Shipment Events
Detailed reference for all shipment webhook events including payload examples for each event type.
Shipment events notify you about changes to shipments throughout the fulfillment lifecycle. All shipment events only fire for shipments associated with a completed, non-declined transaction — you will never receive a webhook for a shipment that hasn't been paid for.
Every shipment webhook payload follows this structure:
{
"webhook_type": "shipment",
"webhook_event": "shipment_scheduled",
"webhook_event_id": 12345,
"webhook_event_date": "2026-03-22 14:30:00",
"webhook_event_subtype": null,
"webhook_data": {
"shipment": { ... }
}
}The webhook_data.shipment object includes the full shipment record with nested shipment_items and customer_address_shipping.
