name: CMA CGM
description: >-
  CMA CGM is a Marseille-headquartered French container shipping, logistics,
  and port operator and the third-largest ocean carrier in the world. Founded
  in 1978 by Jacques Saadé and led today by Chairman & CEO Rodolphe Saadé, the
  CMA CGM Group operates a fleet of 593 vessels with 4.5 million TEU of
  capacity calling 420 ports across 160 countries on 257 maritime services. The
  group includes maritime brands ANL, APL, CNC Line, Containerships, Comanav,
  and Mercosul Line; terminal operator CMA Terminals and Terminal Link; the
  CEVA Logistics contract logistics and freight forwarding business
  (acquired 2019); CMA CGM Air Cargo; Brittany Ferries and La Méridionale
  passenger ferries; and the CMA Média portfolio (La Provence, La Tribune,
  BFM-RMC, Brut). Through api-portal.cma-cgm.com the group exposes a DCSA-aligned
  REST API surface — Track and Trace v1 (DCSA v2.2.0), Schedules, Booking
  Request, Quotation, and Invoice — plus a parallel EDI catalog (EDIFACT
  IFTSAI, IFTMBF, IFTSTA, INVOIC) and group-level digital initiatives
  including ZEBOX (startup accelerator), Traxens-based IoT smart containers,
  and a strategic AI partnership with Mistral.

    name: CMA CGM Track and Trace API
    description: >-
      Public and private REST API exposing CMA CGM, ANL, APL, CNC, and
      Containerships shipment events aligned with the DCSA Track & Trace v2.2.0
      OpenAPI specification (`/operation/trackandtrace/v1`). Two operations:
      `GET /events` to search events by booking reference, transport document
      reference, equipment reference, or vessel, and `GET /events/{trackingReference}`
      to retrieve events for a single reference. The Public connection uses an
      API Key and returns equipment moves, transshipment events, and planned
      vessel arrival/departure dates. The Private connection uses OAuth2 client
      credentials (`tandtcommercial:read:be`, `tandtpublic:read:be` scopes) and
      requires verified booking-party identity to additionally expose actual
      rail and ramp moves, inland dates, and finer-grained event metadata.

      and equipment particulars, and routing, and returns a booking reference
      plus a downstream confirmation (IFTMBC equivalent).
