## Mutations with this payload

* [customer​Activate](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/storefront/2025-04/mutations/customerActivate)

  mutation

  Activates a customer account using an activation token received from the [`customerCreate`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/storefront/2025-04/mutations/customerCreate) mutation. The customer sets their password during activation and receives a [`CustomerAccessToken`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/storefront/2025-04/objects/CustomerAccessToken) for authenticated access.

  For a simpler approach that doesn't require parsing the activation URL, use [`customerActivateByUrl`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/storefront/2025-04/mutations/customerActivateByUrl) instead.

  ***

  **Caution:** This mutation handles customer credentials. Always use HTTPS and never log or expose the password or access token.

  ***

  * id

    [ID!](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/storefront/2025-04/scalars/ID)

    required

    ### Arguments

    Specifies the customer to activate.

  * input

    [Customer​Activate​Input!](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/storefront/2025-04/input-objects/CustomerActivateInput)
