Updating a Delivery

Open Recipe

After creating a draft job, use the PATCH /jobs/{job_id}/deliveries endpoint to edit a delivery. Please note that our system currently exclusively supports single pickup jobs, so any modifications to pickup fields in a delivery will be universally applied to all associated deliveries on the same job.

During the Draft status, you have the flexibility to edit all aspects of a delivery.

Upon the confirmation of the job, which makes it available to couriers, a refined set of editable fields is enforced. Subsequently, only fields that do not affect the pricing are allowed to be modified. Below is a comprehensive list of statuses along with the editable aspects of the delivery:

Draft: All aspects of the delivery can be edited.
Booked: Pickup and drop-off fields that do not affect the quote.
Courier Proposed: Pickup and drop-off fields that do not affect the quote.
Accepted by Courier: Pickup and drop-off fields that do not affect the quote.
At Pickup: Drop-off fields that do not affect the quote.
En Route: Drop-off fields that do not affect the quote.

For additional information on job statuses, please refer to the Job Statuses page.

Updating the Delivery Sequence

If the job that you're adding the delivery to has a fixed sequence and the update to the delivery changes the sequence_number then the overall sequence of the deliveries will be adjusted accordingly.

Below is a list of scenarios along with how the sequence will be adjusted:

Scenario	Impact on Sequence
Sequence number is updated to be greater than the current value.	All deliveries with a sequence number greater than the original value and less than or equal to the new value will have their sequence numbers decreased by 1.
Sequence number is updated to be less than the current value.	All deliveries with a sequence number less than the original value and greater than or equal to the new value of the updated delivery will have their sequence numbers increased by 1.
