The Get Quote request requires a pickup and/or a dropoff time to be passed by the partner. These are defined in the request as "pickup_time" & "drop_time" respectively. If only one is provided in the request, the other value will be automatically calculated by Skipcart & returned in the Get Quote response.

Pickup time should be used if the pickup time is known by the partner and the partner does not wish for this to be auto calculated.

Dropoff time should be used when a delivery time has been provided to the end user (consumer) and the partner does not wish for this to be auto calculated.

Both fields can be passed in the request, but if the time Skipcart calculates is longer than the time between what is provided in the request then Skipcart will adjust the dropoff time in the response. Similarly, the pickup time will be adjusted if the time provided is too soon for Skipcart to accomodate.

❗️
All partner generated requests to Skipcart should be formatted in the UTC Date/Time format
Additionally, pickup and delivery addresses passed Get Quote must match the pickup and delivery addresses submitted on Create Order.
