Overview​

DoorDash has enhanced our self-delivery offering to allow merchants with an in-house fleet to provide status updates once an order is out for delivery. This includes both status updates and location tracking.

Step 2: Understand the event types​

Self-delivery order event updates can have the following event types: ORDER_READY_FOR_PICKUP, ORDER_PICKED_UP, ORDER_IS_ARRIVING, and ORDER_DELIVERED

FAQ​

  1. How often can I send courier location updates?

    • DoorDash can accept location updates every 30 seconds.

  2. What event type should be used to send courier location updates?

    • You can continue to use the ORDER_PICKED_UP to update courier locations after the order has been picked up until the courier is close enough to the customer to send the ORDER_IS_ARRIVING event type.
