Hi @Rudrava 

In Shopify's API, the fulfillment_status field within an order object indicates the fulfillment state of the entire order. If this field returns null, it signifies that the order is unfulfilled.

The fulfillments array contains individual fulfillment records. An empty array ([]) indicates that no fulfillments have been created for the order.

To access fulfillment details:

1-Ensure Fulfillments Exist: Verify that fulfillments have been created for the orders in question. Without fulfillments, the fulfillments array will be empty, and fulfillment_status may remain null.

2-Use the Correct API Endpoint: Retrieve order details, including fulfillment information, by making a GET request to the Orders API endpoint:

  • REST API: GET /admin/api/2023-10/orders/{order_id}.json
  • GraphQL API: Query the order object with the necessary fields.

3-Check API Permissions: Ensure your API client has the necessary permissions (read_orders and read_fulfillments) to access fulfillment data.

4-Review Fulfillment Events: If you're tracking the status of fulfillments, consider using the Fulfillment Events API to access events related to a fulfillment's lifecycle.

By following these steps, you should be able to access and verify the fulfillment_status values and related fulfillment information for your orders using Shopify's APIs.
