Delegate carrier calls and credentials to the Integration Platform

Context

Carrier services need credentials without placing secrets in shipping records.

Decision

Use the workspace’s Integration Platform connection for UPS and keep only connection references in Commerce.

Alternatives Considered

Keep carrier credentials and direct UPS calls in Commerce. The cited product decision places carrier invocation and secrets with the Integration Platform.

Provision a Platform binding for each carrier account. The invocation carries a connection reference and does not use a provisioned account binding.

Consequences

Absent connections or grants refuse calls as unavailable. The local fixture does not prove live carrier integration.
