Use C2W Package Tracking API to retrieve GOFO shipment information through RapidAPI. The documented endpoint accepts a tracking number and returns JSON for your application. Webhooks are not supported.
How to request GOFO tracking
- Subscribe on RapidAPI and keep your credentials on your server.
- Send your shipment’s tracking number as
trackingNumbertoGET /TrackingPackage. - Check the HTTP response before reading tracking fields. Use the API reference for headers and schema.
curl --get 'https://trackingpackage.p.rapidapi.com/TrackingPackage' \
--data-urlencode 'trackingNumber=YOUR_TRACKING_NUMBER' \
--header 'X-RapidAPI-Key: YOUR_RAPIDAPI_KEY' \
--header 'X-RapidAPI-Host: trackingpackage.p.rapidapi.com'Add an Authorization header only if it was issued for your integration. This example uses a placeholder; it does not query a real shipment.
Illustrative response, not a live shipment
This synthetic subset illustrates documented field names. It is not a recorded GOFO response or a guarantee that every shipment supplies these values.
{
"TrackingNumber": "YOUR_TRACKING_NUMBER",
"Carrier": "GOFO",
"Delivered": false,
"Status": "In transit"
}See authentication and error handling. Keep credentials server-side and treat network failures separately from shipment status.
Plan polling and cost before subscribing
Webhooks are not supported. Your application schedules requests and customer notifications. Results may be cached; a successful call does not imply a new carrier scan.
Example: 25 active shipments checked four times per day use 100 requests, before retries and manual refreshes. The Pro plan includes 150 requests/day at $9.99/month, leaving 50 requests of headroom. This is a workload example, not a recommended polling interval.
The free plan includes 5 requests/day for evaluation. Space requests within the rate limit and stop routine polling when your workflow is complete. Compare plans and request budgets; confirm applicable terms in RapidAPI.
Evaluate GOFO data for your actual shipment routes.
Confirm which event and location fields are available for your own GOFO shipments. A missing event history does not establish that a parcel is lost. Keep the last known shipment state when a refresh fails, and deduplicate customer notifications against stored events.
Read our alternative last-mile carrier overview for carrier-reported network context. Coverage and C2W field availability must be evaluated separately.
Fields to consider in your application
| Field | Application handling |
|---|---|
Status | Preserve the returned status text. |
Delivered | Do not infer delivery from missing data. |
TrackingDetails | Handle absent or empty event history. |
Available values depend on the shipment and carrier data. Empty strings, null values, and absent fields should not break your interface. These are schema notes, not a recorded GOFO production response.
Before going live
Test delivered, in-transit, unavailable-data, and exception cases for your services. Establish your polling schedule, request headroom, and support process. Use our integration guide and request-budget examples.
