  title: Cargoson Carriers Price Requests API
  description: Cargoson is a multi-carrier transport management (TMS) REST API. It exposes a single, unified interface for requesting freight rates, creating shipment queries and direct bookings, retrieving labels and tracking details, and listing carrier services across 2,000+ carriers. Authentication uses an API key as a Bearer token. Requests must send an Accept header of `application/vnd.api.v1`. Endpoints and field names below reflect Cargoson's public integration documentation; request/response schemas not published by Cargoson are intentionally left open (additionalProperties true) rather than fabricated.
