Fulfillment Request Failed 403 Error

Hello, I just set up a shop, and on one of the two suppliers I have set, I keep getting an error message emailed to me stating:

Fulfillment requests from shop ‘shopName’ fulfillment service ‘dropShipper’ Fulfillment failed. The requests failed with status code 403 and will not be retried.

The fulfillment service is receiving the information, but they are unable to update the orders page in my Shopify account.

The last timeline items that displays for the order is:

Fulfillment of 1 item was requested from Fulfillment ‘dropShipper’

Has anyone run into this or have any suggestions on a fix?

Note: I edited out my shops name and the fulfillment services name.

Hi @JakeTen ,

Thanks for reaching out to the Community. I’d be happy to provide some assistance with this request, to ensure it gets resolved. To gather a bit more information, have you activated the fulfillment suppliers from within the ‘shipping and delivery’ section of the Shopify admin?

If so, could you please share a bit more information on the fulfillment service being used?

I look forward to your response.

I’m using a dropshipping app called VelvetShip. They are not listed in ‘shipping and delivery’, but they are listed in ‘locations’ and ‘apps and sales channels’ with permissions set to:

Edit orders

All order details for the last 60 days, draft orders, order fulfillments, assigned fulfillment, merchant managed fulfillment, or third-party fulfillment
