Question: Test Server and creating a pickup #139

Closed GinnieMorrison closed 4 years ago

GinnieMorrison commented 4 years ago

This package has been a life saver! (I did not want to/really have time to learn suds...) I'm trying to test out creating a pickup using my test credentials on the test server but I'm receiving a fedex.base_service.FedexError: Authentication Failed (Error code: 1000) when I try to pickup_service.send_request(). The 'funny' thing is that I am able to create a shipment with the same credentials in the same script. Same thing is occurring with using the package's example script. Does FedEx not support creating a pickup on their test servers? I'd really like to test this out before it's deployed and without worrying about having a FedEx man sent to the middle of nowhere if my cancel pickup request subsequently fails...

You need to have FedEx activate this for your account key.
