Question

I am trying to Create a Shopify Order using Api this is my code :
$arrOrder= array(
"email"=> "foo#example.com",
"fulfillment_status"=> "fulfilled",
"send_receipt"=> true,
"send_fulfillment_receipt"=> true,
"line_items"=> array(
array(
"product_id"=>875744960642,
"variant_id"=> 3558448932592,
"quantity"=> 1
)
),
"customer"=> array(
"id"=> 458297751235
),
"financial_status"=> "pending"
); echo json_encode($arrOrder);
echo "<br />";
$url = "https://AkiKey:Password#Store.myshopify.com/admin/api/2021-01/orders.json";
$curl = curl_init();
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-Type: application/json'));
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, 0);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, "POST");
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, json_encode($arrOrder));
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
$response = curl_exec($curl);
curl_close($curl);
echo "<pre>";
print_r($response);
and the response is :
{"errors":{"order":"Required parameter missing or invalid"}}

I think there is some data mismatch that is sent using API Call, according to the documentation this the format to create an order.
So I think your request is something like this one demo code
$arrOrder= [
"order" =>[
"email" => "foo#example.com",
"fulfillment_status" => "fulfilled",
"send_receipt" => true,
"send_fulfillment_receipt" => true,
"line_items" => [
[
"product_id" => 875744960642,
"variant_id" => 3558448932592,
"quantity" => 1
]
],
"customer" => [
"id"=> 458297751235
],
"financial_status"=> "pending"
]
];
