CNI API Description

The CargoStream platform will provide an extensive database of historical cargo movements for various shippers. In order to find collaboration opportunities, it is necessary to retrieve some of this information in an aggregated fashion.

After reviewing the functional requirements with all actors, we define in this document the Application Program Interface (API) needed to connect Value Added Service (VAS) providers in order that they are able to get the necessary platform data and to deliver insights back to the platform.

This document describes the high-level requirements of the API that will allow user interfaces and VAS providers to retrieve this data. The API is meant for VAS providers, but also for other members such as Logistic Service Providers (LSP), terminals and hubs. Acting in the role of VAS they can get API access.
