Curl example: "curl -X POST \\\nhttps://your-development-store.myshopify.com/admin/api/2024-10/graphql.json \\\n-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \\\n-H 'X-Shopify-Access-Token: {access_token}' \\\n-d '{\n\"query\": \"query { locations(first: 5) { edges { node { id name address { formatted } } } } }\"\n}'\n"
Node example: "const client = new shopify.clients.Graphql({session});\nconst data = await client.query({\n data: `query {\n locations(first: 5) {\n edges {\n node {\n id\n name\n address {\n formatted\n }\n }\n }\n }\n }`,\n});\n"
Ruby example: "session = ShopifyAPI::Auth::Session.new(\n shop: \"your-development-store.myshopify.com\",\n access_token: access_token\n)\nclient = ShopifyAPI::Clients::Graphql::Admin.new(\n session: session\n)\n\nquery = <<~QUERY\n query {\n locations(first: 5) {\n edges {\n node {\n id\n name\n address {\n formatted\n }\n }\n }\n }\n }\nQUERY\n\nresponse = client.query(query: query)\n"
Remix example: "const { admin } = await authenticate.admin(request);\n\nconst response = await admin.graphql(\n `#graphql\n query {\n locations(first: 5) {\n edges {\n node {\n id\n name\n address {\n formatted\n }\n }\n }\n }\n }`,\n);\n\nconst data = await response.json();\n"
Graphql query: "query {\n locations(first: 5) {\n edges {\n node {\n id\n name\n address {\n formatted\n }\n }\n }\n }\n}"
