shipping_address vs business_address in v1 Locations API

mfarhans — Sun, 16 Jul 2017 23:02:07 GMT

The Connect v1 Location API provides "shipping_address" and "billing_address", which the documentation describes as below.

`business_address`	`GlobalAddress`	The address of the merchant's business.
`shipping_address`	`GlobalAddress`	The merchant's shipping address.

I had some questions around it

1) How to set/change the shipping_address of a Location using the Square Dashboard/POS?. In my account, except for one location, I see the same "shipping_address" being returned for all my Square locations when using v1 Locations API, and I am trying to find how to change it, if at all?. Also just FYI, the v2 Locations api does not have a concept of business vs shipping address, and just returns one address.

2) Whats the intent for shipping_address, and how is it meant to be used by Merchants? Is this the address to send the Card Reader? , or is it for buyers to return any purchased items?. Where does it display (e.g. Online Store, Receipt)?

Thanks,

Farhan
