Our Onfleet integration has been built to work seamlessly with our local delivery functionality. It's perfect for both scheduled and on-demand orders.
Requirements

You must have an active Onfleet account and API key.
Follow the Onfleet API support guide to create one.
You must have our delivery date and time picker enabled.
Delivery slots must be at least an hour long (e.g. 9:00AM-10:00AM, 2:00PM-5:00PM)
In Shopify Admin > Checkout > Customer information, Shipping address phone number setting needs to be marked as a required field.
How does the integration work?
When the order is created within Zapiet - Pickup + Delivery, we will automatically create two connected tasks within Onfleet.
The first will be a pickup task (optional) that contains your bricks and mortar stores address.
The second will be a delivery task that contains your customer's home address.
Both tasks will contain your Shopify order number, the items ordered, and an order note.
Tracking information will appear on the Shopify order page when the order is created or when it's marked as “Out for delivery”, according to your integration settings.

The option to automatically assign tasks to one of your currently active workers, that is, workers who are idle or in transit in the dashboard.
The load mode walks the distance from the active worker's last-known location to their active task, if there is one, and through to each of the ordered destinations corresponding to the worker's assigned tasks, with the final computation being from their last-assigned task to the newly-created one. The worker who has to travel the shortest distance is considered to have the lightest load, and as such will be assigned the task being created.
