Why isn't my discount applying correctly in REST API with PHP?

Shopify Discussion
1

hello i am using REST API in php.

I have a problem when creating an order (draft) despite the fact that I give a discount in accordance with doc. the discount is not suitable.

I am sending something like this:

{
    "email": "testujedarek@pocztavp.pl",
    "line_items": [
        {
            "variant_id": "31626267426921",
            "quantity": "3",
            "applied_discount": {
                "value_type": "fixed_amount",
                "value": 142,
                "amount": 426,
                "title": "Promo",
                "description": "Promo"
            }
        }
    ],
    "shipping_address": {
        "first_name": "Darek",
        "last_name": "Test",
        "address1": "Test 1",
        "phone": "123123123",
        "city": "Test",
        "zip": "12-123",
        "country": "Poland"
    },
    "shipping_line": {
        "title": "Kurier",
        "price": 0
    }
}

There is someone who can help me.

Thanks!!

Hi @pstanek

I checked your issue and thought the problem could have been caused by missing data when you created the draft order.

This is a sample data that Shopify provides

You can double-check your data and refer to this material: https://shopify.dev/api/admin-rest/2022-10/resources/draftorder#post-draft-orders.

Feel free to let me know if you need any further help.

in documentacion write is:

[

{
“variant_id”: “31626267426921”, “quantity”: “3”,

}
]

i Add,

“applied_discount”: { “value_type”: “fixed_amount”, “value”: 142, “amount”: 426, “title”: “Promo”, “description”: “Promo” }

More i not need, Anyway, they are not required. What you gave is not a batch data, but a response …

Hi @pstanek

You can try again with the following data: (wrap the draft_order attribute outside, change the variant_id to match the store)

{
"draft_order":{
    "email": "testujedarek@pocztavp.pl",
    "line_items": [
        {
            "variant_id": "39635639107745",
            "quantity": "3",
            "applied_discount": {
                "value_type": "fixed_amount",
                "value": 142,
                "amount": 426,
                "title": "Promo",
                "description": "Promo"
            }
        }
    ],
    "shipping_address": {
        "first_name": "Darek",
        "last_name": "Test",
        "address1": "Test 1",
        "phone": "123123123",
        "city": "Test",
        "zip": "12-123",
        "country": "Poland"
    },
    "shipping_line": {
        "title": "Kurier",
        "price": 0
    }
}
}

I tested it, and it’s successful. The following is the result:

Hi @pstanek

I see that your data still does not have the “draft_order” attribute, you can copy the following code and run it again:

{
"draft_order":{
    "email": "3eb4obnt63953452mxzacq5r@pocztavp.pl",
    "line_items": [
        {
            "variant_id": "42826415341822",
            "quantity": "3",
            "applied_discount": {
                "value_type": "fixed_amount",
                "value": 149,
                "amount": 447,
                "title": "Promo",
                "description": "Promo"
            }
        }
    ],
    "shipping_address": {
        "first_name": "test",
        "last_name": "test",
        "address1": "test1",
        "phone": "121212",
        "city": "test",
        "zip": "testt",
        "country": "Poland"
    },
    "shipping_line": {
        "title": "Kurier",
        "price": 0
    }
}
}

If you still have a bug, I suggest you to check call API with Postman software. Thanks

I found a bug.

The discount is removed when sending only “note_attributes”.

So when posting a “note_attributes” I have to send it once it’s line_iteam and is work.

“draft_order” attribute it is injected directly by the library php so it’s not here.
