Overview
The REST API provide programmatic access to read and write Ekopost data. Create a new campaign, envelope, scheduele print & distribution, and more. The REST API identifies applications and users using Basic Authentication; responses are available in JSON.
Package for .NET Framework available
If you're using .NET Framework you can download and install our nuget package directly, see the section Tools for more information.
Sandbox - For Developers
During development and testing we recommend using our Sandbox Environment, see the section Sandbox for more information
Format
The REST API is only using JSON; all requests body should be in JSON and all responses will be JSON. Make
sure you set Request.Header.Content-Type to “application/json”.
Sample Request (RAW)
Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8;
Encoding
UTF8 is the encoding that should be used at all times.
Authorization
The API supports basic, api-key and Oauth2 client credentials authorization, and all requests must be authorized at all times.
You can use a valid api-key, bearer token or a base64 encoded string based on your user credentials to build the authorize header value. We recommend that you always use the api-key or Oauth2 approach over the base64 encoded string, you can create/revoke/reactive/remove api-keys with ease while using the base64 approach your integrations may fail if the password of the used account would ever be changed.
Using an api-key
Set the Request.Header.Authorization value to “api-key key”, to get your key you need to
generate a new API key after you've signed in to your account, you'll be able to generate and manage your
API keys from the account/api section.
Sample Request (RAW)
Authorization: api-key YiuyotGtRNDXik56lgq6
Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8
Using Oauth2 with client credentials
First contact hejsan@ekopost.se to request a client_id and a client_secret
When customer has a client_id and a client_secret, these need to be base64 encoded and sent to the API via POST to receive an access token which is used for subsequent calls. The base64 encoded string should be created from a string formatted like: "client_id:client_secret".
Create the base64 encoding to be used, replace client_id and client_secret with real values and make sure there are no trailing newlines and that the string is encoded literally
Then set the Request.Header.Authorization value to “Basic base64encodedString
Sample Request (RAW)
POST https://api.ekopost.se/auth
Authorization: Basic dXNlcm5gaGO6cGFzc3dvctE=
Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8
Sample Response
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8
{
"access_token": "INKJ8ABgVeNIcp9MsuTIXO8QJtBiFE677h2hgcB1USVIY8KadBJ_faNrdKulFs",
"token_type": "bearer",
"expires_in": 28800
}
An access_token is valid for up to 8 hours. A new access_token can be requested any time. If a request to the API is issued with a non valid access_token a http-response with the HTTP-header 401 is returned such as HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized. With the use of a valid access_token request to the API can be done as the example below.
Sample Request with bearer (RAW)
Authorization: Bearer INKJ8ABgVeNIcp9MsuTIXO8QJtBiFE677h2hgcB1USVIY8KadBJ_faNrdKulFs
Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8
Using a base64 string
Set the Request.Header.Authorization value to “Basic auth_token”, auth_token should be
replaced with a base64 encoded string formatted like: "username:password", where username is your username
and password is your password.
Sample Request (RAW)
Authorization: Basic dXNlcm5hbWU6cGFzc3dvcmQ=
Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8
Error handling
All handled errors will result in bad request (code: 400) and the body will contain an error object for debugging and development purpose with further information how to validate the request, you can see a list of error codes in the section Error under Error code values.
Resources not found will result in not found (code: 404) and any unhandled exception will return internal error (code: 500).
Quick start
To send an envelope you must first create a campaign, then an envelope within that campaign, then create a content (read: upload a document/attachment) within that envelope, once this is done you'll have to close both the campaign and the envelope/s to mark them as ready for production, each envelope in the campaign will be printed & distributed as an individual postal item, the items will be printed & distributed on the campaign output date.
To schedule print and distribution of a envelope - follow these steps (all requests must be authorized).

Limitations
The Content object field named data must be a PDF version 1.4, support for later versions does exist, but printing quality nor result can not be guaranteed without testing. We always recommend that you send your self a copy of the documents you'll be sending to inspect the result, any deviations should be reported to our support team.

