How do I embed the widget on my website?
First, you neeed a publishable API KEY. You can get this by reaching out to us at support@terminal49.com
Once you have the key, you can embed the widget on your website. We suggest creating a dedicated page for tracking, typically at company-website.com/track
. You can also embed the widget directly on your homepage. If you decide to create a dedicated tracking page, we recommend adding a h1
tag above the script. Feel free to customize the h1
contents in the script.
Copy and pase the code below and insert it on top of the page (under your page navigation if you a horizontal top navigation). Replace REPLACE_WITH_PUBLISHABLE_KEY
with the API KEY
you receive from us. We suggest adding a h1
tag above the script. Feel free to remove change the h1
contents in the script below.
To query a bill of lading, container, or reference number, simply replace REPLACE_WITH_NUMBER_TO_QUERY
with the specific number you want to search for. If data-number
exists, the query will be performed only once.
