TrackingMCP

Where every container is, and when it will really arrive.

Base URL

https://api.trackingmcp.com

Authentication

Authorization: Bearer tmcp_…

Keys carry the tmcp_ prefix. See the authentication guide.

Responses wrap in { "ok": true, … }. On a bad reference the API answers { "ok": false, "message": "…" } with a helpful hint (it even suggests the corrected check digit).

OpenAPI spec Import the spec into Postman or Insomnia, or generate a typed client with openapi-generator.
