CARRIER INTEGRATION / BETA / SHOPIFY AND DESKTOP
Kolay Gelsin Integration: Formerly Sendeo, Automatic Shipments
Kolay Gelsin (formerly Sendeo) integration (beta): orders are shipped with your own API user and the reference barcode prints on your label.
FREE PLAN · NO CREDIT CARD · WINDOWS / MAC / LINUX / WEB
The Kolay Gelsin (formerly Sendeo) integration connects your own agreement with Kolay Gelsin to LabelInn. For every paid Shopify order the shipment is created at Kolay Gelsin automatically, the tracking number and the Kolay Gelsin barcode print on your shipping label, and the tracking number is written back to the order. You pay Kolay Gelsin for postage under your agreement, not LabelInn.
Beta. Built from Kolay Gelsin's official documentation; its server refuses a wrong login correctly. Create, track and cancel are not yet proven with a real account. We are proving it with the first stores that connect; if something fails, the order waits unshipped and the reason shows in the panel.
01 / ACCOUNT
What you need from Kolay Gelsin
A Kolay Gelsin (formerly Sendeo) API user, created at sube.kolaygelsin.com with the phone number your sales contact registered. Shipments are created under your own agreement and prices.
The connect form asks for:
- API customer code: Create an API user at sube.kolaygelsin.com. For tests Kolay Gelsin gives the password of its shared TEST customer by e-mail (entegrasyon@kolaygelsin.com).
- API password
02 / STEPS
What LabelInn does, step by step
Map your shipping methods. "Standard: Kolay Gelsin", "Express: another carrier", "Store pickup: do not ship". Pick a default carrier for every other method.
The order is paid, the shipment is created. LabelInn sends the order's address, phone and parcel details to Kolay Gelsin; the shipment is created in your own account.
The label prints with the barcode. The tracking number, the Kolay Gelsin barcode and the carrier name fill in on your shipping label, which prints on the thermal printer you choose or on an A4 sheet.
Tracking goes back to Shopify. Once you approve the new permission, the order is marked fulfilled with the tracking number; until then the number goes into the order note.
03 / DETAILS
Details of the Kolay Gelsin connection
Carrier servers refuse orders over small rules. These are the ones LabelInn already handles for Kolay Gelsin:
- Formerly Sendeo. Kolay Gelsin still uses the same API.
- A refused login is never retried. Kolay Gelsin blocks an account after many wrong logins, so LabelInn does not retry a refused one.
- Province and district are matched. Kolay Gelsin wants its own province and district ids; LabelInn matches the address against Kolay Gelsin's list.
- Cash on delivery is supported up to 5,000 TRY.
- You print the barcode. Kolay Gelsin scans the reference number on your label at pickup; if it returns its own label too, LabelInn keeps it.
- Cancel: only while the parcel has not been collected.

| Cash on delivery | yes |
| Cancel | yes |
| Tracking | yes |
| Multi-piece | yes |

04 / LABEL
What is on the label
The label at the top of this page is drawn by the LabelInn Shopify app's 100 × 150 mm shipping template with a sample order: sender, recipient and address, shipping method, items, carrier name, tracking number and the Code 128 barcode the carrier scans. The number in the barcode is a sample; the real one is created once your Kolay Gelsin account is connected. The customer details are sample data.
You can change the template in the LabelInn designer, add your logo, and print on 4 × 6 in, A6 or an A4 sheet. Tracking number, cargo barcode and carrier are ready-made fields you can bind into your own design.
05 / CHANNELS
Where the Kolay Gelsin integration works
You set up the Kolay Gelsin connection once; whichever way an order comes in, it goes to the same account.
- Shopify: in the Shipping tab of the LabelInn Shopify app you map your shipping methods to carriers. Every paid order is shipped automatically and the tracking number goes back to Shopify. Shopify carrier integration →
- Desktop app: in the new version of LabelInn, Settings > Cargo companies connects, tests and sets the default for the same carrier accounts.
- Automations (coming): the same shipment step for every row from Excel, Google Sheets, a database or an API. In the automation editor the "Create a cargo shipment" step is still marked "coming soon".
06 / SECURITY
Your password and your IP address
- Passwords are stored encrypted and never shown again. Not in the panel, not in the app; to change one you enter a new one.
- Requests can leave from your own PC. If Kolay Gelsin whitelists an IP address for integrations, the carrier requests can be sent by your own computer with LabelInn open (new desktop version, Settings > Cargo). The carrier sees your own IP; no server IP to register.
- One order never ships twice. The key sent to the carrier is fixed per order; if a request is cut off, LabelInn first asks whether the shipment was created.
