How to set an access point in ups API wrapper? - php

Question

I am using the gabrielbull ups api wrapper and it is working fine, except when I want to add an UPS access point; the documentation says I have to declare a "AlternateDeliveryAddress". The access point data should then be printed on the ups label, but they are not appearing.
Since there isn't an example for this case on the wrapper GitHub page, I searched for methods on my own and found one but I have the feeling I forgot something since I don't receive any errors. I tried this code for the specific part. The surrounding code is like in the shipping class example
$address = new \Ups\Entity\Address();
$address->setAddressLine1($ap_addressline1);
$address->setPostalCode($ap_postal);
$address->setCity($ap_city);
$address->setCountryCode($ap_country);
$alternateTo = new \Ups\Entity\AlternateDeliveryAddress;
$alternateTo->setAddress($address);
$alternateTo->setUpsAccessPointId($ap_id);
$alternateTo->setName($ap_name);
$alternateTo->setAttentionName($ap_name);
$shipment->setAlternateDeliveryAddress($alternateTo);
Edit: I got this info of setting up the accesspoint from UPS support. The guy told me to set an alternate address with the AccessPoint data that will be printed at the bottom line of the label (where it's currently missing). If I misunderstood something (though we did a video conference and he showed me the result) and you know another way, feel free to tell me.

Ok after re-reading the official docs I found out what was missing.
If you want to use an accesspoint as address you also have to set the Indication Type via setShipmentIndicationType. There are 2 codes: 01 and 02 depending on the way you want to send it. Ofcourse I didn't add them before...
I haven't finished it yet because I get some errors but that's more about what information ups needs from me and so on. At least I can work with that.
As I mentioned in my initial post I used the example of the api wrapper as base and insert the required part before the request was send:
...
// Set Reference Number
...
// this is the part where you set shipment indication type for the accesspoint
$accesspoint = new \Ups\Entity\ShipmentIndicationType;
$accesspoint->setCode(Ups\Entity\ShipmentIndicationType::CODE_HOLD_FOR_PICKUP_ACCESS_POINT); // for "01"
#$accesspoint->setCode(Ups\Entity\ShipmentIndicationType::CODE_ACCESS_POINT_DELIVERY); // for "02"
$shipment->setShipmentIndicationType($accesspoint);
// Set payment information
...
// Ask for negotiated rates (optional)
...
// Get shipment info
...
