Today we will learn, how to use shipping API in an open cart and where the open cart uses this shipping API.
Opencart uses the shipping API in the shipping details section while adding or editing the order from the admin end. After adding the payment details from the sales->orders when we click the continue button, then it goes to the shipping details section.
After selecting or adding the shipping address from the shipping details section when we click the continue button. Two methods of payment API will be called: address and methods.
The address method is used to set the shipping address of the order.
The method validates the address values and if all values are following the norms then, it sets the address values into the session. The code of the address method is given below :

$this->response->setOutput(json_encode($json));
}
If an address is successfully saved in the session then, it returns the success message as the response.
The second method is “methods”. The method is used to get the list of shipping methods that can be applied to a particular order based on the shipping address. The code of the method is given below:

}
If the method successfully fetches the available shipping methods then it returns the list of available shipping methods.
In the shipping API, there is one more method named “method”.
The method is used to set the shipping method that will be applied to the current order.
Opencart uses this method in the last step of order creation from the admin end as shown below. The method is called when we click the apply button(placed on the right side of the shipping method).
The code of the method is given below :
