Shipment created

A new shipment was dispatched (order-bound or external).

When this fires

Fires whenever the underlying state change happens on the platform.

Sample payload

This is the exact envelope shape we POST to your endpoint — outer wrapper plus the per-event data payload. Field values are randomised on each render so you see the general shape, not a fixed example.
