Description

weight_min

integer

The minimum weight in grams a shipment should have for this service rate to apply to it.

weight_max

integer

The maximum weight in grams a shipment should have for this service rate to apply to it.

length_max

integer

The maximum length of the shipment in mm.

width_max

integer

The maximum width of the shipment in mm.

height_max

integer

The maximum height of the shipment in mm.

volume_max

float

The maximum volume of the shipment in liters (dm3).

is_dynamic

filter[weight]

integer

Weight in grams to filter on. This will only return service-rates for which the following is true weight_min filter[weight] weight_max. Service rates with a weight bracket will have their bracket_price calculated with this weight, you can find this in the meta of each rate.

filter[volume]

float

Volume in liters (dm3) to filter on. Use together with weight filter for the most accurate results. This is used to calculate the volumetric weight, using the volumetric_weight_divisor of the related service. (only applies to service-rates for services that use volumetric_weight).

filter[service]
