This article will focus on Miravia's own delivery service, which is called “Delivery by Miravia”, from now on referred to as DBM. There is a difference in the execution when compared to other delivery services Whilst other marketplaces ask sellers to deliver large shipments of a specific item to the marketplaces' fulfillment center, Miravia uses a “last mile delivery” principle. This means that you have to ship each individual order that uses DBM to a pre-specified warehouse that Miravia uses, and Miravia delivers the parcel to the customer for the last couple of miles.
Channable supports DBM for the Miravia API and order connection, and this article will explain step by step which actions you have to take to set this up.
Before setup in Channable
Miravia deploys three different fulfillment types, Standard, Express & Economy. Before pushing your items, you have to enable these delivery services in your Miravia Seller Center:
Setup in Channable
Create listings with the Delivery by Miravia [DBM] delivery option
- To set this up you first have to go to the Build step op the Miravia API. Here, you make sure to set Delivery by Seller to No.
- Now go to the Attributes step of the Miravia API and indicate the delivery service by setting the fields for earlier activated types to “Yes”.
Handle DBM-orders through Channable
We are able to fetch DBM-orders and send them to your back-end. However, Miravia does require Channable to transmit shipping labels to you. Therefore, we have created a special flow for this.
- First, you have to go to the order in the Channable tool, where you can click on "Shipment confirmation".
- Here you fill in the tracking code and the transporter, after which you click "send shipment confirmation".
- We will expose the shipping label URL to you and set the order to “shipped” in Miravia. You then have 10 minutes to download the shipping label, using that specific URL. This shipping label will contain the address of the Miravia-warehouse that the order needs to be shipped to. The video below shows how this flow is implemented in Channable:
-
The order will be set to "Shipped" in Miravia and the tracking information will be transmitted to the buyer.
