Carrier tracking

DHL eCommerce tracking API

DHL eCommerce is a standard carrier serving Global routes. Trace accepts the DHL eCommerce carrier code (dhlecommerce) and returns a normalized tracking timeline when a source provides usable data.

Use the Trace package tracking API to track DHL eCommerce shipments without integrating directly with DHL eCommerce's own systems. Send a tracking number, and Trace detects the carrier automatically where possible or accepts the code explicitly.
