New Feature: Drop-off contact's extension number

:new: What’s new?

You can now include the pin-code or extension number of your drop-off contacts using our new API field.

:bulb: How does it work?

When creating a job using our job creation endpoint, you are now able to specify within the dropoffs_contact object the new phone_pin_code field.

New payload example:

{
    "job": {
        "pickups": [
          ...
        ],
        "dropoffs": [
            {
              "contact": {
                    "firstname": "Jane",
                    "lastname": "Doe",
                    "phone": "+33712222222",
                    "phone_pin_code": "12345678",
                    "email": "client3@email.com",
                    "company": "Sample Company Inc."
              }
         ]
    }
}

If a pin-code has been specified, when the courier attempts to call your dropoffs_contact the phone_pin_code will be automatically dialled requiring no further action from our couriers.

:magic_wand: What’s the impact?

Previously, our couriers did not have the ability to dial pin-codes within the Stuart courier app.

This meant when trying to dial a number with a pin-code, calls were made outside of the our application and on personal devices meaning our courier’s number may not be masked.

Now, our couriers will also be able to reach delivery partners and aggregators with pin-codes within the Stuart courier app.
