# Get Locations

GET https://api.shipbob.com/2026-01/location

Retrieves physical locations across ShipBob's fulfillment network. An active location (`is_active=true`) is operational for fulfillment processes, including receiving inventory and processing returns. Access to locations varies: some are available to all merchants by default, while others require special approval. Use the `access_granted` parameter to determine if a location is available to the authenticated user, and `receiving_enabled` to confirm if the location accepts inventory.
