  name: CMA CGM Track and Trace API
  description: 'Public and private REST API exposing CMA CGM, ANL, APL, CNC, and Containerships shipment events aligned with
    the DCSA Track & Trace v2.2.0 OpenAPI specification (`/operation/trackandtrace/v1`). Two operations: `GET /events` to
    search events by booking reference, transport document reference, equipment reference, or vessel, and `GET /events/{trackingReference}`
    to retrieve events for a single reference. The Public connection uses an API Key and returns equipment moves, transshipment
    events, and planned vessel arrival/departure dates. The Private connection uses OAuth2 client credentials (`tandtcommercial:read:be`,
    `tandtpublic:read:be` scopes) and requires verified booking-party identity to additionally expose actual rail and ramp
    moves, inland dates, and finer-grained event metadata.'
