Quick Summary

The exclude_fields parameter in the EPRateCheckingBulk endpoint is designed to remove specific data fields (like drop-off points) from the response payload, but it cannot be used to filter or exclude specific courier companies. Currently, the EasyParcel SG API returns all available couriers based on your shipment criteria. To narrow down courier options, developers must handle filtering on their application's side after receiving the full API response. This understanding is relevant to Singapore businesses looking to optimize their custom shipping checkout or backend fulfillment logic.

If you're integrating EasyParcel’s API and looking to narrow down courier options in your API response, perhaps to exclude specific couriers, you might wonder if there’s a way to do this using the exclude_fields parameter. Unfortunately, this functionality is not currently supported. Here’s what you need to know.

What does exclude_fields it do?

The exclude_fields parameter in the API request is used to exclude specific data fields (e.g., drop-off points, pick-up points) from the response payload in EPRateCheckingBulk endpoint, helping you reduce payload size or simplify the data returned.

However, it does not allow you to filter out specific courier companies from the returned list.

Courier filtering not supported (Yet)

At this time, the EasyParcel API:

Returns all available couriers based on your shipment criteria (e.g., postcode, weight, parcel size).
Does not allow filtering or excluding specific courier companies in the request.

This means you’ll need to handle courier filtering on your end, after receiving the full API response.
