Container Tracking API
New features
- Added tracking support for Emirates Shipping Line (ESL), Samudera Shipping Line, Turkon Line and Unifeeder. Samudera Shipping Line references can also be tracked by container number alone.
- Yang Ming Last Free Date information (ramp and terminal) is now published as "Free time to expire" milestones.
Bugs squashed
- Restored tracking updates for KMTC, which were interrupted in late October.
- Fixed a spike in failed tracking updates for Hapag-Lloyd.
- Fixed Hapag-Lloyd rail gate-outs at New York that were reported as a generic truck gate-out with no full/empty indicator.
- Auto Carrier Identification no longer stops early when a container isn't found at Maersk, Sealand, Hamburg Süd or Sinotrans; it now goes on to check other carriers.
- Fixed Matson transshipments where the second leg used the wrong vessel, which could add incorrect vessel port calls. Milestones now carry the actual vessel for each leg.
- Fixed Yang Ming shipments where a transshipment port could be reported as the port of discharge, dropping the second ocean leg.
- Fixed OOCL shipments where the inland origin could be set to the destination port, and where the planned vessel departure (ETD) could drop off after a truck move at the origin port.
- Fixed COSCO shipments that could show a second "Gate out from destination port" after the container had already left the port.
- Fixed Evergreen shipments where repositioning within a transshipment port could mark the onward vessel departure as actual too early, and where a container received at the port of loading could be reported as a transshipment discharge.
- Fixed missing container ISO codes on Hyundai Merchant Marine (HMM) references tracked by container number or Auto Carrier Identification.
- Bill of lading references for Teamglobal Logistics now return container data, including for house bills of lading.
- Restored terminal updates for the Port of Houston, which had stopped returning data for most containers.
- Fixed GCT terminal updates that could include events with empty values.
POST /referencesnow applies the documented default forwebhooks[].sourceswhen it's omitted, and invalid webhook values return a descriptive validation error instead of an empty 422 response.- Validation error messages for enum fields now list only the accepted values.
