Error message

Shipping option with ID ${shippingOption.id} do not have a price

What it means

addShippingMethodToCartWorkflow validates that every shipping option in the input has a calculated price for the cart's context (region/currency). Without a calculated_price the shipping method cannot be priced, so the step aborts with invalid_data.

Solutions

1. Verify the shipping option has a price for the cart's region and currency (Admin: Shipping > option > prices, or query pricing)
2. Add the missing region/currency price for the option and retry
3. If using a calculated option, check the fulfillment provider's price calculation returns a value for this cart
4. Confirm the cart's region_id is the one you intended before adding the method

Example fix

// before
await addShippingMethodToCartWorkflow(container).run({ input: { cart_id, option_id: soId } })

// after (verify price first)
const { data: [so] } = await query.graph({ entity: 'shipping_option', fields: ['*', 'prices.*'], filters: { id: soId } })
if (!so.prices.some((p) => p.currency_code === cart.currency_code)) {
  throw new Error('Option not priced for cart currency — add price in admin')
}
await addShippingMethodToCartWorkflow(container).run({ input: { cart_id, option_id: soId } })

const { data: [so] } = await query.graph({ entity: 'shipping_option', fields: ['id', 'prices.currency_code', 'prices.region_id'], filters: { id: option_id } })
const priced = so.prices.some((p) => p.region_id === cart.region_id || p.currency_code === cart.currency_code)
if (!priced) throw new Error('Shipping option not priced for this cart context')

const isPricedForCart = (so: ShippingOptionDTO, cart: CartDTO) =>
  so.prices?.some((p) => p.region_id === cart.region_id || p.currency_code === cart.currency_code) ?? false

try {
  await addShippingMethodToCartWorkflow(container).run({ input })
} catch (e) {
  if (e instanceof MedusaError && /do not have a price/.test(e.message)) {
    // exclude option from shipping list, notify merchant to add region price
  }
}

When it happens

Trigger: Calling addShippingMethodToCart with an option id whose prices were deleted, are scoped to another region/currency, or whose price calculation (e.g. flat rate rules or provider calculation) returned nothing for this cart.

Common situations: Shipping option prices created only for one region while the cart belongs to another; price records removed or expired; currency mismatch between cart and price; misconfigured price rules for calculated (provider-based) shipping options.
