Delete shipping templates

Overview

The Delete shipping templates API lets you permanently remove an existing shipping template from Walmart Marketplace settings.

Endpoint

DELETE <https://marketplace.walmartapis.com/v3/settings/shipping/templates/{templateId}

Function

Use this API when:

  • A custom template is no longer needed
  • Creating consolidated shipping strategies
  • A template was created in error
  • Cleaning up inactive or deprecated configurations

Deleting a template removes it from your account configuration. Ensure the template is not actively assigned to items before you delete the template.

Sample request

url --request DELETE \ --url https://marketplace.walmartapis.com/v3/settings/shipping/templates/templateId \ --header 'accept: application/json'
import requests template_id = "templateId" # replace with the template ID you want to delete
access_token = "<ACCESS_TOKEN>" # replace with a valid OAuth token (if required) url = f"https://marketplace.walmartapis.com/v3/settings/shipping/templates/{template_id}" headers = { "Accept": "application/json", "Authorization": f"Bearer {access_token}",
} resp = requests.delete(url, headers=headers, timeout=30) print("Status:", resp.status_code)
print(resp.text)
resp.raise_for_status()

Modify your code

1. Replace the templateId

Substitute the templateId in the URL with the template ID that you want to delete.

Example

https://marketplace.walmartapis.com/v3/settings/shipping/templates/91233632243720193

2. Add an authentication header

Most Marketplace APIs require authentication. Add your valid access token:

\--header 'Authorization: Bearer \<ACCESS\_TOKEN>'

If your integration requires additional headers (such as consumer ID or correlation ID), include them accordingly.

3. Validate before deleting

Before calling DELETE

  • Confirm the template is not assigned to any active SKUs.
  • (Optional) Retrieve the template using GET to verify the ID is correct.

Sample response

{ "id": "91233632243720193"
}
{ "id": "91233632243720193"
}

Result

  • A successful 200 OK response returns the ID of the deleted template.
  • The template is removed from the seller’s shipping template list.
  • The ID can no longer be assigned to items.
  • If the template was assigned to items, those items may revert to default or require reassignment, depending on the Marketplace behavior.
