On some orders bigcommerce shows a fraud flag.
We have an order management system.
How can we get that flag via the API so that we can see it in our order management system?
The fraud flag appears on an order when the GEO_IP location of the customer and the billing address. If these two locations don't match countries, the flag appears within the control panel.
This isn't available as a true/false value in the API, but you can do the same match to obtain this information or use a third party app like Subuno

I am trying to use eBay's RESTful Sell API and Buy API to make an order management application. To test the API calls, I have successfully created seller and buyer accounts. Further, I have uploaded some inventory from my sellers account and published the offer.
Now I wish to place an order from the buyers account on the items in the same listing. From my understanding, I have to specify the items to be ordered by providing the Item IDs. However, I cannot figure out how to find the Item ID required for purchasing these items. Where can I find the Item ID's corresponding to an offer?
In case this is not the correct approach and there is some alternate way to go about doing this, what steps am I required to take?
Apparently, the itemId is the same as the listingId. The newer RESTful API's make use of the variable listingId to represent an identifier for a published listing. The same variable is referred to by the name itemId in the older, Trading APIs. The value for listingId/itemId is generated when publishing an offer and converting it into a listing. Thus, it can be fetched either at the time of publishing the offer (present in the response under the variable named listingId) or it can be fetched through an order (present in the response under the variable legacyItemId.
I made a Ticketmaster developer account and I would like to pull listing price data for specific events. I am able to retrieve this type of listing data for specific events using Stubhub's API, but looking through Ticketmaster's API documentation, I don't see any specific API requests that will return listing data, such as section, row and listing_price.
Am I missing something, or is it not possible to retrieve this type of listing data using Ticketmaster's API?
For anyone who stumbles upon this in the future, TicketMaster does offer this functionality through their availability endpoint. However you have to be a TM nexus partner to use it, and getting approved as a partner depends on what your business/software does and income etc...
I am querying the Shopify API for a specific order and I would like to know how to determine if the order was placed in our Amazon Seller channel and sent to Shopify as it is described in Shopify's documentation: https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/sell-online/amazon-sales-channel/processing-orders. On the section "Fulfilling Orders" of that page it reads:
All new orders placed through Amazon appear in your orders list and
are marked as Amazon.
A real JSON response from the Order API looks like this: https://help.shopify.com/en/api/reference/orders/order#show
I could not find any indication that the order might come via Amazon. I did find the fulfillment service (just a simple Ctrl F "amazon") but that is a different thing.
Being a Shopify Plus customer we asked their Guru Support team how they implement the "marked as Amazon" part and the response was:
Guru: Looking at all your orders you won't be able to
differentiate. When you click through to a singular order though,
you'll be able to see in its timeline that it came from Amazon instead
of your Online store.
My team: mmm so if I connect though the API
"orders.json?id=xxxx" the only way I can check it came from amazon is
though the timeline?
Guru: As far as I'm aware that's the case. I can check with our
development team to see if there's another indicator. Would I be able
to email you back with any additional findings?
Of course my team is still waiting on an answer from them but I bet someone at SO has already been in this situation before.
Some might want to know why I need to know the order source. We are sending these orders from Shopify into Netsuite via a Celigo connector. Amazon orders need to hit a different GL account than the normal Shopify orders and my task is to code the correct mapping based on some differentiating element or name/value pair from the JSON response.
When an order comes down the JSON has a field called source_name and the value should be something like this: sell-on-amazon
"source_name":"sell-on-amazon"
I am attempting to work on some integration with Shopify and Shippo, part of the process is sending an email to our warehouse including the order line items with the Shipping Label attached as a PDF.
When we create the label in Shippo, the fulfillment information is updated in Shopify correctly, but I was wondering if there was any way to link the two back up reliably from an API perspective since the Shippo API appears to not include any invoice information. I see a link to an internal order object, but the API docs don't seem to stipulate any further information and the Shopify Fulfillment record does not appear to include any Shippo object id.
The only thing I see if the Shippo Order Metadata field which includes the order number, so I suppose I could parse this and make the request to Shopify's API but I would prefer a more concrete link if one is available.
We (I'm working on Shippo's product team) currently don't officially support Shopify Fulfillments with Shippo API label purchases.
That said, we have an Orders API endpoint in beta. The Orders endpoint allows you to retrieve all Orders of a Shippo account, including those imported automatically from Shopify. Each order, like all other Shippo resources, has an object_id field.
When you create a label through the Shippo API's Transaction endpoint, you can link the Order to the Transaction by sending the additional flag order, setting it to the object_id of the corresponding Order (e.g.: { ... "order": "<order-object-id>" ... }). This will trigger the corresponding Fulfillment of the order on its shopping cart platform, in your case Shopify.
Feel free to reach out to product#goshippo.com if you have more questions about this endpoint. Please keep in mind that it is still in closed beta and the endpoint might change in the future.
Through the Bigcommerce API I am trying to upload the carrier along with the tracking number so that the tracking number links to a carriers website. Following the instructions here - Post carrier to Bigcommerce Shipments API - I set the shipping_method to UPS. However, when looking at the shipment information in the Bigcommerce backend, shipping method shows - Other(UPS). Also, the tracking number is not linked to any website.
How do I properly set shipping_method so that it won't be prefixed with Other and the tracking number is linked to that carrier?
This is a limitation of the Shipments API resource. Shipments created via the API always prefix the shipping_methods property with "Other" and do not link the tracking number to the appropriate carrier website. Shipments need to be created via the Control Panel for the tracking number URL to behave as you're describing.
So I did some playing around and it seems that the tracking numbers associated website and the prefix comes from the requested shipping. My first couple of orders were created manually and I did not select a shipping method. However, when I placed an order on the stores frontend and selected a shipping method, shipping_method was then prefixed with the requested carrier. This also happened when I created a manual order in the backend and actually selected a shipping method.
Long story short, it appears to me that the website linked to the tracking number, is associated with the shipping method that the customer selected.
