Methods

• CreateLabelFromRate - When retrieving rates for shipments using the GetRatesWithShipmentDetails method, the returned information contains a RateId property that can be used to purchase a label without having to refill in the shipment information repeatedly.
• CreateLabelFromShipmentDetails - Purchase and print a label for shipment.
• GetRatesWithShipmentDetails - Given some shipment details and rate options, this method returns a list of rate quotes.
