PPL.cz Shopify integration

If you ship a large volume of parcels and want to automate the process of sending shipments via PPL, an API integration is the ideal solution. This article will guide you through the essential steps — from registration and obtaining API credentials to successfully sending your first shipment through the PPL provider in our app for Shopify stores.

1. What You’ll Need

To connect to the API and print labels, you must have:

  • Access to MyGLS

  • An active contract with MyGLS

  • API Credentials (contact your account manager)

  • A paid FULL plan

To display the Pickup Points widget, you must have:

  • A paid LITE or FULL plan

2. Registration and Access to the API

To use the PPL API, you must have a business contract with PPL.

  1. If you don’t have an account yet, contact PPL sales or support via email: [email protected]

  2. Once your account is active, PPL will provide you with credentials to access their API

  3. You will then need to request access to the API and obtain the following credentials:

    • Client ID

    • Client Secret

3. Create a PPL provider

Once you have your API credentials ready:

  1. In the app, go to Providers > Add Provider

  2. Choose PPL as the carrier type

  3. Fill in the required fields:

    • Client ID

    • Client Secret

  4. Map the provider to the correct shipping rates:

    • If you haven’t created shipping rates for PPL yet, follow this guide:
      👉 Configure shipping rates for carrier integration

    • If you already have PPL shipping rates set up:

      • In the Home Delivery section, select the shipping rates that will use PPL

      • Assign the appropriate service, e.g. PPL Private (B2C)

      • If you're using pickup points, make sure to also select the relevant rates in the Pickup Points section to enable pickup point selection for customers

  5. Set the provider as active

  6. Save the provider

4. Activate and Configure the Pickup Point Widget
