Breaking change to metafieldDefinitionUpdate mutation: access input type changed

API

Action required

Note: This change does not affect many apps and you likely aren't affected unless you are defining a variable of type MetafieldAccessInput for the access property in your MetafieldDefinitionUpdate mutation.

As of GraphQL Admin API version 2023-10, we are changing the input field type of MetafieldDefinitionUpdateInput.access from MetafieldAccessInput to MetafieldAccessUpdateInput. This change is part of a broader API change to introduce support for explicit access grants (see Introducing explicit access grants for app-owned metafields for details), which will have a different input for updating the grants on existing definitions than for specifying grants on new definitions.
