The InventoryItem resource now indicates whether it requires shipping instead of the Product Variant
API
Effective February 12, 2019
The InventoryItem resource now includes a field requires_shipping to indicate whether the item requires shipping, deprecating the corresponding field on the ProductVariant resource.
Who is affected by this change?
Any app that reads requires_shipping off of the ProductVariant.
How do I prepare for this change?
Start consuming and reading checks for requires_shipping on the InventoryItem resource instead of the ProductVariant.
What happens if I do nothing?
As the ProductVariant equivalent for requires_shipping gets deprecated, any app that consumes that field will no longer be able to.
