# Custom

If none of the previous options are ideal for you, in this space, we'll share alternative methods that can be used to create deliveries. However, since these methods are highly customized for your company, they will incur an additional cost. 

If you want to implement one of these options, you can contact us via email at `integraciones@shippify.co` indicating the method you wish to implement. As this will involve development work, this request will take extra time to be activated.

## Creating tasks by consuming an external API

In this method, we will consume an endpoint provided by your company at regular intervals to retrieve delivery information and create them in our system.

### Required data:

* Email of your account in Shippify 
* Documentation of the endpoint 
  * URL 
  * Method Example response payload 
  * Meaning of each field in the payload 
* Authentication for the endpoint

{% hint style="info" %}
Among the data returned by this endpoint should be the following: [minimum data required](https://docs.shippify.co/developers/shippify-api/entregas/creacion-de-entregas) to create a delivery in Shippify.
{% endhint %}

## Creating a delivery through a custom API 

For this method, we will create a new endpoint to create deliveries according to your requirements. Possible requirements:

* Allow sending more than 100 requests per minute.
* Allow sending more than 100 orders per request.
* Payload with a structure different from our API.

{% hint style="info" %}
For the last case, you need to provide an example of the payload you want to send as well as the details of each field it contains.
{% endhint %}

## 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/custom.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.
