Shipment_status questions

Is the status value of the fulfillments > shipping_status field automatically updated according to the delivery status of the courier? I wonder if I have to change it to API delivered status or if it works automatically when the delivery is completed.

“orders”: [
{

“fulfillments”: [
{
“id”: 4860633317679,
“shipment_status”: “delivered”,

Hi Weap0n7,

The shipment_status of a fulfillment in Shopify is automatically updated if you’re using a supported carrier and the carrier provides tracking updates. However, if you’re not using a supported carrier or if the carrier does not provide tracking updates, you may need to manually update the shipment_status field using the API.

If the shipment_status field is set to delivered, that means the carrier has reported the package as delivered.

Hope this helps!

Hi Liam, can you please confirm if when the carrier reports the package as “delivered”, will this trigger an event to the Fulfillments/Update webhook?
