Shippit is excited to announce these improvements and bug fixes. For an overview of the features released this month, see the Release Notes on the Shippit Help Centre.

Improvements

• The v3 Order API now accepts tags on the order, on each parcel_attributes item, and on each product_attributes item. Tags are free-form labels you use to organise and filter orders. Shippit stores them in lowercase, limits each tag to 255 characters, and caps each order, parcel, or product line at 250 tags. The order response returns the tags you set, and orders keep their tags when you reorder them. You can also build smart shipping rules that match on these tags to automate carrier allocation. The field is additive and backward compatible. For more information, see the order tags section of the Developer Guide.