5 step walkthrough
Initialization
Setting up the Ekopost class to target your account.
In order to integrate with Ekopost you must first provide an API key that is linked to your account, this key can be found in the portal https://secure.ekopost.se. Once you have your key you can use it as a parameter to instantiate an Ekopost object as seen in [CODE EXAMPLE 1] below
[CODE EXAMPLE 1] -initialize
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
using Ekopost.Contracts;
.
.
.
1 var eko = new Ekopost.Ekopost("apikeystring");
.
.
.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Now when we have an Ekopost object, [eko], there are 3 important functions to note:
eko.CampaignSet.Create();
eko.EnvelopeSet.Create(Guid campaignId);
eko.ContentSet.Create(Guid campaignId, Guid envelopeId);
In this tutorial we will go through each of the objects created by these functions with example of how to use them and in the process we will have scheduled our first mail for delivery using the Ekopost nuget package.
Content can be thought of as the letter that you wish to send. That letter needs to be put in an envelope and a campaign can contain multiple envelopes. When we code this using the nuget package we do it in reverse and create the campaign first, then the envelope and finally the content. Lets get started with the campaign
Campaign
[CODE EXAMPLE 2] -create a new campaign
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
.
.
.
1 var newCampaign = new Campaign("myFirstCampaign","", DateTime.Now.AddHours(2));
2
3 var campaignSet = eko.CampaignSet.Create();
4
5 var registeredCampaign = campaignSet
6 .Create(newCampaign)
7 .Resource;
.
.
.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
first we create a campaign object on line 1. In the example it has been given a name [myFirstCampaign], providing a blank cost center and schedules the send outs to two hours from now.
Next we use the first function mentioned above to create a CampaignSet object, this is what we use when we want to manipulate campaigns.
Note that no interaction with Ekopost has yet occurred, on the line 6 however an API call is made by calling the Create() function campaignSet. This function return a wrapper object with metadata on the API call, the Resource property contains the registered campaign. We are interested in the returned campaign object because it contains an Id that needs to be referenced in our next step.
Envelope
[CODE EXAMPLE 3] -create a new Envelope
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
.
.
.
1 var postalAddress = new AddressPostal(
2 new[] { "Johnny Doh" },
3 new[] { "Ekovägen 12" },
4 "43215",
5 "Ekostaden",
6 "SE");
7 var envelope = new Envelope("firstLetter", postalAddress, Postage.Economy, Plex.Simplex, false);
8 var envelopeSet = eko.EnvelopeSet.Create(registeredCampaign.Id);
9 var registeredEnvelope = envelopeSet
10 .Create(envelope)
11 .Resource;
.
.
.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
an envelope needs a destination, so we start by making an address object on line 1-6. There are multiple address types however this tutorial covers only a postal address type. Now when we have an address we can use it as a parameter when creating an envelope as is seen on line 7. Once again we create a Set item (line 8), this time the EnvelopeSet, so that we can manipulate envelopes in Ekopost, note that we need to use the Id of the campaign item [registeredCampaign] we received in [CODE EXAMPLE 2]. Just like before we make an API call and register our envelope with Ekopost via the Create() method on line 9-11.
Content
[CODE EXAMPLE 4] -create a new Content
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
.
.
.
1 var content = new Content(ContentType.Document, "~path/to/file/on/disk/aletter.pdf");
2 var contentSet = eko.ContentSet.Create(registeredCampaign.Id, registeredEnvelope.Id);
3 contentSet.Create(content);
.
.
.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
this is where we upload our letter, what we call content. It is required that an envelope contains a document type Content, this is the main content of any envelope, so on line 1 we create such content. In this example we point to the file that we want to upload from disk by using a path parameter. Next, line 2, we use our last Set item, namely that of a ContentSet, to manage our content, this time we need to supply the campaign [registeredCampaign] id from [CODE EXAMPLE 2] and also the envelope [registeredEnvelope] Id from [CODE EXAMPLE 3]. Finally on line 3 we make the API call.
