Using Shopify Flow To Update Fulfillment Location?

[nmittels]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has used Shopify flow to change fulfillment location based on shipping criteria. Right now it seems as though all fulfillments for our "Online" orders get assigned to one default location, even if the other location is closer to the shipping address. I would like to create a rule where if an order is created and the shipping location is in province A, the fulfillment location gets set to fulfillment location A, if it is in shipping province B it is assigned to fulfillment location B and so on, but I can't quite see what the best way to set that is. Any advice?

It's possible if you use Send HTTP Request to call this mutation: https://shopify.dev/api/admin-graphql/2022-10/mutations/fulfillmentOrderMove. I'd recommend you use the Order Ready to Fulfill trigger, since it runs on 1 fulfillment order.

What might this look like? I'm trying to create a flow to automatically reassign the fulfillment location of some amazon orders that are being brought in from the Marketplace Connect app and the shipment routing is ignoring all the settings at this time. My orders are tagged when they are created through the app and I'm hoping to use those tags to identify which orders to change the location on.

If you wait a bit, there is an action in the works for "Move fulfillment order" so you don't have to use Send HTTP Request.

That would be fantastic. Any idea of the timeline?

I can't promise a timeframe but it is being tested now.
