It is still the same client from Maryland. Today I registered for her using my email. I received the following information from USPS

For Company: MBaker Artwork
Your Web Tools USERID is *****
Your Web Tools Password is *****

I registered on page https://maureen-baker.com/vsadmin/adminuspsmeths.php?admin=3 first with UserID - then with Password, in both cases I am getting the error message "Authorization failure. Maybe username and/or password is incorrect.

In the page to set the connection to USPS https://maureen-baker.com/vsadmin/adminuspsmeths.php?admin=3 I can only find a field to set the username, is there some other place I have to set the password?

Hi Anne
On this page here...
https://www.ecommercetemplates.com/help/usps.asp
It mentions you need to register on this page here...
https://registration.shippingapis.com/
Did you do that? And did you receive an email from them which will have the user id you need for USPS shipping rates? The one you are using is your usps.com account login.

Vince, I registered at the site you mentioned, got the email with the following information

For Company: MBaker Artwork
Your Web Tools USERID is *****
Your Web Tools Password is *****

I tried a test order with USERID and am getting the same error message as before "Authorization Failure. Perhaps username and/or password is incorrect.

Hi Anne
In that email you receive it says something about replying to the email to go into production mode. Is that in there? Have you done that?

Vince, it says the following:

2. API Access Process

Once registration is complete and Web Tools credentials are generated (see above section), access must be requested and approved to use Web Tools APIs. Each API requires separate permissions and approval before access is granted. It will be important to specify which APIs you intend to use and how (i.e., the business use case/justification) when requesting access. If you are using a third-party software or vendor that necessitates Web Tools credentials (i.e., USERID and Password) and access to Web Tools APIs, you must specify the name of the software/vendor when requesting access. There are separate steps to request access depending on which APIs you intend to use. Access to the majority of Web Tools APIs can be requested in the next section. The approval process for Tracking and Shipping Label APIs is separate. Reference those sections below for details. To expedite approval, include all required information detailed in the below sections. For any questions or concerns regarding an access request contact webtools@usps.gov.

I have been reading on in this email,at first thought the script had it all covered. Now will see how I can sort this out.

Hi Anne
Is this the email you received in response to registering on this page?
https://registration.shippingapis.com/
It's just this...
Once registration is complete and Web Tools credentials are generated (see above section), access must be requested and approved to use Web Tools APIs.
...looks like what I would expect for the new USPS OAuth API
