Idempotent with Idempotency-Key header. Learn more

Updates a service level's name, code, customer portal visibility, or default status.

Only the fields you send are changed. System-owned service levels cannot be updated.

Permissions requiredValues:carriers:update
The role behind your API key or agent must grant every one of these permissions.
carrier_idstring

The carrier that owns this service level.

idstring

Service level ID.

include[]optional arrayenumValues:ownerowner.account

Sub-objects to expand in the response. When omitted, sub-objects are returned as null.

nameoptional string

Human-readable name for the service level, shown to customers at checkout when the service level is visible.

codeoptional string

Carrier-specific code identifying this service level (e.g. fedex_ground).

Must be unique among the carrier's service levels. For a service level synced from a connected carrier the service_level_token used for rating is fixed by the carrier and a code change does not affect it; for one you created yourself, the token follows the code.

customer_portal_visibilityoptional stringenumValues:visiblehidden

Whether customers can see and select this service level at checkout in the customer portal.

is_defaultoptional boolean

Whether this is the carrier's default service level, pre-selected when the carrier is chosen.

Each carrier has at most one default; setting this to true clears the carrier's existing default.

default_transit_daysoptional integernullable

Business days this service typically takes in transit, used to work an order's ship-by date back from a promised delivery date.

A fallback: when a carrier can rate the lane, the transit it quotes is used instead. Set to null to remove it, which leaves transit unknown for lanes the carrier cannot rate. Send null to clear.

idstring

Service level ID.

objectstringenumValues:service_level

Resource type identifier.

namestring

Human-readable name for the service level, shown to customers at checkout when the service level is visible.

service_level_tokenstring

Carrier-specific code identifying this service level (e.g. fedex_ground, ups_next_day_air).

For service levels synced from a connected carrier this is the carrier's own token, which is what rate shopping and label purchase are keyed on; for service levels you create yourself it is the code you supplied.

customer_portal_visibilitystringenumValues:visiblehidden

Whether customers can see and select this service level at checkout in the customer portal.

is_defaultboolean

Whether this is the carrier's default service level, pre-selected when the carrier is chosen.

Each carrier has at most one default; setting a new default clears the previous one. A default service level cannot be deleted until another service level takes its place or the flag is cleared.

default_transit_daysintegernullable

Business days this service typically takes in transit, used to work an order's ship-by date back from a promised delivery date.

A fallback for lanes the carrier has not quoted. Null means transit is unknown for this service rather than instant, so a ship-by date falls back to the promised delivery date itself.
