So in the orders UI, when I select Active orders, I see a screen like this:
I’m writing up a little script that grabs these orders and processes them into an excel sheet. I’m trying to replicate the frontend function in the Order API by using the Search Orders call, however, it doesn’t appear there is an easy way to do that with the parameters available.
The closest call I can make is:
curl https://connect.squareup.com/v2/orders/search
-X POST
-H ‘Square-Version: 2020-12-16’
-H ‘Authorization: Bearer REDACTED’
-H ‘Content-Type: application/json’
-d ‘{
“location_ids”: [
“ALocationIDHere”
],
“query”: {
“filter”: {
“state_filter”: {
“states”: [
“OPEN”
]
},
“fulfillment_filter”: {}
}
}
}’
This of course, returns a lot more than the six entries seen here, as apparently the Open state covers a lot more than just these.
I did notice in the URL on the frontend that for “Active” passing in an orderGroup of 1 returns the expected results, but there doesn’t seem to be a way to do this in the API.
How is the status being filtered on, (not the state) and is there an API call that matches the frontend? I’ve gone through the Order documentation, but it’s a little unclear to me.
