Set up Dash Logistics
Dash Logistics books parcels from your own Dash merchant account. Until Dash shares its API documents, KinMol emails your pickup requests and you paste the tracking number back on the order. Dash can send delivery updates to KinMol once you set the webhook.
What to have ready
- A Dash merchant account.
- The email address your Dash account uses.
- A few minutes in Dash settings to set the webhook.
Steps
Get a merchant account
Email Info@dashlogistics.com.np and ask for a merchant account.
Turn the courier on in KinMol
In KinMol, open Delivery, then Configure Dash Logistics. Tick Use this courier and enter your Dash email.
Set the webhook in Dash
Sign in to Dash and open Settings, then Webhook. Paste your webhook address (copy it in KinMol from this courier's page, under Your webhook address) and press Setup.
Set the pickup request email
Enter the address Dash asks you to send pickup requests to. KinMol emails that address when an order is ready.
Ask for API access
Ask Dash for their API documents and a sample of the webhook they send. When they arrive, enter them in the Direct connection details box and KinMol books directly.
Where each detail is found
- Merchant email
- The email address your Dash account uses.
- API secret token
- Dash account settings, when Dash gives you one.
- Merchant password
- Only if Dash asks for your email and password instead of a token.
Delivery updates
In Dash, open Settings, then Webhook. Paste your webhook address (copy it in KinMol from this courier's page, under Your webhook address) and press Setup. Dash has no secret box that we know of. A private key inside the address protects it, so keep the address to yourself.
Trying it out
Book one parcel from your Dash account using the delivery details copied from KinMol, then paste the tracking number back on the order. Check the tracking link opens.
If something goes wrong
- The webhook was not saved in Dash.
- Open Settings, then Webhook in Dash, paste the address again and press Setup. The address must be the one KinMol shows.
- The pickup request email was not sent.
- Check the pickup request email is filled in on the Dash card in KinMol.
- No tracking number appears on the order.
- Paste the tracking number from your Dash account into the order in KinMol. KinMol builds the tracking link from it.
