# Shipping Rate

{% hint style="info" %}
Shipping Rate task is available only on Advanced Shopify plan or higher.
{% endhint %}

With this task you can create your custom shipping rates returned on checkout shipping step. Task allows creating complex logic to calculate shipping rate based on:

* cart items 
* shipping address
* customer (Shopify Script Editor required)

Incoming request has following format: 

```
  {
    "rate": {
      "origin": {
        "country": "CA",
        "postal_code": "K2P1L4",
        "province": "ON",
        "city": "Ottawa",
        "name": null,
        "address1": "150 Elgin St.",
        "address2": "",

          "quantity": 1,
          "grams": 1000,
