Clip and Ship API

The Clip and Ship API will be decommissioned on September 1, 2020. This API was previously deprecated and removed from our documentation in 2018. To continue downloading Planet imagery, we recommend using the Orders (v2) API. This API was especially designed for bulk ordering and offers unique delivery features, including delivery to cloud storage, zip, and email or webhook notifications. Please reach out to support by submitting a request for details on accessing our Orders API clipping feature.
