Updates a draft order.

If a checkout has been started for a draft order, any update to the draft will unlink the checkout. Checkouts are created but not immediately completed when opening the merchant credit card modal in the admin, and when a buyer opens the invoice URL. This is usually fine, but there is an edge case where a checkout is in progress and the draft is updated before the checkout completes. This will not interfere with the checkout and order creation, but if the link from draft to checkout is broken the draft will remain open even after the order is created.

Cancels a fulfillment.

Creates a fulfillment for one or many fulfillment orders. The fulfillment orders are associated with the same order and are assigned to the same location.

Creates a fulfillment event for a specified fulfillment.

Accept a cancellation request sent to a fulfillment service for a fulfillment order.

Accepts a fulfillment request sent to a fulfillment service for a fulfillment order.

Marks a fulfillment order as canceled.

Marks an in-progress fulfillment order as incomplete, indicating the fulfillment service is unable to ship any remaining items and intends to close the fulfillment order.

Changes the location which is assigned to fulfill a number of unfulfilled fulfillment order line items.

Moving a fulfillment order will fail in the following circumstances:

  • The fulfillment order is closed.
  • The destination location has never stocked the requested inventory item.
  • The API client doesn't have the correct permissions.

Line items which have already been fulfilled can't be re-assigned and will always remain assigned to the original location.

You can't change the assigned location while a fulfillment order has a request status of SUBMITTED, ACCEPTED, CANCELLATION_REQUESTED, or CANCELLATION_REJECTED. These request statuses mean that a fulfillment order is awaiting action by a fulfillment service and can't be re-assigned without first having the fulfillment service accept a cancellation request. This behavior is intended to prevent items from being fulfilled by multiple locations or fulfillment services.

How re-assigning line items affects fulfillment orders

First scenario: Re-assign all line items belonging to a fulfillment order to a new location.

In this case, the assignedLocation of the original fulfillment order will be updated to the new location.

Second scenario: Re-assign a subset of the line items belonging to a fulfillment order to a new location. You can specify a subset of line items using the fulfillmentOrderLineItems parameter (available as of the 2023-04 API version), or specify that the original fulfillment order contains line items which have already been fulfilled.

If the new location is already assigned to another active fulfillment order, on the same order, then a new fulfillment order is created. The existing fulfillment order is closed and line items are recreated in a new fulfillment order.

Marks a scheduled fulfillment order as open.

Fulfillment service location

When creating a fulfillment service, a new location will be automatically created on the shop and will be associated with this fulfillment service. This location will be named after the fulfillment service and inherit the shop's address.

If you are using API version 2023-10 or later, and you need to specify custom attributes for the fulfillment service location (for example, to change its address to a country different from the shop's country), use the LocationEdit mutation after creating the fulfillment service.