OK all set? Not quite!
More envelopes and more content can be created as desired, once done we need to mark the campaign and the envelope as ready for delivery
Close
[CODE EXAMPLE 5] -close the campaign and envelope
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
.
.
.
1 envelopeSet.Close(registeredEnvelope.Id);
2 campaignSet.Close(registeredCampaign.Id);
.
.
.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
by using our Set objects we call the close function on both envelopes and campaigns, this will mark them as ready for our system to send them on to their destination. Note that once they are closed you may no longer modify them, you may however cancel, provided you do it before the scheduled send out time.
Cancel and Review
[CODE EXAMPLE 6] - cancel and review objects
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
.
.
.
1 envelopeSet.Cancel(registeredEnvelope.Id);
2 campaignSet.Cancel(registeredCampaign.Id);
3 envelopeSet.List().Resource;
4 campaignSet.List().Resource;
.
.
.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Line 1 and 2 shows how to cancel envelopes and campaigns respectively
line 3 and 4 shows how to retrieve a collection of envelopes and campaigns respectively. The List() function also accepts parameters to filter the returned result.
envelopeSet has string name and string state as filter parameters and
campaignSet has DateTime? start, DateTime? stop, string name and string state.
Using the Ebank Address object
When sending an invoice directly to a customers bank account, the Ebank address should be used. this object (ebankAddress) will replace the postalAddress object from [CODE EXAMPLE 3] when creating an Envelope.
[CODE EXAMPLE 7] - Creating an Ebank Address object
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
.
.
.
1 var ebankAddress = new AddressEbank(
2 "5568384118.BNK.SE",
3 "556838-4118",
4 "No Ink AB",
5 "556838",
6 ReferenceTypes.Ocr,
7 "0000556838411800",
8 "5568-3841",
9 false,
10 499.99M,
11 Convert.ToDateTime("2019-09-17T00:00:00"),
12 Convert.ToDateTime("2019-09-20T00:00:00"));
.
.

Remarks:
Sandbox do not use https!
Nothing that uploaded to sandbox will be sent to end customers.
Getting started
1. Create a sandbox user. Click here to create.
2. If you already have created a sandbox-user, Click here to login.
3. When you have created your sandbox account, you will automatically be signed in and you can immediately manually start uploading letter for testing or start using our API (http://api.sandbox.ekopost.se) with your user information that has been sent to your e-mail you entered when registering.
Webhooks
Set up Webhooks to receive status when campaign is completed.
You can access webhook-setup in secure API-settings menu here.
Webhooks allow you to build or set up integrations which subscribe to certain Ekopost events. When one of those events is triggered, we'll send a HTTP POST payload to the webhook's configured URL. Once installed, the webhook will be triggered each time one or more subscribed events occurs.
Event
Webhooks are only subscribed to the campaign completed event for now. For example, if you subscribe to webhooks event you'll receive a payload every time a campaign is completed and statuses for all envelopes in the campaign.
Payloads
You'll get a specific payload with the envelopes id and status information.
Delivery header
HTTP POST payloads that are delivered to your webhook's configured URL endpoint will contain one special header:
X-Ekopost-Signature The HMAC hex digest of the response body. The HMAC hex digest is generated using the sha1 hash function and the secret as the HMAC key.
Example delivery
POST /payload HTTPS/1.1

Code examples
Overview
In these examples we're using Newtonsoft.Json and Newtonsoft.Json.Linq along with RestSharp.
