Send fulfillment request

The Send fulfillment request action sends a request to fulfill products to a fulfillment service for the order that triggers the workflow. The Send fulfillment request action only functions with third-party fulfillment service apps.

If an order contains products that can't be fulfilled by a fulfillment service, then Flow records them as failed requests. In orders that contain both products that can be fullfilled by a service and products that can't be fulfilled by a service, then requests are sent for those products that can be fulfilled.

Note

The Send fulfillment request action doesn't function for products that are set to use Amazon Multi-Channel Fulfillment (MCF) or custom fulfillment services.
