Shopify has introduced a new enum value called CARRIER_PICKED_UP to the FulfillmentEventStatus in API version 2025-10. This new status allows merchants and developers to track the exact moment when a carrier collects a fulfillment from the warehouse or pickup location. Previously, there was no dedicated status to indicate this critical handoff point in the shipping process.
For Shopify developers building fulfillment management systems, this addition fills an important gap in shipment visibility. The CARRIER_PICKED_UP status provides a more granular view of the fulfillment lifecycle, enabling you to offer customers and merchants real-time updates on when their packages are actually in transit with the carrier. This enhanced tracking capability can improve customer communication, reduce support inquiries, and help merchants better manage their logistics operations.
Whether you're building a fulfillment app or integrating Shopify's API into your platform, GetShopifyToken simplifies OAuth authentication so you can focus on implementing new features like enhanced fulfillment tracking without worrying about token management.
