REST API curl fulfillment - Bad Request

[rmanev]

curl -d '{"fulfillment":{"line_items_by_fulfillment_order":[{"fulfillment_order_id":5702762856492}],"tracking_info":{"number":"MS1562678","url":"https://www.usps.com?tracking_number=MS1562678"}}}' -X POST "https://image-devstore.myshopify.com/admin/api/2023-04/fulfillments.json" -H "X-Shopify-Access-Token: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" -H "Content-Type: application/json"

Can someone tell me why do I get back Bad Request response from the above request?
The app has sufficient permissions to use fulfillments resaources.
The same request made with PHP successfully create the fulfillment.

Hello @rmanev,

Thank you for reaching out to the Shopify community.

I kindly request you to review the request payload and headers that you are currently passing. In order to provide you with a helpful reference, I have attached a sample working cURL command below:

curl --location 'https://cheetosr.myshopify.com/admin/api/2023-04/fulfillments.json' \
--header 'X-Shopify-Access-Token: your_access_token' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
    "fulfillment": {
        "line_items_by_fulfillment_order": [{
            "fulfillment_order_id": 6307931226386
        }],
        "tracking_info": {
            "number": "MS12345",
            "url": "https://www.usps.com?tracking_number=MS12345"
        }
    }
}'

Furthermore, if the issue persists, I would appreciate it if you could respond with the response details, including the HTTP status code, and if possible, a Postman export. This additional information would enable me to conduct a thorough examination of the request and promptly resolve the issue on your behalf.

Thanks.

Hi @chetancrao 

Thank you for your response.

OS: Windows 10

CLI: Command Prompt

We have tried your suggested cURL through command line. Copy/paste your exact line with the proper URL/Token produced an error:

curl: (3) URL using bad/illegal format or missing URL
curl: (3) URL using bad/illegal format or missing URL
curl: (3) URL using bad/illegal format or missing URL
curl: (3) URL using bad/illegal format or missing URL
curl: (6) Could not resolve host: application
curl: (3) URL using bad/illegal format or missing URL
curl: (3) URL using bad/illegal format or missing URL
curl: (3) unmatched brace in URL position 1:
{

I had to slightly  modify the line removing space intervals to avoid the above error. Here is the line I came up with:

curl --location "https://image-devstore.myshopify.com/admin/api/2023-04/fulfillments.json" --header "X-Shopify-Access-Token: {our_token}" --header 'Content-Type:application/json' --data '{"fulfillment":{"line_items_by_fulfillment_order":[{"fulfillment_order_id":5702836650028}],"tracking_info":{"number":"MS12345","url":"https://www.usps.com?tracking_number=MS12345"}}}'

Here is the respond:

{"errors":{"fulfillment":"Required parameter missing or invalid"}}

I'm also attaching the Postman json file for reference.

Hi @rmanev 

I have checked the Postman collection you have shared, and there seems to be the API endpoint was incorrect. Also, I have corrected that, and I have tested the same with one of my test stores. Please give it a try one more time.

First, make an API call named "Fetch order fulfillments" and pass the order id to it, then once you receive a response from the fetch API, use the id from 

fulfillment_orders array in the next API call named "Create order fulfillment".

Postman Collection 

Thanks.
