description: 'Kargo (Kargo Technologies, kargo.ai) builds an AI-powered smart loading
  dock for warehouses and distribution centers. Camera towers (Kargo Tower) and forklift-mounted
  cameras (Kargo Lift) apply computer vision to every pallet that moves through a dock
  door, reading LPN, SKU, lot code and expiration-date labels to automate shipping
  and receiving, verify loads and shipments, detect damage, and feed inventory visibility,
  shelf-life management, FSMA traceability, claims management, financial reconciliation
  and automated ASNs back into the customer WMS. Kargo publishes a public integration
  surface for that data exchange: a REST Document Intake API described by an OpenAPI
  3.1 document, a public GraphQL API with open anonymous introspection, a single unified
  JSON endpoint, a webhook (push) API at shipment and pallet level plus a GraphQL subscription
  alternative, and flat-file ingest over email, SFTP or AS2. All programmatic access is
  Auth0 OAuth 2.0 client-credentials bearer tokens.'

- name: Kargo Document Intake API
  description: 'REST API for programmatic access to Kargo platform resources. Accepts
    a single flattened document carrying shipment, order and order-item data, or a
    shipment-level document with multiple orders, and upserts it against the Kargo
    platform. Also carries the SKU master surface. JSON and XML request bodies, RFC
    9457 problem+json errors, and an interactive Swagger reference.'

  description: 'Kargo''s original public integration method, maintained for existing
    integrations and still the surface behind the Unified Endpoint API. Exposes queries
    for businesses, shipments, push messages and the Kargo agent download, mutations
    for creating and updating shipments, orders, order items, SKUs, exceptions and
    parsed images, and a pushMessage subscription as an alternative to webhooks. Anonymous
    introspection is open.'
