FedEx as a Channel

July 20, 2026

Summary

The FedEx integration is a shipment-retrieval connection, not a storefront or order channel. Its only supported operation is Get Shipments, which matches FedEx shipments back to Flxpoint fulfillment requests. It does not provide inventory or send fulfillment requests. Connection uses a Client API Key, Client Secret Key, and an environment selection (Sandbox or Production).

Get Shipments
Pulls FedEx shipments and matches them back to Flxpoint fulfillment requests via a reference field.

FedEx as a Channel connects using a Client API Key, Client Secret Key, and Environment (Sandbox or Production) from your FedEx developer project. Add FedEx as a channel, configure Get Shipments, and when Flxpoint prompts you click + New Connection, enter the values, then Test ConnectionSave Connection. In step 2 of configuration, select which FedEx reference field (Purchase Orders or Customer Reference) carries your Flxpoint Fulfillment Request #.

EnvironmentRequired
Select Sandbox or Production to match your FedEx project.
Client API KeyRequired
From your FedEx developer project.
Client Secret KeyRequired
Shown when you create the FedEx project. Regenerate it from the Project Overview page in FedEx if lost.
This connection is shipment-retrieval only — it does not provide inventory or send orders. For shipments to match, enter your Flxpoint Fulfillment Request # in the FedEx Purchase Orders or Customer Reference field when creating the shipment, and select that same field in step 2 of the Flxpoint configuration.

Put the FR number on the FedEx shipment

For shipments to match, enter your Flxpoint Fulfillment Request # in the FedEx Purchase Orders or Customer Reference field when creating the shipment, then select that same field in step 2 of the Flxpoint configuration. Without it, shipments cannot be matched to orders.

Client Secret can be regenerated

The Client Secret Key is shown when you create the FedEx project. If it is lost, regenerate it from the Project Overview page in FedEx.

Match the environment

Select Sandbox or Production to match your FedEx project. A mismatch prevents the connection from working.

Shipment-only integration

This connection does not provide inventory or send orders. Use it purely to pull tracking and shipments for existing fulfillment requests.


Field mapping for this operation is configured with Flxpoint Support.


Why are my FedEx shipments not matching to orders?
The most common cause is that the Flxpoint Fulfillment Request # was not entered in the FedEx Purchase Orders or Customer Reference field on the shipment, or that field was not selected in step 2 of the Flxpoint configuration. Both sides must line up for Get Shipments to match.
