title: QueryRoot - Storefront API
description: >
  The entry point for all Storefront API queries. Provides access to shop
  resources including products, collections, carts, and customer data, as well
  as content like articles and pages. This query acts as the public, top-level
  type from which all queries must start.


  Use individual queries like
  [`product`](/docs/api/storefront/unstable/queries/product) or
  [`collection`](/docs/api/storefront/unstable/queries/collection) to fetch
  specific resources by ID or handle. Use plural queries like
  [`products`](/docs/api/storefront/unstable/queries/products) or
  [`collections`](/docs/api/storefront/unstable/queries/collections) to retrieve
  paginated lists with optional filtering and sorting. The
  [`search`](/docs/api/storefront/unstable/queries/search) and
  [`predictiveSearch`](/docs/api/storefront/unstable/queries/predictiveSearch)
  queries enable storefront search functionality.
