Shopify ACTION
Run Bulk Mutation
Runs a bulk mutation (Shopify's
bulkOperationRunMutation) by uploading a JSONL file of per-line mutation variables, so a mutation (e.g. product/variant/metafield create or update) runs once per line across thousands of records in a single Admin GraphQL bulk operation instead of one API call per record.

IMPLEMENTATION
Call this tool
Connect a user's Shopify account once, then configure and run Run Bulk Mutation from your backend or agent.
import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"
const pd = new PipedreamClient({
projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
projectEnvironment: "production",
})
const result = await pd.actions.run({
id: "shopify-bulk-import",
externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
configuredProps: {
shopify: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
mutation: "Mutation",
filePath: "File Path or URL",
},
})

Inputs
Pipedream supplies the connected account. Your application provides the operation-specific values below. Dynamic inputs are resolved against that user's account.
| Property | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
mutation Mutation | string | The mutation to be executed in bulk. See the documentation for a list of supported mutations. Example: mutation call($input: ProductInput!) { productCreate(input: $input) { product { id title } } } Required |
filePath File Path or URL | string | The JSONL file containing the variables for the mutation — provide a file URL (e.g. https://example.com/mutation-variables.jsonl) or a path to a file in the /tmp directory (e.g. /tmp/mutation-variables.jsonl). Each line in the JSONL file represents one input unit. The mutation runs once on each line of the input file. See the documentation for more information. Required |
clientIdentifier Client Identifier | string | An optional identifier which may be used for querying Optional |
syncDir SyncDir | dir | Optional |
