Update a dispatch last mile delivery order

PUT /v2/fulfillment/lastmile/orders/{order_id}

Updates a dispatch last mile delivery order.

To successfully perform this operation, the order's status value must be brand_new. In other words, once a shopper is assigned and status moves to acknowledged, you can no longer use this endpoint to update the order.

You can change the delivery window, order details, and the pre-delivery tip amount.

When changing your desired delivery window, use the start_at and end_at fields. Your desired window must be a minimum one hour window that starts and ends on the hour.
