The Delivery Options API is triggered through the user buying journey to query your Metapack configuration and show your customers accurate delivery options in real time.
When a shopper purchases an item, the chosen delivery option is stored against the order for fulfilment. The integration enables you to use the Magento Admin app to generate carrier labels and customs documentation for an order.
After the Metapack Magento app is installed and configured, the following additional buttons are displayed on the Order & Account Information page of the Magento Admin app.

Description |
|---|---|
|
Ship |
Clicking this button will use the SOAP Shipping API to create and allocate the shipment in Delivery Manager, based on the shopper’s chosen delivery option. Clicking the button also displays the other buttons outlined in this table. |
|
Print Label |
Clicking this button will use the SOAP Shipping API to generate a PDF carrier label for the order. NoteThis button is displayed only if the Create Label for Parcel parameter is set to Yes. |
|
Print Document |
Clicking this button will use the SOAP Shipping API to generate a PDF customs document for the order. |
|
Void |
Clicking this button will use the SOAP Shipping API to delete the shipment in the Metapack Platform. NoteThe consignment lifecycle used by Delivery Manager and the SOAP Shipping API determines how this button operates. If a shipment is already manifested, clicking this button does not affect anything. |
Note
Depending on the setting of the Create manifest crontab parameter of the Metapack delivery method in the Magento Admin app, orders with printed documentation will be manifested automatically.
