Hi Javmah,

 

The structure of the GET request you're making matches (apart from some stylistic differences) how the docs advise to create a fulfilment so it's tricky to see what might be causing this error. Some things I'd check would be to ensure that the `fulfillment_order_id` you're using is correct and corresponds to an existing, unfulfilled order in your Shopify account, as well as ensuring that the tracking number and URL are accurate.

 

Hope this helps,
