Selected service ID is not the valid one when reaching orders.create() about duffel-api-javascript HOT 3 CLOSED

Hey @godoyLeonardo! Sorry for the delayed response here. That's a tough one, thanks for sharing that context! We'd need to dig pretty deep to see what ID caused the mismatch. They will change for every offer and they are specific the combination of passenger and segment. Could I recumbent you to try out using our ancillaries component to generate your order creation payload?

Hey! no worries.

At the moment the bug is apparently gone, it only lasted a couple of days and disappeared after I reported it through Slack.

On the other hand, the component looks quite useful, at least for the seat selection part. Is it expected to be used for other services in the future?

And as far as baggage is concerned, we are already managing it through our own interface, so there are no major problems in that aspect. The only "detail" that I have not been told if you have solved, is the possibility of combining different baggage quantities and services in the same order for the same passenger. This was not possible a few weeks ago as I reported on issue #704.

I'm glad it's fixed! And yep, feel free to reach out on Slack too, if you ever get blocked on things.

Absolutely! We've set it up in a way that makes it super easy to add new ancillaries. We'll be adding our protection product to it very soon. And to opt into it, all you need to. do it specify which services you'd like to display (note the services attribute).

There are constraints around service quantities. You'll find that each of the offer.available_services includes a maximum_quantity.Also note that services are specific to particular segments and passengers, that's given by the lists segment_ids and passenger_ids. Finally, baggage services will have types, you cannot include 2 services of the same type for a given passenger/segment. So as long as these constraints are respected, you should be able to create an order with any combination of services. Does that make sense? For example...

If an offer has the following services:
 
ase_1 -> 15kg checked
ase_2 -> 23kg checked
ase_3 -> 10kg  carryon

The only valid combinations are: 

[], [ase_1], [ase_2], [ase_3], [ase1, ase_3], [ase_2, ase_3]

I'm gonna close this one up for now. But, of course, please let us know here or on slack if there's anything else we can answer or help with :)
