Identifying Label Errors

Troubleshooting and Support
Depending on the specific error message, you may be able to resolve the issue by adjusting order details (such as weight or address) or by contacting support for technical failures.
| Error Type | Recommended Action |
| Validation Error | Check the package weight, dimensions, and recipient address for accuracy. |
| Server Error | Wait a few minutes and attempt to generate the label again. If the error persists, contact ShipHero Support. |
Server errors can be caused by temporary outages on the carrier's side or within ShipHero. If re-attempting label generation does not work after a short wait, please contact ShipHero Support for further investigation.
