NotePlease be aware that if you provide a valid country code but that code is not listed above, you may still get a successful response (200 OK) with no locations, as this API could recognized the country code but no locations in that country were found. On the other hand, if you provide a wrong country code, this API will respond with a 400 error.
The API allows the user to search for DHL Service Points based on location-based specificity - from an area or city to a full address. The DHL Service Points returned will be ordered by distance from the location of the customer.
When the exact location of the customer is known, a search from that exact latitude and longitude can be performed. This search will retrieve DHL Service Points nearest to the user ordered by distance.
Not all DHL Service Points have the same opening hours and some might not be open all days of the week. With the API, the exact opening hours of the DHL Service Point are shown to the customer so an informed decision can be made.
I am a retailer based in Germany. My customers can order my products via my online store. I want to use the Location Finder - Unified API to display DPDHL locations at the check-out of my online store as delivery option. Only those locations should be returned by the API, which can be used for direct addressing. I offer standard delivery (no Express delivery) and both DPDHL stores (servicepoint, post offices and Postbank) and lockers (called DHL Packstation in Germany) are interesting for me.
In Germany, the business unit within DPDHL to handle this use case is P&P (Post & Parcel), available with this API through the parameter providerType as parcel. The services that offer direct addressing are parcel:pick-up (offered by service points, post offices and postbank) and parcel:pick-up-registered (only offered by lockers). For more information about this business unit and these services, please visit our overviewpage.
The parameter serviceType allows me to filter locations by services such as parcel:pick-up and parcel:pick-up-registered. Given this parameter will make the result include only locations with at least all of the serviceTypes requested, and in Germany, locations that offer parcel:pick-up do not offer parcel:pick-up-registered, I need to make two calls to the Location Finder - Unified API.
DPDHL places great emphasis on constantly improving its digital touchpoints from a customer perspective to make them more convenient and easier to use. This includes the decision to consolidate our APIs in a way that allows our customers to get the most value with the least effort.
We have therefore decided to transfer the functionalities of the Location Search Europe API, currently published on , to the Location Finder - Unified API. This API can be found here -reference/location-finder. The Location Search Europe API will be shut down on October 31, 2021.
