I am working on a Fulfillment Service app for a client. I need to test the process of creating Orders (and FulfillmentOrders), and managing fulfillment requests on a development store before I release my work to production.
I was told by a Shopify staffer that the correct way to test Orders is via the API, so I have been following the documentation for managing test orders. It's worth mentioning that I am unable to test using the online store/bogus gateway because I do not have checkouts enabled. I am able to successfully create the Order and execute a fake Transaction programmatically via the Admin REST API (version 2022-07). However, none of the test Orders I have created have associated fulfillment orders, which are supposed to be created automatically when an Order is created, according to the documentation. For example,
After successfully creating an order via a POST request with this body:
{
"order": {
"email": "test@test.com",
"financial_status": "pending",
"line_items": [
{
"title": "Test #1",
"price": 1,
"grams": "1300",
"quantity": 1,
"fulfillment_service": {my_service},
"fulfillment_status": null,
"tax_lines": [
{
"price": 1.0,
"rate": 0.06,
"title": "State tax"
}
]
}
],
"transactions": [
{
"kind": "authorization",
"status": "success",
"amount": 1
}
]
}
}
I receive this response (with some values obscured):

To get the fulfillment orders, I access this endpoint:
GET https://{shop_domain}/admin/api/2022-07/orders/{order_id}/fulfillment_orders.json
And I get this response:
{
"fulfillment_orders": []
}
Does anyone have any idea as to what I might be doing wrong? I have come across several similar posts that have either gone completely unanswered or recommend changing the development store's settings to fulfill orders automatically, which I tried to no avail.

Hey @efertsch - thanks for getting in touch. This is definitely odd. I have encountered something similar to this before. Can you try testing the same app on other stores and see if the empty array for "fulfillment_orders" persists? If it doesn't, the best workaround at the moment is to try and install another version of your app on the store (just create a new one via the partner dashboard or as a private app through the shop's admin if you did so that way.
There's a bit more information on a similar incident here at this link. If the error persists after you try both of those workarounds, just reply back here and I'd be happy to do a deeper dive into this with you.
