- Gain End-to-End Visibility: Monitor cargo movements across major shipping lines, ports, terminals, and railways from a single source.
API Endpoint​
All API requests are made to the following base URL:
https://www.visiwise.co/api/v1/
API Versioning and Stability​
To ensure you always have access to the latest features and improvements, our API is unversioned and evolves continuously.
OpenAPI Specification
Visiwise provide a full OpenAPI 3.1.0 specification file. To explore Visiwise API with tools like Postman or to generate your own client library, please see our dedicated OpenAPI Specification page.
Webhooks​
Visiwise webhooks allow you to receive real-time notifications about events happening in your workspace. Instead of continuously polling the API for updates, webhooks push event data directly to your application when specific events occur, such as shipment status changes or milestone events. This enables you to build reactive integrations and automate workflows based on real-time updates.
For more information about setting up and using webhooks, see our Webhooks documentation.
