Overview

To authenticate with Shippo, you will need:
  1. API Token - A Shippo API token (live or test) that grants Nango access to your account.
Shippo issues two token types:
  • Live tokens — prefix shippo_live_, used for production.
  • Test tokens — prefix shippo_test_, used for development and testing.

Prerequisites

  • You must have a Shippo account. Sign up if you don’t have one.

Instructions

Step 1: Get your API token

  1. Log in and go to the Shippo API config page.
  2. Generate the token type that matches your use case:
    • Test token (shippo_test_...) — for development and testing, no real shipments or charges.
    • Live token (shippo_live_...) — for production, real shipments and billing apply.
  3. Copy the generated token and store it securely.

Step 2: Enter your API token in the Connect UI
