EasyPost - Carrier API not available
Here is a list of possible root causes for this error:
the carrier is undergoing maintenance. In this case, try to re-issue the label
the API key you entered might be invalid.
Emojis or invalid characters in customer address
We love using emojis, yes, and so do you. 🤩❤️👌🏻
However, this can cause issues generating a prepaid return label for USPS. Namely, if a customer has an emoji in their name, this will cause the mentioned error to be brought to light, and a label will not be able to be generated.
In this case, you can manually enter the customer settings and edit the customer details (delete the emoji). Re-issuing the label is now possible! Feel free to include emojis in your support emails; we love them. ⭐

EasyPost - DHL Express - Special Services Code PT
If you've ever encountered this error, it's time to shed some light on it.
The "Special Services Code PT" error only shows up for the " ExpressEasy " rate available on DHL Express. To resolve it - change the rate to another one, e.g., "DomesticExpress", or whatever suits you most.
If you want to keep the "ExpressEasy" rate, disable "Create dedicated Return Labels" in the configuration dialog for EasyPost in your Rich Returns dashboard. This rate does not support Return Labels.
EasyPost - USPS (Rates found but specified carrier rate not found for this shipment)
Have you encountered the following error message: Rates found but specified carrier rate (X) not found for this shipment, where X is the carrier rate?
If so, you've come to the right place. The value of the items in the shipment exceeds USPS's limit for the rate you're using. This is why we cannot create a label, and the error message keeps popping up.
In instances like this one, you can revert to the following options:
issue a label directly inside your EasyPost account and send it to the customer manually;
temporarily use a different rate for these shipments and then revert to the current rate you're using (the one that's giving you the headache!).
This should do the trick. If not, we're always here to assist.
