Hi. Via the api we’re trying to connect our shipping method which we already achieved, but every order that is assigned our Shipping Method automatically gets a Shipping Name “Manual Order Shipping Method”, this happens through the API or manually in [app.shiphero.com](http://app.shiphero.com). We would like to preserve the Shipping Name that is sent from Shopify or WooCommerce.

Hi EiyaFulfillment!  
Welcome to the community!  
We can go in one of two directions. If you would like more information about the ui, you can create a support ticket. I will be happy to look at your information through the API if you send over the request id.  
Thanks in advance!
