Overview

Phinite’s ShipStation predefined tool lets workspace assistants call ShipStation APIs through DevStudio after you save a connection under Integrations → Predefined tools. Manage ShipStation shipping and fulfillment — orders, shipments and labels, carriers, products, customers, warehouses, stores, and fulfillments via the ShipStation V1 API.
Predefined tools require a saved connection before they appear in Graph Studio’s tool picker. See Predefined Tools in GraphStudio.
