Introducing the new Customer Data Erasure API

API

Effective November 30, 2023

As of GraphQL Admin API version 2024-01, we are excited to introduce the Customer Data Erasure API. This API allows merchants to handle customer data erasure requests in compliance with GDPR, CCPA, and other data protection regulations. The API includes two new mutations:

  • customerRequestDataErasure enqueues a request to erase customer's data.
  • customerCancelDataErasure cancels a pending erasure of a customer's data.

To learn more about how data erasure is processed and the impact on customer data, please refer to the Shopify Help Center.
