What you can automate

What does the Ship24 - Order Tracking Make integration do?

The Ship24 - Order Tracking Make integration links your Ship24 account to Make so a scenario (the automation you build in Make, a chain of modules) can create shipment trackers and read their results for you. Each module is one brick of that chain, and none of them needs code.

Every shipped order gets a tracker. Your store or order tool starts the scenario, then Create a tracker registers the parcel in Ship24 so nobody copies tracking numbers by hand.

Support answers with the live status. A customer question comes in, Get tracking results by tracking number reads where the parcel is, and the next module drops that answer into your helpdesk or chat tool.

Open shipments refresh on a schedule. A scenario that runs every 15 minutes by default loops over stored tracker IDs with Get tracking results by tracker ID and updates your order sheet.

Two limits to keep in mind. Ship24 has no trigger in Make, so the start always comes from another app or from the scenario schedule. And Make flags its own Ship24 doc as AI-generated content that may contain mistakes, so test each module before trusting it. If you are new to the editor, the Make training covers the basics, and Make troubleshooting helps when a run fails.

The same app often has an n8n node too. The n8n vs Make comparison lays out how the two tools differ.

Connect

How do you connect Ship24 - Order Tracking to Make?

  1. 01

    Copy your Ship24 API key

    Log in to Ship24, open the dashboard, click Integrations, then API keys, and copy the key shown on screen. Ship24 asks for an active account on a subscribed plan before it gives you one.

  2. 02

    Add a Ship24 module in Make

    In your scenario, add any Ship24 - Order Tracking module and click Create a connection. A connection is your Ship24 account linked to Make once, then reused by every Ship24 module.

  3. 03

    Paste the key and save

    Give the connection a name in Connection name if you like (it is optional, but helps when you run several accounts), paste the API key, and follow the on-screen instructions to finish.

First scenario

Your first scenario with Ship24 - Order Tracking

GoalWhen an order ships in your store app, Make creates a Ship24 tracker for its parcel.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    Go to the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the + to add the first module. Here, pick the module of the app where your shipped orders live.

  2. 02

    Add Create a tracker

    Click the + on the right of that first module, search for Ship24 - Order Tracking and choose Create a tracker. Select the connection you made earlier.

  3. 03

    Map the order data

    Fill the fields Make shows once the connection exists, and map the tracking number from the previous module. A bundle is one item passing between modules, here one shipped order.

  4. 04

    Test with Run once

    Click Run once to execute the scenario a single time, then open the bubble above each module to read the bundles it received. Check the tracker appears in Ship24.

  5. 05

    Schedule and switch on

    Set the schedule on the first module (every 15 minutes by default, never below 15 on the Free plan) and switch the scenario on. Each module run on a bundle counts as one operation.

Modules

What the 8 Ship24 - Order Tracking modules do

Ship24 - Order Tracking gives you 8 modules. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

Ship24 - Order Tracking1

Create a tracker

ActionIn the docs only

Registers a shipment in Ship24 so the parcel gets followed from that point, without pulling any results in the same step.

When to use it
an order leaves the warehouse and you only want Ship24 to start watching it, reading the status later in another scenario.
Watch out
make sure the step before it sends one bundle per parcel, otherwise the same shipment may end up with several trackers.
Ship24 - Order Tracking2

Create a tracker and get tracking results

ActionIn the docs only

Two jobs in one module: the tracker is created and the tracking results come back in the same run, ready to map into the next module.

When to use it
a customer asks where an order is and you want both the follow-up and an immediate answer for your support reply.
Watch out
the doc lists no fields for it, so click Run once on a real tracking number and read the bundle before mapping anything downstream.
Ship24 - Order Tracking3

Get a list of all couriers

ActionIn the docs only

Returns the couriers Ship24 knows, which gives your scenario a reference list instead of carrier names typed by hand.

