GLS Netherlands Track and Trace API

Read API for parcel status and proof of delivery in the GLS Netherlands network. Three documented operations — POST /api/parcel/v1/details, POST /api/parcel/v1/search and POST /api/pod/v1 — return parcel event history, address data, dimensions, weight, product, state/substate, ETA and a tracking URI, plus proof-of-delivery documents. Complemented by two customer-registered push webhooks (parcel events and signature/proof-of-delivery PNG) that GLS POSTs to a URL the customer supplies out of band; there is no self-service subscription endpoint. An OpenAPI 3.0.1 definition is anonymously exportable, and a test environment is published at https://api.gls.nl/tt-test.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of GLS Netherlands Track and Trace API, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.

The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
