Carrier Service Response Metadata

[KyleG-Shopify]

Hey @Brad_Kubie, the REST docs you linked don’t include a metadata field in the carrier service response. The correct field is metafields, which is documented in the GraphQL CarrierService docs. GraphQL is the preferred method for interacting with Shopify APIs. About REST to GraphQL migration

A similar question was just answered here: Metafields in carrierService response That thread covers the correct metafields format and where they’re accessible.

@Steven

Note: presently, these metafields are not persisted beyond their association to delivery options past checkout.

The metafields can be read in Checkout UI Extensions on the Shipping Option from the Delivery API.

The metafields on carrier service rates are modelled like metafields on delivery option function results: they are not persisted past checkout and used to inform logic in Checkout UI Extensions.

I can see how your request would be valuable and useful and I have passed that on as a feature request.
