Tradeshift
Add Tradeshift to your product for your customers, and give your AI agents governed access to it.
Tradeshift is where a buyer and their suppliers exchange documents directly, so an integration here is about documents in flight rather than a ledger at rest. Invoices, credit notes and orders move between companies that each hold their own account and are connected to one another, and the awkward part is that the rules those documents must satisfy are set by tax authorities rather than by either party. Countries keep introducing their own electronic invoicing mandates with their own required fields, formats and clearance steps, so what a valid invoice looks like depends on where it is going and when, and a document rejected for a missing regulatory field is not a retry, it is a conversation. Approval routing and account coding are configured per company, writes are idempotent so a resend cannot post twice, and fastn keeps the credentials and the interface upkeep on its side.
In your product
Embedded for your customers. Per-tenant auth, no per-customer code, maintained by fastn.
Let each customer connect their own Tradeshift account so documents move between them and their trading partners without a file drop in the middle.
Send an invoice or credit note to a connected partner and read the state it reaches, including rejection and the reason given.
Read the trading partners a customer is actually connected to, so your product never addresses a document to a company that cannot receive it.
Carry the fields a destination country's electronic invoicing rules require, as configuration held per tenant, not as a branch in your codebase.
For your AI agents
Governed, audited access for the agents you build, through the MCP server.
An agent reports which sent invoices were rejected and quotes the reason each was returned with.
An agent looks up whether a document has been approved and where it is sitting in the chain.
An agent sends an approved document within governed permissions, with the partner it went to recorded.
Example prompt
Which invoices we sent this month were rejected, and what did each partner give as the reason?
Set up Tradeshift in 4 steps
- 01Enable the Tradeshift connector in your fastn dashboard.
- 02Have each customer authorise their own account and confirm which trading partners and countries they exchange documents with.
- 03Map the invoice, credit note and order fields your product uses, including the regulatory fields their destinations require.
- 04Call it from your product and expose the same connection to your agents through the MCP gateway.
Why teams use the Tradeshift integration
What you get by embedding it with fastn instead of building it yourself.
- Ship a Tradeshift integration without building it. Your customers connect their own Tradeshift account inside your product and work their invoices, payments and vendors there, with no per-customer code on your side.
- Handle the part that actually costs time: financial writes must be idempotent and reconcilable, because a duplicate is an accounting problem rather than a bug. fastn owns the auth, token refresh, rate limits, pagination and breaking-change fixes, so a Tradeshift update is not your on-call problem.
- One integration serves your product and your agents. The same governed Tradeshift connection powers in-product features and gives AI agents scoped, audited access, so you move financial records without hand-keying them between systems without wiring it twice.

AfterShipTradeshift integration FAQ
How do I add a Tradeshift integration to my product?
Enable the Tradeshift connector in your fastn dashboard, then let each customer authenticate their own Tradeshift account. fastn handles the OAuth flow, token storage and refresh per tenant, so there is no Tradeshift client code in your app and no per-customer branch in your codebase. Setup is 4 steps.
Do my customers each connect their own Tradeshift account?
Yes. Every connection is scoped to the individual customer, so each authorises their own Tradeshift account and only ever sees their own invoices, payments and vendors. That per-tenant isolation is the point of an embedded integration: you support the long tail of customer setups without maintaining an integration per customer.
Can AI agents use this Tradeshift integration?
Yes. The same connection is exposed to your agents through the fastn MCP gateway, with permissions scoped per tenant and every call audited. An agent reports which sent invoices were rejected and quotes the reason each was returned with.
Who maintains the Tradeshift integration?
fastn does. When Tradeshift changes an endpoint, deprecates a field or alters its auth, the fix lands in the connector rather than in your backlog, and your customers' connections keep working.
Is the Tradeshift integration safe for financial writes?
Writes are idempotent, so a retry after a timeout does not post a document twice, and every call is logged per tenant so an entry can be traced back to the event that created it. That matters more in finance than anywhere else, because a duplicate is a number somebody has to explain.
Can it handle each customer's own chart of accounts?
Yes. ERP deployments are configured to the business, so account structures, required fields and fiscal calendars differ per customer. Those are mapped per tenant as configuration, not hard-coded.
What about Tradeshift rate limits during a first import?
Backfills are throttled deliberately. ERP limits are often account-wide rather than per-integration, so an unthrottled import can exhaust a customer's allowance and disrupt their other integrations.
What can I build with the Tradeshift integration?
A common starting point: let each customer connect their own Tradeshift account so documents move between them and their trading partners without a file drop in the middle. Teams also use it for the other use cases listed above, and expose it to agents for governed reads and writes.
How much does the Tradeshift integration cost?
It is included. Pricing is based on connected accounts, not on how many connectors you enable, so adding Tradeshift does not change your per-connector cost. You can start free with 3 connected accounts.
