left corner once again.
00:03:31:00 - 00:03:35:28
And then we're going to go to the API Keys
section.
00:03:35:28 - 00:03:36:22
On this page
00:03:36:22 - 00:03:39:24
are presented
with a minimum of two API keys.
00:03:40:05 - 00:03:43:10
So you'll have a section
which is for production API keys
00:03:43:19 - 00:03:46:05
and one which is for test API keys.
00:03:47:02 - 00:03:49:23
For now, copy and save both of those
00:03:49:23 - 00:03:52:24
API keys somewhere safe and secure.
00:03:52:28 - 00:03:56:01
You'll need to use these later
when setting up your Easypost
00:03:56:01 - 00:03:58:27
Infigo plugin.
00:03:59:11 - 00:04:03:13
Bear in mind that you can create multiple
API keys for each of the production
00:04:03:23 - 00:04:06:29
and the test setups.
