Clients can create orders and send them to the couriers. The Couriers can create orders on behalf of the clients.

To create an order pair, you would need to create both pickup and dropoff pair of tasks.

The top level body fields requires pickupTask and dropoffTask as top level fields. The order pairs of tasks will automatically be directed to the courier's Onfleet dashboard for delivery assignment. For more tasks fields information please also see Create task to get familiarized with the Task Object.

The top level fields for a create order payload:

deliveryServiceId	string	Required only if there is a Service/Rate existing for the client
price	number	Optional. The unit of currency assigned.
currency	string	Optional. Any currency unit.
client	string	Required when using this endpoint as a courier

The recipient can be left blank if there is no recipient for any of the task pairs. If there is a recipient for any of the tasks, then these are the Required recipient field for each task:

phone	string	Required. A unique, valid phone number as per the organization’s country if there's no leading + sign. If a phone number has a leading + sign, it will disregard the organization's country setting.

Destination is a required field, with address sub-field(s). You have to choose either the unparsed field, or spell out the address components, for example if you have address.number, you will need to supply the rest of the address component.

Task, Destination, and Recipient objects
In order to make an order pair, you can just use the Skeleton JSON payload and swap out the values for your orders.
