## Mutations

* [bulk​Operation​Run​Query](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/2025-01/mutations/bulkOperationRunQuery)

  mutation

  Creates and runs a [bulk operation](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/objects/BulkOperation) to fetch data asynchronously. The operation processes your GraphQL query in the background and returns results in a [JSONL](http://jsonlines.org/) file when complete.

  Apps can run one bulk query operation and one bulk mutation operation at a time per shop. The query must include at least one connection field and supports up to five connections with a maximum nesting depth of two levels.

  ***

  Note

  Results remain available for seven days after completion.
