Before you start
- You have an active Cathedis merchant account, with at least one store and one pickup point already registered at Cathedis.
- You know your Cathedis username and password (the same as on their portal) — Cathedis does not issue any API key.
Connect Cathedis
1
Open carriers
In Sendocki, go to Connectors, open the Carriers tab, and choose Cathedis.
2
Add your credentials
Enter your Cathedis username and password. Unlike Ameex, Cathedis issues no API key: the connection uses your portal account.
3
Choose your store and pickup point
Sendocki reads your stores and pickup points from Cathedis automatically. Select the ones to use for your shipments — pick both from the same account, since a pickup point isn’t tied to one specific store.
4
Complete the settings
Default payment type, delivery type, default weight range, default goods description, whether the parcel can be opened, and the minimum declared value. These settings apply by default to all your Cathedis shipments.
5
Link statuses to your stages
Link each Cathedis status to a stage of your sales pipeline, then turn on automatic moves. Without this step, your orders will read “Delivered” but stay in the “Shipped” column.
6
Save
Save the connector. Cathedis then appears as an available carrier when shipping an order.
Cathedis does not offer a webhook. Sendocki polls Cathedis at regular intervals to fetch new statuses — expect a bit more delay than a carrier with a webhook, where changes arrive instantly.
Ship an order
- Open the order and choose Cathedis as its carrier.
- Check the recipient, phone number, address, city, and cash-on-delivery amount before sending it.
- Send the shipment, then print its label from Sendocki.
Request a pickup
Unlike Ameex, a Cathedis pickup request carries the exact list of parcels to collect — so it is only available as a bulk action, after selecting orders that have already been shipped. Use the bulk Request pickup action once your parcels are ready. The pickup point used is the one saved in your connector.Frequently asked questions
Where do I find my Cathedis credentials?
Where do I find my Cathedis credentials?
They are your usual username and password on the Cathedis portal. No API key is needed.
Why do my statuses take a while to update?
Why do my statuses take a while to update?
Cathedis exposes no webhook: Sendocki polls Cathedis at regular intervals instead of receiving changes in real time. A short delay is normal.
Can I set the payment type or weight per parcel?
Can I set the payment type or weight per parcel?
No, these are connector-level defaults applied to all your Cathedis shipments. You can change them at any time from the connector settings.
Can I really cancel a pickup request?
Can I really cancel a pickup request?
Sendocki can send the cancellation, but Cathedis doesn’t guarantee the driver’s visit is actually removed. Treat a pickup request as final once sent.
My orders show the right status but never change stage
My orders show the right status but never change stage
Statuses and stages are two different things. Open the Cathedis connector settings, link each status to a stage, then turn on automatic moves.
