Building Dates Array

The dates array must match the subscription duration:

Step 1: Get Available Dates

From Plan Details response, use the dates array:

"dates": ["2025-11-25", "2025-11-26", "2025-11-27"]

Step 2: Get Meal Options

From Plan Details response, use masters to find options for each date:

"masters": [
  {
    "day": "2025-11-25",
    "plan_categories": [
      {
        "name_en": "Breakfast",
        "options": [
          {"id": 101, "product": {...}},
          {"id": 102, "product": {...}}
        ]
      }
    ]
  }
]

Step 3: Build Dates Payload

For each date, customer selects options:

"dates": [
  {
    "date": "2025-11-25",
    "options": [101, 205, 308]  // Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
  },
  {
    "date": "2025-11-26",
    "options": [102, 206, 309]
  }
]

Common Issues

Wrong app-id Header

Problem: Sending sales channel app ID instead of provider app ID

Solution: Use provider's ID from plan's restaurant.id field

Invalid Dates

Problem: Dates don't match plan's available dates

Solution: Use dates from plan details dates array only

Missing Meal Options

Problem: Not enough options selected for some dates

Solution: Validate option count matches daily_num_of_items

Location Not Found

Problem: Invalid location ID

Solution: Verify location was created using Customer Location steps
