Known issues
General
Issue: In Swagger, the text area that contains the payload structure of some POST and PUT operations is not displayed. If a fraction of the text area is displayed, you can click on it to display the payload structure in a text area in the center of the page. If the text area is not displayed at all, then you cannot access the payload structure.
Workaround: Use the static Swagger site at /devdocs/2.2/swagger to navigate to the REST call you want to use, then copy the payload structure to your Swagger instance.
Magento Shipping issues
We’ve identified the following unresolved issues with this version of Magento Shipping:
Issue: Merchants should not use Magento Shipping to connect with FedEx at this time. This option will be removed by Friday, December 15, and any existing shipping options tied to FedEx will no longer work at that time. We will be re-enabling FedEx integration through Magento Shipping at a future date.
Issue: Currency conversion problem for shipping methods during checkout when store supports multiple currencies.
Workaround: Ensure that the experience currency, base currency, and display currency are the same. Additionally, incorporate these best practices into your shipping method configuration by ensuring that:
- the Magento Core base currency is the same as the experience currency (Store > Configuration > Currency Set Up > Base Current).
- the Magento Core base currency converter is the same as the experience and base currency (Store > Currency Rates)
Issue: Selecting a shipping method at checkout can sometimes result in two shipping methods being selected. This issue occurs during checkout. When a user selects a shipping method during checkout, Magento will select two shipping methods.
Workaround: Ensure that no two rules with a ‘Show Shipping Method’ outcome can both apply to the scenario. Consider these example rules:
- Rule 1: Show ‘Free Shipping’ for Country is Canada and Cost is not greater than $99.99
- Rule 2: Show ‘Free Shipping’ for Country is not Canada and Cost is greater than $100
