Shopify GraphQL Admin API

A comprehensive skill for interacting with Shopify's GraphQL Admin API. This skill enables Claude to query and manage all aspects of Shopify store data.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when the user asks about:

• Products (list, search, create, update, delete)
• Orders (view, cancel, fulfill)
• Customers (list, create, update)
• Inventory (check levels, adjust quantities)
• Discounts (create codes, manage promotions)
• Any other Shopify store operations

Critical Operations Requiring Permission

IMPORTANT: Before executing any of the following operations, you MUST ask for explicit user permission:

• Refunds: Create refunds (permanent financial transactions)
• Order Cancellations: Cancel orders (may trigger refunds)
• Gift Card Deactivation: Permanently disable gift cards
• Inventory Adjustments: Modify stock levels
• Product Deletions: Permanently remove products
• Discount Activations: Change pricing for customers

Always show what will be changed and wait for user confirmation.

How to Use

1. Use the shopify_graphql tool to execute queries
2. Check for errors (GraphQL issues) and userErrors (validation issues)
3. Use pagination with first/after for large result sets
4. Format all IDs as: gid://shopify/Resource/123

Quick Examples

List Recent Orders

query {
  orders(first: 10, sortKey: CREATED_AT, reverse: true) {
    nodes {
      id
      name
      totalPriceSet {
        shopMoney { amount currencyCode }
      }
      customer { displayName }
    }
  }
}

Search Products

query {
  products(first: 10, query: "title:*shirt* AND status:ACTIVE") {
    nodes {
      id
      title
      status
    }
  }
}

Check Inventory

query GetInventory($id: ID!) {
  inventoryItem(id: $id) {
    id
    inventoryLevels(first: 5) {
      nodes {
        quantities(names: ["available"]) {
          name
          quantity
        }
        location { name }
      }
    }
  }
}

Error Handling

Always check responses:

• errors array = GraphQL syntax issues
• userErrors in mutations = validation problems

Best Practices

1. Request only needed fields to optimize response size
2. Use pagination for lists that may grow
3. Check userErrors in all mutation responses
4. Ask permission before dangerous operations
5. Format results clearly for the user
6. Use bulk operations for large data exports/imports
7. Handle rate limits with exponential backoff
