# 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)**.**

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.shippify.co/developers/en/integration-guide/basic-processes/delivery-creation/api.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
