  description: The Grubhub Deliveries API enables partners to manage delivery logistics and interact with Grubhub's nationwide courier network. It provides delivery status tracking through key states including driver assignment, pickup ready, and out for delivery. Partners can leverage Grubhub Connect, a full-service delivery solution for delivery aggregators, marketplaces, and enterprise merchants to fulfill orders using Grubhub drivers. The API also supports driver communication through proxy phone numbers.
