====== Delivery Note Add/Update API ======
===== What is the Delivery Note Add/Update API? =====
The **Delivery Note Add/Update API** allows you to add or update delivery notes for your orders.
===== Who Should Use this API? =====
This API is intended to be used in white label business model approach where you want to be in control of the delivery note that is inserted in the transport box.
===== Try it Out =====
Do you have questions about how your server should add or update delivery notes for your orders? Visiting our demo page will help you out.
We’ve developed a sandbox server, which is an isolated server (not hooked up to a payment system or production environment, allowing you to test the service without getting billed) to try out your code and integration with us. As the sandbox server is an isolated server, it requires different credentials than the production site.
**The demo page of Delivery Note Add/Update API on sandbox server:**
https://imatsandbox.materialise.net/api/demo/documents-add-update-api.htm
The sandbox and production server contain API demo pages which send well-formed API requests to our site.

===== How Does it Work? =====
This API requires the personal API code. It is therefore not possible to use AJAX requests.
The **Delivery Note Add/Update API** works by posting data to our service.
You can use either XML or JSON formats for posting. The HTTP encoding type of a particular request depends on the type of API you are going to use. This will be described in the corresponding section of this page.
To specify the exact content type which your client can accept and parse, the Accept header in your request has to be set to one of the following encoding types:
• text/json\\
• application/json \\
• text/xml\\
• application/xml \\
To add/update Delivery Note for an order through the **Delivery Note Add/Update API**, POST a well-structured request via “HTTPS” to this URL:
https://i.materialise.com/web-api/order/[Order ID]/delivery-note
To use APIs of the sandbox, the POST needs to be submitted to:
https://imatsandbox.materialise.net/web-api/order/[Order ID]/delivery-note
The API code needs to be specified in the ''APICode'' HTTP header.
The Delivery Note add/update should be done using POST HTTP Method:
Request Method:POST
You should create HTTP multipart request to be able add/update Delivery Note file. HTTP multipart request is a type of HTTP request that HTTP clients construct to send file and data over to the server side.
