Next Couriers

In AfterShip Tracking, if a shipment has multiple carriers, you can use the next_couriers field to specify the second carrier directly. This is useful when the first carrier does not provide such information to AfterShip.

This documentation describes how to define the next_couriers information for the shipments imported by Commerce API.
