How will you be using this integration? Is it data you want to load as part of the load script? Or real time activity from a chart in the front end?

You probably can use the Qlik Generic REST connector.

You can also use your own code to interface with the USPS code and provide a REST wrapper so Qlik load script can access your interface. See https://qlikviewcookbook.com/2022/06/roll-your-own-qlik-connector/

Note there are additional Qlik Connectors for specific data sources.
