Overview

The Get shipping configurations API retrieves account-level shipping profile settings associated with a seller.

Endpoint

GET https://marketplace.walmartapis.com/v3/settings/shippingprofile

Function

This API helps you:

  • Retrieve fulfillment lag time (handling time) settings
  • View category-level lag time configurations
  • Audit shipping profile information
  • Confirm seller identity information related to shipping configuration
  • Validate configuration before updating shipping or item settings

This API returns your current shipping profile configuration.

Sample request

curl --request GET \ --url https://marketplace.walmartapis.com/v3/settings/shippingprofile \ --header 'accept: application/json'
import requests url = "https://marketplace.walmartapis.com/v3/settings/shippingprofile" headers = { "accept": "application/json", "Authorization": "Bearer <ACCESS_TOKEN>",
} response = requests.get(url, headers=headers) print(response.status_code)
print(response.text)

Modify your code

Add an authentication header

Include a valid access token:

--header 'Authorization: Bearer <ACCESS_TOKEN>'

If your integration requires additional headers (consumer ID, correlation ID, or any other Walmart header), include them accordingly.

Sample response

{ "partner": { "partnerId": "100009", "partnerName": "The seller's legal name", "partnerDisplayName": "The seller name shown on walmart.com", "partnerStoreId": "Partner/Seller ID for Walmart store URL" }, "configurations": [ { "configurationName": "LAG_TIME", "configuration": { "categories": [ { "name": "Art & Craft", "fulfillmentLagTime": 2 }, { "name": "Garden & Patio", "fulfillmentLagTime": 3 } ] } } ]
}

Result

  • Returns seller identity information under partner.
  • Returns shipping configuration settings under configurations.
    • Example:
      • Category Art & Craft has a fulfillment lag time of 2 days
      • Category Garden & Patio has a fulfillment lag time of 3 days
  • Fulfillment lag time directly impacts:
  • Estimated ship dates
  • Delivery promises
  • Order processing timelines

This configuration influences how quickly items are expected to ship after an order is placed.
