Detecting Fulfillment Settings?

Is there a way to programmatically detect a storefront's fulfillment settings via the API? 

 

Example - I have some merchants that are setup to autofulfill every line item.  I have others that are set on manual fulfillment.  The behavior of some of our functions would vary slightly in a scenario where a merchant has selected manual fulfillment. 

 

Not finding this information readily available in the API docs... does the property exist via the API?

Fulfillment settings are specific to product & product variants.  It is essentially the "Available at locations" on the inventory.   Each of these "locations" has a location id that may help.

 

For an orders' line_items -- I believe you can check what location_id is fulfilling/handling said line_item.
