Ninja Van OAuth API

Exchange a client ID and client secret for a short-lived OAuth2 access token using the client-credentials grant (POST /{countryCode}/2.0/oauth/access_token). The returned bearer token is attached to every subsequent ninjaAPI request and cached until shortly before its expiry.

  title: Ninja Van API (ninjaAPI)
  description: >-
    ninjaAPI is Ninja Van's REST API for integrating last-mile logistics across
    Southeast Asia (Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, Vietnam,
    Thailand). Merchants create and cancel delivery orders, generate waybills
    (AWB), estimate tariffs, look up Ninja Point (PUDO) locations, and pull
    tracking events; Ninja Van pushes order status changes back to merchants via
    webhooks. Every request is country-scoped - the country code is the first
    path segment (for example /SG/, /MY/, /ID/) - and authenticated with an
    OAuth2 client-credentials bearer token. Production access is granted per
    merchant after an integration audit; the sandbox only supports the Singapore
    (sg) country code.

    Paths, methods, and versions in this document are grounded in Ninja Van's
    published OpenAPI specification (v4.1.0). Request/response schemas are
    modeled from the documentation and are simplified; verify exact field lists
    against the live API reference before production use.