When to use it
you keep a lookup table in a spreadsheet so that every order carries a courier name Ship24 recognizes.
Watch out
run it once before adding the next module and see how many bundles come out, since each bundle processed downstream counts as an operation on your plan.
Ship24 - Order Tracking4

Get tracking results by tracker ID

ActionIn the docs only

Fetches the latest results of a tracker your scenario created earlier, using its ID rather than the carrier's number.

When to use it
your order sheet stores a tracker ID per shipment and a scheduled scenario refreshes every open parcel.
Watch out
keep that ID somewhere the scenario can read it back, such as a spreadsheet row, and map it from there instead of typing it into the field.
Ship24 - Order Tracking5

Get tracking results by tracking number

ActionIn the docs only

Only have the carrier's tracking number? This module reads the results straight from it, with no tracker ID to store anywhere.

When to use it
a form where customers paste their number sends it to Make, and the reply tells them where the parcel is.
Watch out
the doc does not explain how it differs from the live search version, so run both once on the same number and compare the bundles.
Ship24 - Order Tracking7

Make an API Call

ActionIn the docs only

Opens the rest of the Ship24 API to your scenario and reuses the connection you already set up, so no second login is needed.

When to use it
you need an endpoint that none of the seven other modules covers.
Watch out
you write the request yourself, so keep the Ship24 API documentation open, and remember the Make summary of this app is AI-generated and may contain mistakes.
Ship24 - Order Tracking8

Update an existing tracker

ActionIn the docs only

Changes a tracker already in Ship24 instead of creating a second one for the same parcel.

When to use it
the details first sent to Ship24 turn out to be wrong after the order has shipped, and the tracker needs correcting.
Watch out
the doc does not say which details can change; open the module, look at the fields Make displays once the connection exists, and test with Run once.

FAQ

Ship24 - Order Tracking and Make: common questions

01Is the Ship24 - Order Tracking Make integration free?
Yes on the Make side: Ship24 - Order Tracking is a standard app, available from the Free plan. That plan allows 2 active scenarios, a minimum of 15 minutes between scheduled runs, 5 minutes of execution per run, files up to 5 MB and 512 MB of data transfer. Paid plans drop the interval to 1 minute and remove the cap on active scenarios. Ship24 itself is another matter: its doc requires an active account with a subscribed plan, so check the Ship24 pricing page for that part.
02What do you need to connect Ship24 - Order Tracking to Make?
An active Ship24 account on a subscribed plan, and the API key that comes with it. You find the key in the Ship24 dashboard under Integrations, then API keys. In Make, add any Ship24 module, click Create a connection, optionally type a connection name, and paste the key. The connection is then shared by all 8 modules of the app, so you only do this once per Ship24 account. Nothing else is required on the Make side.
03Does Ship24 - Order Tracking trigger Make scenarios in real time?
No, because the app has no trigger module in Make: all 8 modules are actions. A scenario that uses Ship24 starts in one of two ways. Either another app opens the flow, for example the trigger of your store or order tool, instant if that app calls Make through a webhook, or scheduled if Make checks it. Or you put a schedule on the first module: every 15 minutes by default, 15 minutes at the shortest on the Free plan and 1 minute on paid plans.
04What if a Ship24 - Order Tracking module is missing in Make?
Use Make an API Call. It sends any request to the Ship24 API with the connection you already created, so an endpoint the other seven modules do not cover is still reachable. You write the request yourself, which means keeping the Ship24 API documentation at hand. Also keep in mind that Make marks its Ship24 doc as AI-generated and possibly wrong: when a module behaves oddly, test it with Run once and check the vendor documentation before blaming your mapping.
05Should you use Make or n8n for Ship24 - Order Tracking?
It depends on where your other automations already run. On Make, Ship24 brings 8 ready-made modules, a Make an API Call module for the rest, and a Free plan with 2 active scenarios to try it. The same app often has an n8n node too, so the fair test is simple: list the tracking steps you need, check which tool covers them with ready modules, and build a first scenario in the one your team already uses.
