WooCommerce new order action – get order information

4 comments

1. You can use $order_id as a parameter for your woocommerce_new_order callback and get the order details from the $order_id.

   Example:

   // define the woocommerce_new_order callback 
   function create_invoice_for_wc_order( $order_id ) { 
       // get order details data...
       $order = new WC_Order( $order_id );
       var_dump($order);
   };

2. All answers here are correct but if you need the line items the above wont work since line items can’t be fetched with new WC_Order at that time.

   The hook now has a second $order parameter that will work.

   add_action( 'woocommerce_new_order', 'create_invoice_for_wc_order',  1, 2  );
   function create_invoice_for_wc_order( $order_id, $order ) {
       $items = $order->get_items();
       // etc...
   }

3. woocommerce_new_order includes an $order_id parameter. You can use it in your callback:

   add_action( 'woocommerce_new_order', 'create_invoice_for_wc_order',  1, 1  );
   function create_invoice_for_wc_order( $order_id ) {
       $order = new WC_Order( $order_id );
       $items = $order->get_items();
       // etc...
   }

4. If you want to get only the order details, You can use ‘woocommerce_new_order’ hook and $order_id as parameter

   add_action( 'woocommerce_new_order', 'create_invoice_for_wc_order',  1, 1  );
   function create_invoice_for_wc_order($order_id) {
   $order = new WC_Order( $order_id );
   print_r($order);
   //your code
   }
   

   But if You want to get order items You should use ‘woocommerce_checkout_order_processed’

   add_action( 'woocommerce_checkout_order_processed', 'create_invoice_for_wc_order',  1, 1  );
   function create_invoice_for_wc_order($order_id) {
   $order = new WC_Order( $order_id );
   //order items
   $items = $order->get_items();
   print_r($items);
   }
