Overview

This node interacts with the Amazon Selling Partner API to update the status of shipments for orders on Amazon marketplaces. It is useful for sellers who need to programmatically update shipment statuses such as 'Ready For Pickup', 'Picked Up', 'At Destination', or 'Delivered' for their orders across various Amazon marketplaces. For example, a seller can automate the process of marking an order as 'Delivered' once the shipment reaches the customer, improving order tracking and customer communication.

Use Case Examples

  1. Updating the shipment status of an order to 'Delivered' on Amazon.com (US) marketplace.
  2. Marking a shipment as 'Picked Up' for an order on Amazon.co.uk (UK) marketplace.
