Unfortunately not for Checkout

So the question is if there are any current automatic shipping calculators that work with Checkout?

[warped ember]

Yes pretty much

Because of the SCA requirement in Europe now

[warped ember]

Thanks for the reply 😅

Did you find easypost through our page on third party shipping platforms? https://stripe.com/partners/apps-and-extensions/shipping

Unfortunately I haven't been able to check out each of those third party extensions to see which work with Checkout but that could be a solid start

[warped ember]

Yes

[warped ember]

Yeh I’m doing that now

Would it be a bad idea to not go through the new checkout route to be able to use easypost?

[north kiln]

If you need SCA support, only the newer flow has it. The older deprecated API does not

I can reach out to my colleagues to see if any of them are aware of a third party integration that works with the current flow

[warped ember]

Hmmm okay… I think I do need SCA support because-

Yes that would be nice 😅

Thank you 🙂

None of those directly manipulate Checkout Sessions, they can calculate shipping rates and you can pass them in via the shipping_rate parameters for Checkout https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-shipping_options

[warped ember]

But this means prior to the checkout session starting I would need the users shipping address to ship to right?

[stone moon]

correct you have to collect this yourself if you use a third-party for shipping calculation

[warped ember]

Okay so I would disable adrress input in the checkout system then of course so that there aren’t conflicting addresses

Right?

[stone moon]

yes

[warped ember]

Wouldn’t shipping_rate_data make more sense in this situation since it’ll most likely always be a different price spat out by the third party? Or am I missing something?

Because shipping rate refers to a pre existing shipping Id

Right?

Okay I think I get what to do now! Correct me if I was wrong btw. Thank you very much for your help 🙂
