Handle Daylight Transport shipments through one Unified API

If Daylight Transport is part of your shipping mix, ShipPeek gives your team one place to request enabled rates, bookings, tracking, labels, and documents. You keep ShipPeek's Unified API; ShipPeek handles the carrier-specific codes, credentials, mappings, and response differences.

Carrier-specific handling

What ShipPeek handles for Daylight Transport

ShipPeek is not asking your team to buy a standalone Daylight Transport API. Daylight Transport runs as an enabled carrier workflow inside ShipPeek's Unified API, with carrier-specific setup, mapping, and response handling kept behind one contract.

Carrier setup

01

Use DYLT and your enabled carrier-account configuration from one place instead of hardcoding Daylight Transport rules into every product workflow.

Workflow mapping

02

ShipPeek maps Daylight Transport rates, tracking events, bookings, labels, and documents into normalized objects where those workflows are enabled.

Operational accountability

03

Carrier responses and exceptions come back through the Unified API so your team can tell whether an issue is credentials, lane/service eligibility, missing documents, or carrier-side availability.

Carrier workflows

What you can do with Daylight Transport in ShipPeek

Capabilities are enabled per account and carrier configuration, so this page shows the Daylight Transport workflows ShipPeek can route through the Unified API — not a promise that every lane or service is available for every account.

01

Tracking

Daylight Transport tracking events come back in the same shipment status model you use across every supported carrier.

02

Rates

Request eligible Daylight Transport rates without creating a carrier-specific quoting path.

03

Documents

Pull BOLs, delivery receipts, and other shipment documents into normalized workflows.

Integration model

One API contract, Daylight Transport-aware routing

Keep ShipPeek's Unified API as the integration surface. Use carrier identifier dylt to route eligible workflows to Daylight Transport; ShipPeek keeps carrier-specific request fields, credentials, and response mappings out of your product code.

  • Track Daylight Transport shipments and status events without portal checks
  • Request eligible Daylight Transport rates through the Unified API
  • Pull Daylight Transport BOLs and delivery documents into your system
  • Keep Daylight Transport inside the same API contract as the rest of your carriers

Unified API example

curl "https://api.shippeek.com/track/123456789?carrier=dylt" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN"

The carrier identifier selects an enabled workflow. It does not create a separate Daylight Transport product surface; ShipPeek's Unified API remains the contract.

How it works

How a Daylight Transport request moves through ShipPeek

Send one request

01

Your app sends a standard ShipPeek request for the workflow it needs and includes Daylight Transport only when that carrier should handle the shipment.

Apply carrier setup

02

ShipPeek uses the enabled Daylight Transport configuration, including carrier identifier dylt, credentials, and available workflow rules.

Translate the response

03

Carrier rates, tracking events, labels, or documents are mapped back into ShipPeek's normalized fields where available.

Act on one model

04

Your team gets a consistent response shape with enough carrier context to route support, exceptions, and downstream automation.

FAQ

Questions about Daylight Transport

How does ShipPeek support Daylight Transport?

ShipPeek supports Daylight Transport as a carrier workflow inside the ShipPeek Unified API. It is not a separate Daylight Transport-only product or an official Daylight Transport-owned API; enabled capabilities depend on your account, region, credentials, and carrier permissions.

Can I track Daylight Transport shipments?

Yes. ShipPeek normalizes Daylight Transport tracking events into the same shipment status model used across supported carriers, so operations and support teams are not forced back into a carrier portal for every update.

Can ShipPeek get Daylight Transport rates?

Yes, where your carrier account, lane, service, and credentials are enabled. The request still uses ShipPeek's Unified API; ShipPeek handles the carrier-specific mapping.

Can ShipPeek create Daylight Transport bookings?

Booking is not currently listed for this carrier profile. Contact ShipPeek to review whether this workflow can be enabled through the Unified API.

Can I get Daylight Transport labels or documents?

ShipPeek can return Daylight Transport BOLs, delivery receipts, or carrier documents where available through enabled Unified API workflows.

What does ShipPeek handle for Daylight Transport?

For enabled workflows, ShipPeek handles the Unified API contract, carrier identifier, request and response mapping, status normalization, and document workflow shape. Carrier acceptance, service availability, rates, and document availability still depend on Daylight Transport and your carrier account setup.

Is ShipPeek an official Daylight Transport API?

No. ShipPeek is a unified logistics API platform that connects to supported carrier integrations. ShipPeek is not Daylight Transport or a Daylight Transport-owned API.

Ready to bring this carrier into one workflow?

Use ShipPeek's Unified API for Daylight Transport without making Daylight Transport a one-off integration.

Bring enabled rates, tracking, booking, labels, and documents into one carrier-aware API contract, with ShipPeek handling the carrier-specific differences behind the scenes.

What ShipPeek helps centralize

  • One integration surface for enabled Daylight Transport rating, tracking, booking, and documents
  • Carrier codes, credentials, status mappings, and exception handling behind the Unified API
  • A path to add more carriers without copying the Daylight Transport implementation
