Shopify integration update

What's new
This week, we have rolled out the latest Shopify integration update v.5.8.2.5 — designed to streamline workflows, improve accuracy, and reduce API overhead for our high-volume e-commerce and 3PL partners.
Key Enhancements for Shopify Users:
- GraphQL Migration for Efficiency: All “GetOrders” functions have been migrated from REST to GraphQL, reducing unnecessary data transfers and improving response speed. Only essential fields are pulled to lower API quota costs, which is especially beneficial for high-volume operations.
- Smarter Order Processing: The update enhances logic for order statuses, item-level weights, and quantity calculations by relying on the FulfillmentOrder data directly. This ensures more accurate shipping estimates and customs documentation.
- Improved Error Handling and Access Scope Logic: Integration instances lacking required Shopify API scopes will now trigger clear error messages, helping admins resolve access issues faster and more transparently.
- Cleaner System Architecture: Deprecated fields and obsolete scripts have been removed, reducing clutter and potential conflicts, especially for long-time customers with legacy configurations.
- Updated Field Mapping: Settings now conform to the latest Shopify GraphQL standards. For example, “MapLineItemProperties” has been updated to “MapLineItemCustomAttributes” to reflect Shopify’s schema changes.
Why it matters:
This is a major backend overhaul that enhances how our system interacts with Shopify, directly benefiting our enterprise and 3PL clients using the integration by improving speed, accuracy, and reliability.
