# Manifests

The manifest process marks a list of consignments as ready to be picked up by the carrier.
A manifest always refers to a specific warehouse and carrier. Scurri abstracts away the necessary actions and documentation
 a carrier needs and presents a common interface for the manifest process.

The endpoints in this section allow you to create a manifest for given consignments, and retrieve any relevant documents


## Create a new manifest

 - [POST /_api/v1/company/{company_slug}/manifest](https://docs.scurri.com/connect/consignments-api/versions/1.0.0/openapi/manifests/createmanifest.md): Initiates the manifest process for a given carrier and warehouse, specifying the consignments to include in the manifest.

## Get documents for a specific manifest

 - [GET /_api/v1/company/{company_slug}/manifest/{manifest_id}/documents](https://docs.scurri.com/connect/consignments-api/versions/1.0.0/openapi/manifests/getmanifestdocuments.md): You can use this API call to get the manifest documentation (as an A4-size PDF file) that you need to hand-in to the carrier.

Scurri will return the correct documentation for the specified carrier.

Keep in mind that, because the document generation is kicked off asynchronously by the previous API call, the documents may 
not be ready, when you execute this API call. In that case, you should retry after a while.
