# API

To create deliveries through this method, you must consume the "create delivery" API available in our documentation. Here are direct links to that section in the form of steps:

1. [Obtener autenticación.](/developers/en/shippify-api/first-steps.md#autenticacion)
2. [Consumir el API de create delivery.](/developers/en/shippify-api/deliveries/delivery-creation.md)

This is the most recommended and commonly used method for integrating external platforms. However, it has some limitations:

* You cannot send more than 100 orders in one request.
* You cannot make more than 100 requests per minute to the API.

For these reasons, when a company starts to increase its volume, it's necessary to switch to another creation method such as [**sftp**](/developers/en/integration-guide/basic-processes/delivery-creation/sftp.md) or one [**custom**](/developers/en/integration-guide/basic-processes/delivery-creation/custom.md)**.**
