Clarity Connect integration
FedEx Oracle Integration
Send Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM shipments to FedEx and confirm them in Oracle with the tracking number, carrier and shipping cost FedEx returns, with Clarity Connect between the two.
What moves between FedEx and Oracle
"Oracle" covers several ERPs, and each handles carriers differently. This page is about Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM, where Oracle Shipping is part of Inventory Management. NetSuite, Oracle WMS Cloud and E-Business Suite are covered further down.
Oracle decides what ships, from which warehouse, to whom. FedEx prices the shipment, produces the label and assigns the tracking number. The integration sends shipment lines out of Oracle Shipping to FedEx and posts the confirmation back, so Order Management, Receivables and customer service all see the same shipment.

Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM to FedEx mapping
Oracle REST resource names from Oracle's Fusion Cloud SCM documentation; FedEx API names from developer.fedex.com. Discovery settles services, packaging and which costs go back to Oracle.
| Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM | FedEx | Direction |
|---|---|---|
| Shipment Line Change Requests (generateShipmentRequest) | Ship API shipment request | Oracle to FedEx |
| Shipment Transaction Requests (CreateAndConfirmShipment): tracking number, carrier, waybill | Ship API response: tracking number and label | FedEx to Oracle |
| Shipping costs on the shipment | Rates and Transit Times API | FedEx to Oracle |
| Ship-to address on the shipment line | Address Validation API | Checked before shipping |
| Shipments (status lookup) | Integrated Visibility events | FedEx to Oracle or your portal |
How the FedEx link runs
Shipment lines out of Oracle Shipping
Oracle documents a shipment request flow for handing lines to an outside system: the generateShipmentRequest action on the Shipment Line Change Requests REST resource selects lines and marks them as interfaced. Connect takes those lines, builds the FedEx shipment with addresses, packages and service, and calls the Ship API.
Ship confirmation with FedEx's answer
FedEx returns a tracking number for each package and the label to print. Connect posts the result to the Shipment Transaction Requests resource with the CreateAndConfirmShipment action, carrying the tracking number, carrier, waybill and shipping costs, so the shipment is confirmed in Oracle with the real FedEx details.
Tracking after confirmation
FedEx's Basic Integrated Visibility, formerly the Track API, returns status by tracking number, and Advanced Integrated Visibility pushes in-transit updates to a webhook for US accounts. Connect can relay delivered and exception events to your customer portal or store.

Other Oracle products, and FedEx's move to REST
Check what you already own before building. Oracle WMS Cloud has parcel functionality for shipping with UPS and FedEx, and has supported FedEx's REST web services since its 24B release. Oracle Transportation Management rates parcel and freight shipments, tenders them to carriers and sends a shipment request to Oracle Shipping. If either is in place, the FedEx link may already exist.
NetSuite's older FedEx, UPS and USPS shipping label integration is not available to new customers; NetSuite Ship Central is its standard shipping solution and connects to carriers through the ShipStation API. In E-Business Suite, Oracle Shipping Execution integrates with third-party carriers through custom hooks. See NetSuite integration and Oracle integration.
On the FedEx side, the SOAP Web Services moved to maintenance-only support on July 1, 2026, and the Web Services test environment is switched off on December 31, 2026. A new Oracle link should use FedEx's REST APIs, which sign in with OAuth 2.0.
How Clarity Connect runs it
Clarity Connect is Clarity's integration platform. It keeps a standing connection between Oracle and FedEx and runs each flow as its own task, so outbound shipment requests, confirmations and tracking updates can run at different speeds. A shipment that can't reach FedEx or Oracle waits in Connect's retry queue instead of being lost. Clarity has built more than 3,000 integrations on Connect; recorded demos are in the Clarity Connect video playlist.
Discovery
A Clarity business analyst documents the data fields and workflows each system can share and which ones you need.
Tasks and mapping
Each flow becomes a Connect task, such as orders to the ERP or stock to the store, set to run in real time or on a schedule.
Testing
Orders and updates are run end to end, including the return trip of statuses back to the customer-facing system.
Live, with a dashboard
Queues and scheduled tasks show in Connect's Hangfire dashboard. A job whose target is offline is retried 10 times, every 30 minutes, and can be re-queued once the cause is fixed.
Clarity Connect is sold as a SaaS subscription at $599 a month or as a one-time license at $15,000 with no ongoing fees, and larger projects are priced to scope. See pricing.
Questions
Does Oracle Fusion Cloud print FedEx labels on its own?
Oracle documents Fusion Shipping handing shipment lines to an outside system and taking the confirmation back; its documentation doesn't describe a built-in FedEx label feature there. Oracle WMS Cloud does have parcel shipping with FedEx and UPS.
We run NetSuite. Is this page for us?
Not quite. NetSuite's standard shipping tool is Ship Central, and its older FedEx label integration is closed to new customers. See NetSuite integration.
Which FedEx APIs are used?
The Ship API for labels and tracking numbers, Rates and Transit Times for cost, Address Validation for addresses, and Integrated Visibility for status, all authenticated with OAuth 2.0.
Can it handle multi-package shipments?
Yes. FedEx returns a master tracking number plus one per package, and Oracle's Shipment Transaction Requests resource carries packing units as well as shipment lines.
