EDI and API Integrations

When it comes to your supply chain, the faster you get information, the better.

Crane Worldwide Logistics allows you to connect with our API and EDI solutions for sustainable operations with faster and more informed strategic decisions.

API (Application Programming Interface) and EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) allow different computer systems and applications to communicate and exchange information standardized and automatedly. API enables real-time data exchange between systems, while EDI facilitates the exchange of business documents in a standardized electronic format.

We know you're already considering reducing resource consumption and improving sustainability. So are we.

APIs and EDIs provide seamless connectivity between systems, reducing resource consumption and improving sustainability. They also allow real-time data visibility for shipments, orders, container tracking, document retrieval, and more.

API Integrations

An application programming interface (API) is an interface that provides programmatic access to service functionality and data within an application or a database.

Crane's growing API collection offer integration with our transportation and warehouse applications for real-time/on-demand data visibility.

Clients can register for access to our APIs. Once the registration process is complete, the client will receive a secure token to access our test and/or production APIs and can begin sending and receiving data.

EDI Integrations

EDI, or electronic data interchange, is a secure way for exchanging documents in a standard format between business partners or organizations.

Crane utilizes an industry-leading any-to-any integration application that allows us to consume and create EDI documents in various formats. With our EDI messages, clients gain visibility and predictability in this supply chain and can make more informed decisions.
