Make Raw Request

Make Raw Request allows you to manually construct individual requests to be sent to the API. The component will handle authentication and error reporting. Additionally, when making a request to a paged resource, the component has the ability to fetch all pages and include them in the result set.

For detailed information on Shopify’s API please consult their documentation.

List of Expected Config fields

Fetch All

optional - Some REST endpoints support cursor-based pagination.

When you send a request to a REST endpoint that supports cursor-based pagination, the response body returns the first page of results, and a response header returns links to the next page and the previous page of results (if applicable). This method uses the links to iterate through the response pages until all objects are received. All result pages are included in one result set.

The Shopify REST Admin API use request-based limits.</br> The Apps can make a maximum number of requests per minute. For example: 40 API requests within 60 seconds. Each request counts equally, regardless of how much or how little data is returned.

The Shopify connector regulate the request rate to avoid hitting the rate limit.</br> This Auto Limit function is activated together with the GET and Fetch All configuration. The leaky buckt algorithm is used with the parameters: 2request/second/bucketsize35.

Expected input metadata

HTTP Verb for the request

You can choose from one of the following four HTTP request methods:

  • GET
  • POST
  • PUT
  • DELETE

Request Url

Request Url: /admin/api/{SHOPIFY_API_VERSION}/products/{product_id}.json

  • /{SHOPIFY_API_VERSION} - the shopify version. Not required, default value 2021-04 is set automatically.</br> The version can also be overwritten by allowed values from the official documentation.
  • /products - the object type
  • /{product_id}.json - the placeholder for e.g. 6690777989296

Request parameters can be entered additionally at the end of the Request Url field.

Example Response Object with additional request parameters:</br>

requestUrl: /admin/api/2021-04/products/6690777989296.json?fields=id,title,body_html,product_type,vendor,handle
