Server tool list (3)
Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.
| graceroad_presentation | Describes GraceRoad (GRACECORP AMD GROUP SAS, Dakar, Senegal): services (road freight, customs clearance and transit, refined fuel supply, commodity sourcing), countries served, how to request each service, and the fees that apply, including the study fee charged when a transport request is submitted. GraceRoad publishes no transport prices. |
| graceroad_corridors | Lists the West African road corridors GraceRoad serves, with typical cargo and vehicles, and a page for each. Optional filter: a country or city name (for example 'Mali', 'Bamako', 'Abidjan'). Contains no prices. |
| graceroad_preparer_demande | Prepares a request to GraceRoad and returns a link for the user. For 'transport', the link opens GraceRoad's assistant with the request already written; the user sends it themselves. Submitting a transport request carries a study fee (not the transport price); the response states the amount in 'avis_frais' and 'a_dire_a_l_utilisateur'. For 'carburant' (fuel in volume) asking for an offer is free. For 'sourcing', the enquiry is free and a fixed fee is quoted afterwards. This tool creates nothing and charges nothing. |
