Webhook for receiving order shipping updates (tracking, status)

I am trying to receive shipping updates (tracking info, status) on orders that are updated via the admin console. I would’ve thought that the “fulfillments/create” webhook would have been triggered based on the documentation and some other answers for these updates, but when I make these changes on a test order on my test store, no webhook is fired.

I have deployed my app, confirmed the version that is live has the subscriptions, and confirmed other webhooks are working. I also used the CLI shopify app webhook trigger --topic command and am able to receive it just fine.

Is this not the correct webhook subscription? I also tried “fulfillment_events/create”, and “fulfillments/update”, but neither of those are fired either.

Any help is very much appreciated. Thanks!

The fulfillments/update topic should trigger for any changes to the shipment status, which will be surfaced in the shipment_status field
