What is AWB?

Also called Air waybill, tracking number

Short answer

An AWB is the courier tracking number assigned when a shipment is manifested. Support and analytics both key off it.

Worked example

When a customer messages 'where is my order', the agent should look up the AWB on Shiprocket and reply with the current scan, not a generic tracking link.

This term sits in the D2C operations hub. Use the related pages below for the full playbook.
