## **Update your app to account for discount Rollouts**

### **Summary**

Admin GraphQL API version `2026-10` adds a read-only `rollouts` connection across Discount types. Apps that read discounts should use `Discount.rollouts` alongside existing discount fields to account for Rollout-driven schedules and buyer reach.

### **What's changing**

Merchants can include discounts in Rollouts to coordinate launches, test discounts with a share of buyers, or run temporary events alongside other store changes. When a discount is part of a Rollout, its native dates alone don't describe its availability.

### **Update your integration**

* **Request access.** Add `read_rollouts` to your app's scopes. Existing resource scopes still apply to the underlying resource payloads, and existing installations may need merchant reauthorization.
* **Read the discount's Rollouts.** Query `Discount.rollouts` to identify which Rollouts affect the discount.
* **Combine schedules and availability data.** Read Rollout schedule fields alongside the discount's existing `startsAt` and `endsAt` fields. Also read effective allocation, treatment splits, and whether each change activates or expires the discount. Configured traffic allocation alone does not determine effective reach.

### **Account for sales-channel availability**

Discounts activated at 100% effective traffic are available across all sales channels, subject to normal discount eligibility rules. Partial-traffic Rollout activation applies on the Online Store only.

Discounts outside Rollouts behave as before.

### **Earlier API versions**

On Admin GraphQL API versions earlier than `2026-10`, discounts are filtered out if they are active but may not reach all buyers, or if their status differs from the status inferred from native dates.

See the [Discount Rollouts upgrade guide](https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/build/discounts/rollouts) for integration guidance and examples.

To discover Rollouts independently of a discount or receive notifications when they change, see [Rollouts queries and webhooks in the Admin GraphQL API](https://shopify.dev/changelog/read_rollouts).
