# New mutations marketingActivityCreateExternal and marketingActivityUpdateExternal are available

As of GraphQL Admin API version **2022-10**, you can now use *marketingActivityCreateExternal* and *marketingActivityUpdateExternal* mutations to create and manage marketing activities, without the need to implement a marketing activity app extension.

These endpoints will allow our app partners to more easily link their marketing efforts, and accompanying tracking information to Shopify so our merchants can have a more complete picture of their marketing performance.
