ZIM's digital surface includes the myZIM customer area, ZIMonitor cargo visibility, an electronic Bill of Lading (eB/L) service, a Draft B/L tool, EDI integrations for booking and shipping instructions, a mobile application, and a developer API portal at api.zim.com hosted on Microsoft Azure API Management.
