Container Tracking API

Features

• General: Add Swire as a supported carrier

Improvements

• General: The Create Reference via ACI endpoint will focus on locating an active container journey with a supported carrier and, if no active journey exists, will return the most recent journey from a supported carrier
• Hapag-Lloyd: The Create Reference via Bill of Lading endpoint will automatically prepend MBL numbers with HLCU if not present in the subscription request
• TS Lines: The API will also strip TXZJ from MBL numbers (if provided) when attempting to locate relevant container data

Bugs squashed

• General: DCSA empty_indicator value behavior adjusted for better handling of "Gate in" milestones
• General: Resolve issue with duplicated milestones in update payloads
• Heung-A: Will correctly populate origin and destination port locations
• Sinokor: Will correctly populate origin and destination port locations
• SITC: Investigate and address elevated extraction failure rate
• Yang Ming: API will correctly extract DCSA events from the carrier and only fallback to non-DCSA if those events are unavailable
