  6. If you need to print shipping labels you will need to follow the tutorial here as well, this is only for shipping quotes and other data.

Please note that beginning May 2024, authentication to FedEx APIs using access keys will be deprecated in favor of an OAuth 2.0 security model.

OAuth replaces access keys with a FedEx Key and FedEx Password for authentication & New OAuth credentials must be created on the FedEx Developer Portal.
