field on the AbandonedCheckoutLineItem
object, which defaults to the product title, can now also accept a null

filters the first ten prices of a product with an ID of gid://shopify/Product/1
.
Similarly, prices(first: 10, query: "variant_id:1")
filters the first ten prices for a product variant with an ID of gid://shopify/ProductVariant/1

You can now use the financialSummaries
field on the FulfillmentOrderLineItem
object to retrieve the financial summary of a fulfillment order's line items.
With this change, order information that's required to calculate the financial specifics of an order is accessible using the fulfillmentOrder.lineItems
connection and any of the fulfillment_orders
access scopes. The same data is available using fulfillmentOrder.order.lineItems
, but requires the read_orders
