Market-driven shipping now available in feature preview
Shopify developer change
MerchantDiff detected this entry in Shopify's official developer changelog on July 01, 2026.
This Shopify update is categorized as Action Required, API, New, GraphQL Admin API, 2026-07.
What changed
Market-driven shipping moves merchant-owned shipping configuration out of delivery profiles and into Markets. Merchants will attach shipping options directly to each market, and then vary rates by product and location conditions within a single option. This makes checkout rate behavior more predictable and easier to understand. What this means for your app: Merchant shipping configuration (today’s merchant delivery profiles) moves from the delivery profile API to the Markets API. App delivery profiles (delivery profiles created by apps) keep using the delivery profile API.
