When an item ships via FedEx I want the end customer to see a FedEx tracking number. How do I indicate the carrier? Do I put "FedEx" in the shipping_method field?
The shipping carrier can only be set during the initial POST and not with subsequent PUT requests. When creating a shipment and you want to denote the shipping carrier, you should send a POST request with a json body such as:
[
{
"id": 1,
"order_id": 115,
"customer_id": 0,
"order_address_id": 16,
"date_created": "Wed, 19 Dec 2012 17:17:10 +0000",
"tracking_number": "111222333444",
"shipping_method": "None",
"shipping_provider": "fedex",
"tracking_carrier": "fedex",
"comments": "A sample shipment for order 115",
"billing_address": {
"first_name": "Louise",
"last_name": "Dean",
"company": "Skiptube",
"street_1": "147 Meadow Vale Way",
"street_2": "",
"city": "Fullerton",
"state": "Rhode Island",
"zip": "74674",
"country": "United States",
"country_iso2": "US",
"phone": "7-(086)085-9448",
"email": ""
},
"shipping_address": {
"first_name": "Louise",
"last_name": "Dean",
"company": "Skiptube",
"street_1": "147 Meadow Vale Way",
"street_2": "",
"city": "Fullerton",
"state": "Rhode Island",
"zip": "74674",
"country": "United States",
"country_iso2": "US",
"phone": "7-(086)085-9448",
"email": ""
},
"items": [
{
"order_product_id": 16,
"product_id": 0,
"quantity": 1
}
]
}
]
Yes, "shipping_method" is the correct property to use for the carrier name.
