How to use Zones to group specific regions within a country?

Hi everyone, 

I’m pretty new with CommerceTools and learning. 

I did a Learning Check on this learning module: https://docs.commercetools.com/learning-model-your-business-structure/model-your-business/learning-check

 

I’d like to ask about this question:

The correct answer is 2nd option: by using Zone to group specific regions.

But when I tried to create a Zone, there is no way to specify region for it - only able to select country, do I miss anything here? 

 

It would be great if you can help. Thanks.

​@Hoang , you are correct, this cannot be done using the Merchant Center. Creating Zones for regions/states within a Country is currently only supported via the HTTP API. As you can see in the documentation when submitting a ZoneDraft, you can specify a list of locations which can optionally include states. 
I hope this helps to clear things up 😊

Feel free to reach out if you have any further questions or doubts.
