Change the State of a Return Package in the Sandbox
Important
The Buy with Prime API is offered as a preview and might change as we receive feedback and iterate on the interfaces. We are sharing this early documentation to help you learn about the Buy with Prime API as we write and iterate on the content.
In the sandbox environment, you call the mutation updateOrderReturns to move a return package through various states to publish events without making real-world changes. For example, you can test how your application handles a RETURN_PACKAGE_DELIVERED event without actually delivering and then returning a package by setting the return package state to DELIVERED.
The response to updateOrderReturns contains the current order. You must wait for the state change to happen, and then you can query the order for the updated details. T
Reference: updateOrderReturns
updateOrderReturnsIn the sandbox environment, you can make the following state transitions to returns by calling updateOrderReturns.
| Input argument | Current state | Next state | Expected events | Expected wait |
|---|---|---|---|---|
ReturnDeliveryDetails | CREATED | IN_TRANSIT | RETURN_PACKAGE_IN_TRANSIT | 2 minutes |
ReturnDeliveryDetails | CREATED | DROPPED_OFF (for returns through drop-off locations) | REFUND_REQUESTED | 2 minutes |
ReturnDeliveryDetails | DROPPED_OFF | IN_TRANSIT | RETURN_PACKAGE_IN_TRANSIT | 2 minutes |
ReturnDeliveryDetails | IN_TRANSIT | DELIVERED | RETURN_PACKAGE_DELIVERED, REFUND_REQUESTED | 2 minutes |
ReturnDeliveryDetails | IN_TRANSIT | FAILED | 2 minutes | |
ReturnDeliveryDetails | FAILED,DELIVERED | None, this is a terminal state. | 2 minutes | |
ReturnLineItem | grading: any update | RETURN_ITEM_GRADED | 2 minutes |

Prerequisites
- Create a Buy with Prime Order.
- Trigger fulfillment by doing one of the following:
- In the
createOrdercall, set thedesiredExecutionStateasSTARTED. - Trigger fulfillment for an existing order.
- In the
- Update all of the packages in the order to
DELIVERED. For details, see Update multiple packages as DELIVERED. - Using the Merchant Online Return Center, create a return for all or some of the items. For details, see Create returns on behalf of customer.

updateOrderReturns(orderIdentifier: $orderIdentifier, input: $input) {
order {

Update a return package as IN_TRANSIT
Events published: RETURN_PACKAGE_IN_TRANSIT
The following example shows how to move either of the following types of packages to IN_TRANSIT:
- For a return package that doesn’t use a drop-off location, the example moves the return package from
CREATEDtoIN_TRANSIT. - For a return package which uses a drop-off location, the example moves the return package from
DROPPED_OFFtoIN_TRANSIT.
