Returns all available shipping rates for a shipment object.
When you create a new valid shipment object, Shippo automatically calculates all available rates. Depending on your shipment data, there may be none, one or multiple rates.
By default, the calculated rates will return the price in two currencies under the amount
and amount_local
keys, respectively. The amount
key will contain the price of a rate expressed in the currency that is used in the country from where the parcel originates, and the amount_local
key will contain the price expressed in the currency that is used in the country the parcel is shipped to. You can request rates with prices expressed in a different currency by adding the currency code to the end of the resource URL. The full list of supported currencies along with their codes can be viewed on open exchange rates.
Note: re-requesting the rates with a different currency code will re-queue the shipment (i.e. set the Shipment's status
to QUEUED
) and the converted currency rates will only be available when the Shipment's status
is set to SUCCESS
.
