## Exposing the order adjustments connection on a Refund

As of the 2024-10 Admin GraphQL API, you can use the [`Refund.orderAdjustments` connection](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/2024-10/objects/Refund#connection-orderadjustments) to query for the difference between calculated and actual refund amounts. The [`REFUNDS_CREATE` webhook topic](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/webhooks/2024-10?reference=graphql#list-of-topics-refunds_create) will include order adjustments too. As of 2024-10, the webhook payload for `REFUNDS_CREATE` will **not include** the `kind` field. 

Please note that the [`OrderAdjustment.kind`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/unstable/objects/OrderAdjustment#field-kind) field is now **deprecated** in the Admin GraphQL API. It is also deprecated in the legacy [`refund.order_adjustments`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-rest/unstable/resources/refund#resource-object) resource in the Admin REST API.

For this reason, refunded shipping costs will **not** be included in the [`Refund.orderAdjustments` connection](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/2024-10/objects/Refund#connection-orderadjustments). To query for refunded shipping costs, use the [`Refund.refundShippingLines` connection](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/2024-10/objects/Refund#connection-refundshippinglines) instead. This connection has been updated as of **July 18, 2024** to include refunded shipping costs; [more info here](https://shopify.dev/changelog/refunding-orders-with-multiple-shipping-lines-returns-accurate-data). Refunded shipping costs will not be present in the webhook payload for `REFUNDS_CREATE` as of 2024-10 for the same reason.

The [`OrderAdjustment.kind`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/unstable/objects/OrderAdjustment#field-kind) field will be present on the `unstable` API version for 6 months to allow apps to migrate to the 2024-10 API version.