Variables used:
_apiKey see documentation
_host is either sandbox or production -base url
Get method used in the examples
private IRestResponse Get(string url)
{
var client = new RestClient();
var request = new RestRequest($"{_host}{url}");
request.Method = Method.GET;
request.AddHeader("Authorization", $"api-key {_apiKey}");
request.AddHeader("Content-Type", "application/json; charset=UTF-8");
return client.Get(request);
}
Post method used in the examples
private IRestResponse Post(string url, string requestBody = null)
{
var client = new RestClient();
var request = new RestRequest($"{_host}{url}").AddJsonBody(requestBody);
request.Method = Method.POST;
request.AddHeader("Authorization", $"api-key {_apiKey}");
request.AddHeader("Content-Type", "application/json; charset=UTF-8");
return client.Post(request);
}
SMS
var body = new
{
// Required
From = "Test", // Sender name or phone number *
Recipient = "+46701010101", // Recipient phone number *
Text = "Test text", // Sms text content
Title = "Dispatch title", // Description of the sms
// Optional
Cost_Center = "Tester", // Cost center
Unique_Id = "ref-22345-3", // Unique id to prevent duplicates
Webhook_Url = "https://webhooks.codeexamples.abc/sms" // Where to receive status webhook
};
var result = Post("dispatch/sms/", JsonConvert.SerializeObject(body, Formatting.None));
/* ToDo: Check result status */
dynamic response = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(result.Content);
/* ToDo: Check response status */
// Poll sms by Id
var pollByIdResult = Get($"dispatch/sms/{response.id.ToString()}");
// Poll sms by UniqueId
var pollByUniqueResult = Get($"dispatch/sms/unique/{response.unique_id.ToString()}");
* A phone number should be given in international format (leading + sign). An alphanumeric sender may contain A-Ö, a-ö, 0-9 or any of the special characters "#%&'()*+-./?, max 11 characters. However some operators are not able to handle Swedish characters and because of that we recommend you to only use A-Z, a-z, 0-9.

Reply mail
Reply mail makes use of a "replymail-template" which the recipient folds into an envelope and returns it to the address printed on the template
Link to templateWe will add an envelope to the mailing during production.
This feature needs to be set up per customer, contact hejsan@ekopost.se for more information.
Create reply mail
Reply mail are created the same way as regular postal mailings with these exceptions
1. Campaign body should have "replymail" set to "true"
// Create campaign
var campaignBody = new
{
name = "Replymail example",
output_date = DateTime.Now,
cost_center = "",
replymail = true // 1.
};
var createCampaignResult = Post($"/campaigns/", JsonConvert.SerializeObject(campaignBody, Formatting.None));
var createCampaignObject = JsonConvert.DeserializeAnonymousType(createCampaignResult.Content, new { id = "" });
2. A replymail-template should be added as an attachment marked replymail
// Attach the reply mail template
bytes = File.ReadAllBytes(@"File\Mall för svarsbrev för Svarspost ver 2.pdf");
fileBase64 = Convert.ToBase64String(bytes);
var attachmentBody = new
{
data = fileBase64,
mime = "application/pdf",
length = 1024,
type = "replymail", // 2.
};
createContentResult = Post($"campaigns/{createCampaignObject.id}/envelopes/{createEnvelopeObject.id}/content",
JsonConvert.SerializeObject(attachmentBody, Formatting.None));
createContentObject = JsonConvert.DeserializeAnonymousType(createContentResult.Content, new { id = "" });
Protected mailing
This feature needs to be set up per customer, contact hejsan@ekopost.se for more information.
Create protected mailing
Protected mailings are created the same way as regular postal mailings with these exceptions
1. Body of create envelope request should have postage = "protected"
2. and an address object of type "protected"
3. which should have a recipient in the form of ssn/pnr
// Create envelope
var envelopeBody = new
{
name = "A protected letter",
postage = "protected", // 1
plex = "simplex",
color = false,
address = new JObject
{
{ "$type", "protected" }, // 2
{ "recipient", "998811-XXXX" }, // 3
{ "use_coverpage", false}
}
};
var createEnvelopeResult = Post($"campaigns/{createCampaignObject.id}/envelopes",
JsonConvert.SerializeObject(envelopeBody, Formatting.None));
var createEnvelopeObject = JsonConvert.DeserializeAnonymousType(createEnvelopeResult.Content, new { id = "" });
If use_coverpage is set to false, the only thing that should be visible inside the address area is the recipients ssn/pnr.
