I need an open, fully documented REST-style API that can sit between Ship ERP and our current Truck Management System, letting the two platforms talk to each other in real time. The core responsibilities of this new layer are: • Real-time status updates – the moment a shipment moves, both systems must reflect it. • Data synchronization – orders, loads, and reference data must stay consistent on both sides. • Rate engine – an endpoint that can accept lane details, weight, and accessorial flags, then return our calculated rate instantly. Key data points that the endpoints must expose or consume include tracking numbers, current shipment status, and system-generated rate calculations. Technical expectations – JSON over HTTPS; versioned endpoints. – Token-based authentication (OAuth2 or similar). – Clear error handling and standardized response codes. – Swagger / OpenAPI 3.0 spec plus concise developer guide. – Docker-compose file for local testing against mocked Ship ERP & TMS stubs. Acceptance criteria 1. End-to-end test shows a shipment created in Ship ERP appearing in the Truck Management System within 30 seconds. 2. Rate engine returns correct tariff for three provided sample scenarios. 3. Postman collection and Swagger file match live endpoints exactly. Hand-off items: source code (preferably Node.js or Python), infrastructure notes, and any schema mappings used. Once delivered, we will own the IP outright, so please avoid dependencies that limit licensing flexibility.

Hello, I’m Muhammad Awais. I will design and deliver a real-time REST Open Logistics API that sits between Ship ERP and your in-house Truck Management System. My approach is to implement a versioned, JSON over HTTPS service with OAuth2, clear error handling, and OpenAPI 3.0 docs. I will create real-time status sync, data mapping for orders, loads and references, and a rates engine that returns tariff results for given lane, weight and flags. The solution will be containerized with Docker Compose for local testing against mock Ship ERP and TMS, with a concise developer guide and Postman collection aligned to the live endpoints. I’ll ensure end-to-end tests demonstrate a shipment created in Ship ERP appearing in the TMS within 30 seconds, and verify rate scenarios against the tariff rules you provide. The codebase will be Node.js or Python, with clean architecture, test coverage, and licensing friendly dependencies. What is your preferred authentication flow (OAuth2, JWT, or API keys) and which systems must be included in the initial test data for end-to-end validation?

Hi, this project to build a real-time REST API bridging Ship ERP and your Truck Management System aligns well with my experience integrating complex systems with reliable synchronization. The main engineering challenge here is orchestrating real-time data flows with low latency and consistent state across both platforms. I usually structure these systems with clear separation between ingestion, processing, and response layers to ensure maintainability and scalability. I've built several production APIs with OAuth2 authentication, versioned endpoints, and comprehensive OpenAPI documentation. Custom Feature Development & Integration and NYSE Day Trading Bot Development are two projects where I delivered robust, documented, and testable APIs with real-time data handling and synchronization. I recommend designing the rate engine and status update endpoints with clear error handling and fallback strategies to guarantee reliability and quick recovery. Systems I build are designed for long-term production use, with thorough documentation and test suites to enable smooth handoff and future enhancements. I can start by outlining the API design and synchronization flow, reviewing data consistency strategies, and sketching the Docker-compose testing setup. Thanks, Hercules

Hi, We’ve built similar APIs that connect multiple systems, enabling real-time data exchange and synchronization. For example, we developed a logistics platform that integrated with multiple third-party systems to manage shipments and drivers, allowing drivers to receive real-time updates and notifications. We can create a robust API that handles real-time updates, data synchronization, and rate calculations. We’ll also ensure that the API is developer-friendly with clear documentation and error handling. Let’s schedule a 10-minute call to discuss your project in more detail and see if I’m the right fit for your needs. Best regards, Adil

Hello there, I will build your middleware API — real-time shipment sync between Ship ERP and your Truck Management System, the rate engine with lane/weight/accessorial logic, and full OpenAPI 3.0 documentation with a matching Postman collection. For the 30-second sync requirement, I will implement webhook listeners on the Ship ERP side paired with a lightweight event queue. This avoids constant polling, reduces latency to near-instant propagation, and gives you a dead-letter mechanism so no shipment update is silently lost if either system is temporarily unreachable. The Docker-compose setup will include mock stubs for both platforms so your team will be able to run integration tests locally without touching production. Looking forward to potentially working together. Thanks, Kamran

Hi, I can help you You want a simple bridge that lets Ship ERP and your Truck system talk in real time. When a shipment changes, both sides update right away. Orders and loads stay the same on both sides. You also want a quick rate check: send lane, weight, extras, get the price back. Everything clear to read, tested, and easy to run locally. This will take a few days, I've been doing this type of work for years. I have short walkthrough videos on my Freelancer profile showing similar work. 1) What do you have now for Ship ERP and TMS access, test accounts, and any sample data? 2) What should the final responses look like for status, tracking, and rates?

Hi, The 30-second sync between Ship ERP and your TMS is the interesting constraint — that points to webhook events on the ERP side with a polling fallback, not pure cron. I'd build the layer in Node.js with Fastify, Postgres as the canonical store, and Redis for short-lived shipment state. For the rate engine, I'd keep tariff logic in a versioned module so accessorials and lane tweaks don't need a redeploy. OAuth2 client-credentials for tokens, Swagger 3.0 generated from the route definitions so the spec can't drift from live endpoints, and the Postman collection exported from the same source. I've shipped Node.js REST integrations of this shape before. Happy to share a sample with the OpenAPI setup and the Docker-compose mocks for the ERP/TMS stubs. One question: does Ship ERP already expose webhooks, or are we polling for status changes? Asif

This is the kind of integration where the hard part isn’t building endpoints, it’s keeping both systems from drifting out of sync when events arrive late or duplicated. I’d start by mapping Ship ERP objects into your TMS schema and locking that into an OpenAPI contract first so both sides are constrained early. Then build a thin Node.js or Python service with three parts: ingestion for shipment events, a sync layer enforcing idempotency on tracking numbers, and a rate endpoint computing tariffs from lane, weight, and accessorial flags. For real-time updates, I’d rely on Ship ERP webhooks if available, with a fallback polling job. Docker-compose would spin up mocked ERP/TMS services so your team can validate the 30-second sync requirement locally. Edge cases like duplicate status pushes or delayed updates get resolved through event versioning and timestamp checks. Does Ship ERP support webhooks, or should we default to polling?

As an experienced developer with a strong emphasis on both Node.js and Python, I am confident in my ability to meet the technical challenges outlined in your project description. I have developed and deployed numerous REST-style APIs in both languages, making me adept at handling complex data synchronization tasks across different systems in real-time. This has included features similar to what yourequire - real-time status updates and rate calculations. In addition to my technical skills, I am well-versed in delivering clean and well-documented code. I have a grasp of JSON over HTTPS and understand its importance for RESTful APIs. My experience with OAuth2 will ensure robust token-based authentication to secure all endpoints from unauthorized access. Having delivered products that have required strong data management skills, I can implement the required logical systems to uphold proper tracking numbers, current shipment status, and system-generated rate calculations reliably. Furthermore, I am familiar with Swagger / OpenAPI and its role in maintaining comprehensive developer documentation for ease of use.
