  description: >-
    Manage your PapelShip store from your own systems: create orders, sync
    products and stock, ship physical orders, answer support tickets and react
    to events.


    Every request needs your API key in `x-api-key` and your store ID in
    `x-store-hash`. Amounts are integers in minor units (`2999` = 29.99). Dates
    are ISO 8601 in UTC.
