E-way bill API login setup: how E-Way Easy connects
To file e-way bills from your phone, E-Way Easy uses an e-way bill API login that you create on the official portal. Here is what that means, how it is set up and how your credentials are handled.
The basics
What is an e-way bill API login?
The official e-way bill system can be used in two ways: through its website screens, or through an API, where approved software files e-way bills on your behalf. Software reaches the API through a GST Suvidha Provider (GSP) authorised for the e-way bill system.
For API filing, a registered taxpayer creates a separate API username and password on the official e-way bill portal. This is not your normal portal login and not your GST portal password. It is meant only for filing through a GSP, and you can manage it on the portal yourself.
The exact screens on the portal can change, so follow the guided setup in the E-Way Easy app together with the official e-way bill user documentation.
How an e-way bill is filed from the app
- You review the details and tap Generate (or update, extend, cancel, consolidate).
- E-Way Easy sends that one request, with your own API login, through an authorised GSP.
- Official NIC e-way bill system checks it and issues the e-way bill number, or rejects it with a reason.
- The app shows the result. Credits are taken only if the action succeeded.
Setup
Four steps from install to your first e-way bill
The API connection is a one-time step. After that, filing is part of the normal app flow.
Sign up and add your GSTIN
Sign in with email or Google and add your business GSTIN and details.
Connect your e-way bill API login
Create the API login on the official portal if you do not have one, then enter it in the app. The guided setup takes you through it.
Create or import an invoice
Make the sales invoice in the app, or import an invoice PDF and review the details it reads.
Tap Generate
The e-way bill is filed on the official system and the e-way bill number is shown in the app.
What happens on the invoice and review screens is covered in how E-Way Easy works.

Your data
How your credentials and data are handled
Read the full privacy policy for details. In short:
API login stored encrypted
Your e-way bill system API login is stored encrypted, not in plain text.
Used only when you ask
It is used only for the e-way bill actions you request in the app: generate, update Part B, extend, cancel or consolidate.
Sign in with email or Google
Your E-Way Easy account uses your email or Google sign-in, separate from any government login.
Export your data any time
Your data is yours. You can export it from the app whenever you want.
Payments through Razorpay
Credits are bought through Razorpay by UPI, card or net banking, with payment details entered on Razorpay’s own screens. See pricing.
Your own credentials, your own filings
Every e-way bill is filed under your GSTIN with your API login, so it appears on the official portal like any other.
What we will never ask for
- Your GST portal password, over phone, WhatsApp, chat or email.
- OTPs sent to your registered mobile or email.
- Your normal e-way bill portal password. The app needs only the API login you create for GSP filing, entered by you inside the app.
- Card numbers, UPI PINs or bank passwords. Payments go through Razorpay’s own screens.
If anyone claiming to be from E-Way Easy asks for these, do not share them, and tell us through the contact page.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is an e-way bill API login?
It is a separate username and password, created by a registered taxpayer on the official e-way bill portal, for filing e-way bills through a GST Suvidha Provider (GSP) instead of the portal’s own screens. It is different from your normal portal login.
Is my normal e-way bill portal or GST portal password needed?
No. E-Way Easy uses only the API login you create for this purpose. We never ask for your GST portal password, and nobody from E-Way Easy will ask for it, or for an OTP, over phone, chat or email.
Are e-way bills from E-Way Easy valid?
E-way bills are filed on the official NIC e-way bill system through an authorised GSP, using your own API credentials. The e-way bill number you get is issued by that system, the same as any other e-way bill. You remain responsible for the details you file.
How are my API credentials stored?
Your e-way bill system API login is stored encrypted and is used only to file the e-way bill actions you ask for in the app. You can export your data at any time.
Something went wrong during setup. Where can I get help?
Follow the guided setup in the app step by step, and use Help inside the app if a step fails. Our help page covers common problems, and the official portal’s user documentation explains API registration from its side.
