    REST API for SPOD (Spreadshirt Print-On-Demand), now branded Spreadconnect.
    Create customizable articles from designs, place and manage print-on-demand
    orders, choose shipping types and track shipments, browse the catalog of
    product types, check stock, and subscribe to webhook notifications for
    article, order, and shipment events. All requests are authenticated with a
    per-account API access token sent in the X-SPOD-ACCESS-TOKEN header. This
    document is an API Evangelist reference grounded in SPOD's published
    OpenAPI and developer documentation; verify request/response schemas against
    the live docs before production use.
