About the shipcloud integration

A customer is waiting for a parcel while your dispatch team watches another shipment status change. shipcloud can send a trigger when a shipment reaches a new status. Mobile Message can then send an SMS with the relevant delivery update.

That makes it practical to text a customer when a shipment is accepted, moving through the carrier network or ready for the next step, provided the status and recipient details are available in the Zap. You can include a tracking reference or a short instruction in the message, giving the customer useful information without asking staff to check shipcloud and copy details into a separate texting tool. Through Zapier, the shipcloud event is passed into Mobile Message for the selected SMS action. The connection is focused on notification. The available shipcloud actions create a shipment quote or a real shipment, so they do not provide a suitable customer-facing result when paired with Mobile Message triggers. Keep shipment creation in shipcloud and use the Zap for timely status messages.
