Units of Measurement

API Queries (How To)
1

Hello, I’m trying to use the dimensions of products on orders through the API, and I can’t seem to find the possible values of ‘dimensions_unit’, since only ‘cm’ seems to be used anywhere in the documentation. Would somebody be able to let me know the value that would come through when inches are used? If there are any other possible values, these would be useful to know as well.

Many thanks.

I would have thought that cm isthe sensible unit of measure to use. I cannot imagine why you would want to use inches, I think that the main purpose of the dimensions is to enable the purchasing of shipping labels from such as Royal Mail and they all work in cms
