API

Why choose for ECT’s Import Container Status API?

No one offers more up-to-date information on your container's status than a terminal operator. Our API guarantees you're always informed about the current status and any possible blockages, from the moment it's expected to when it's ready for pickup. Moreover, we offer an Estimated Discharge Time for each import container, based on the discharge sequence. This allows you to plan your logistics more efficiently, without having to wait for the entire discharge process to complete.

What data will I have access to?

  • Container Information (e.g. type, length, height)
  • Container Status (e.g operator, full/empty, VGM, IMO, OOG)
  • Expected / Present / Departed
  • Terminal (Delta / Euromax)
  • Subterminal Delta (DDN / DDE)
  • Type of blocks
  • Documents present, documents number etc.
  • Expected truck zone
  • Arrival object name
  • Time of Discharge and Departure
  • Estimated Discharge Time EDT as add-on

What are the costs?

A fixed monthly rate with no initial connection fees. Access to the Premium version of ECT’s online platform MyTerminal is included.
