[FEATURE]How can i get Amazon Reference ID from sp-api

No. Neither MWS nor SP-API.

We have recently had a few LTL carriers call and say that they were unable to process requests in Carrier Central without this number. I hope amazon's dc network is not enforcing this requirement before the IT team has implemented it successfully.

We are now back to manually touching everyone of these orders multiple times. Unfortunate.

Hi Amazon Team,

This issue now is now of critical importance due to the changes with Send to Amazon replacing the Send/replenish workflow. Per the communication sent out around the change, after March 1, 2023.... one of the options is:

• 100% on API: Create, edit, and complete your shipment on Amazon Marketplace Web Service API or Selling Partner API.

However, without the Amazon Reference ID being made available in the API this is not possible. If the customer creates a new shipment via the API, they can't book a non-partnered LTL truck without the Amazon Reference ID.

To get the Amazon Reference ID the customer would need to open the shipment in SellerCentral. This converts the shipment to a Send to Amazon, which means it can no longer be edited/closed out via API. This means that starting March 1st, 2023 there is no way to develop a solution to close out non-partnered LTL shipments via API because there is no way to get the Amazon Reference ID to give to the trucking companies without using the UI .... which then converts the shipment....

Yes we would like this feature too. It is impossible to shipment NON-partnered LTL without this ref id, which right now is only available on SellerCentral.

Has anyone found a workaround or another API for getting the Amazon Reference ID?

Just wanted to mention that I also don't know how to get the Reference ID by API but you DON'T have to convert the shipment to "Send to Amazon". You can find the number already in the shipping list table in the first column.

This is a very old issue that is probably not getting as much attention as it deserves. We encourage you to check if this is still an issue after the latest release and if you find that this is still a problem, please feel free to open a new issue and make a reference to this one.

Anybody have a solution?

PS: Also, Reference ID is available into BOL, but hard to parse.

Fair warning, half of it doesn't work currently.
