Fetching Checkout Form Options via Admin API

[jessica_grav]

Merchants can set their checkout form options to require first and last name.

Is there an endpoint to determine if that have this option selected? I can't seem to find one in the docs. I want to be able to automate checking that first and last name are indeed required (for shipping reasons).

HI Jessica_grav,

As of now, Shopify's API does not expose an endpoint to determine if the merchant has set their checkout form options to require first and last name. This is a setting that is manually configured by the merchant in their Shopify admin under Settings > Checkout.

As a workaround, you might consider instructing your merchants on how to set this option or build it into your onboarding documentation. 

Hope this helps,

Definitely worth looking into adding if you have the power to make that request. Takes a lot of administration out of a step that can and does have an effect on custom shipping rates  (i.e. retrieving quotes from a 3rd party, some will reject without a first and last name).

Thank you for the response.
