DX Integration

Laura Foster
Hello all,
We are going to do some digging into this to see if it is something we can support.
We will provide further feedback in due course, likely to be late next week (W/C 28/04/2025).
Thanks

Any update on this? We are using DX Express and would benefit from having this integration. DX Freight and Express are run independently and have separate API's

Hey Neil,
We've been taking a look at this, but have not been able to find exactly how to integrate Express/what is different between the two APIs, as Express is not documented online as far as we can see.
I believe this is because DX Express is more specialized, and so to learn about how to integrate with it you have to reach out to DX via your account manager to get the details.
Would it be possible for you to contact your account manager at DX to see about getting an API Specification for DX Express?
Feel free to CC me/pop me an email.
Thanks!

My understand was that we supported DX's API's, but are we saying that there is a different API for 'Freight' and 'Express'. I'm guessing that Freight is the bikes service?

Neil McQuillan - CEO Citrus-Lime: Hi Neil, yes that sounds correct. DX freight is a separate entity to Express.
Neil McQuillan - CEO Citrus-Lime
Mark Rose: Are you able to provide the API documentation and confirm it’s different? It might just be possible to add the additional services. It would be odd if they have a completely separate API.

Neil McQuillan - CEO Citrus-Lime Hi Neil. Has anything progressed with this since the exchanges in 2023?

Steve Edgell I shall find out.

DX freight has an integration, but DX Express does not. We are very seriously looking at this as an alternative to DPD for parcels, but without integration it's a non-starter.
