Automate e-SkyCargo with a workflow

A workflow runs your methods as one process, with nobody at the screen. A schedule or a call from your own system starts it, the steps run in order, and the result arrives in your inbox or in the systems you already use.

• Bookings still waiting for confirmation

  Build this

  Starts

  Every weekday at 7:00

  Step 1

  Get your bookings from Manage Bookings.

  Step 2

  Keep the bookings with a flight in the coming 7 days whose status is not confirmed.

  Step 3

  Email you the list with AWB number, route, flight and date.

• Air waybill tracking updates, posted to your system

  Build this

  Starts

  Every 2 hours

  Step 1

  Get your bookings from Manage Bookings.

  Step 2

  For each AWB number, read its tracking details.

  Step 3

  Keep the AWBs whose latest status changed since the last run.

  Step 4

  Post each one, with its latest status, station and flight, to your webhook.

• Morning rates on your regular lanes

  Build this

  Starts

  Every weekday at 6:30

  Step 1

  For each lane you name, find offers for a shipment departing tomorrow.

  Step 2

  Group the offers by lane with an AI step and keep the lowest total for each.

  Step 3

  Email you one table: lane, flight, product, freight rate and total.

You can run a workflow by hand on every plan, Free included. Schedules and webhook triggers come with the paid plans, from $29 a month.

Once built, one call from your code

Once you have built a method, it is one POST to /v1/runs from your backend, or a tool an AI agent calls over MCP. This is what “Find offers for a shipment” would look like.

      }
    ],
    "count": 1
  }
}

An example with invented data, not a ready-made endpoint. The method exists in your organization once you build it, and its name, inputs and fields follow your request.

E-SkyCargo’s own options

Emirates SkyCargo offers a host-to-host API connection to your own system for booking creation, amendments, cancellations and track and trace, arranged by contacting its team; no prices or self-serve sign-up are published. Bookings are also possible through CargoWise and, for IATA/CASS members, online marketplaces. e-SkyCargo itself is the web portal.

Signing in to e-SkyCargo

e-SkyCargo signs you in with a User Name and Password, with no second step described in its guides. Each user ID is tied to your company branch code. With Fous you sign in once through e-SkyCargo's own sign-in with your own account: the login is sealed with AES-256, and an expired session is signed back in.

Worth knowing

Air waybill stock comes after registration

IATA customers send their user ID, CASS code and branch code to the e-SkyCargo team to get AWB stock. Non-IATA customers get a JRN, and their booking is cancelled 24 to 48 hours before departure unless the station is updated.

Loose cargo only

ULDs cannot be booked on e-SkyCargo, only loose cargo. Weight, capacity and destination can also restrict what is offered.

What you see depends on your company and role

View Shipment List shows AWBs booked by you and others under your company branch code. My Company Quotes shows quotes at the branch, city or country level set for your user role.

Some changes go through the station

After an air waybill is executed, amendments go through your local Emirates SkyCargo station. A quote edited in Approved status is evaluated again, and origin, destination and product cannot be edited.
