Loads

Create tender

Tender a load to Loadsmart. The load could be either a spot or contracted one. If the endpoint returns a successful status code, it means that we have received the load.

In order to see if the load was accepted or rejected, you must listen for the load:accepted and load:rejected webhooks, respectively. See Load Webhooks section.

Important: the uuid returned identifies a load uniquely in Loadsmart systems. This means that, for two or more responses, if they contain the same uuid, they are related to the exact same load.

Quotes that have been created using the /quote endpoint can be booked with the tender endpoint if the quote_id parameter, provided by the Create Quote endpoint, is sent.
