## Description

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. [See the documentation](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/bulkoperationrunmutation)

## Props

| Prop | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `mutation` | `string` | Yes | 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 } } } |
| `filePath` | `string` | Yes | 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. |
| `clientIdentifier` | `string` | No | An optional identifier which may be used for querying |
| `syncDir` | `dir` | No | SyncDir |

## Run it

**MCP**

```ts
import { Client } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/index.js"
import { StreamableHTTPClientTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/streamableHttp.js"
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 accessToken = await pd.rawAccessToken

const transport = new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(
  new URL("https://remote.mcp.pipedream.net/v3"),
  {
    requestInit: {
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${accessToken}`,
        "x-pd-project-id": process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
        "x-pd-environment": "production",
        "x-pd-external-user-id": "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
        "x-pd-app-slug": "shopify",
      },
    },
  },
)

const mcp = new Client({ name: "my-agent", version: "1.0.0" })
await mcp.connect(transport)

const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()

// listTools() hands your model this tool's input schema, so it can
// fill the arguments itself:
const result = await mcp.callTool({
  name: "shopify-bulk-import",
  arguments: {
    mutation: "Mutation",
    filePath: "File Path or URL",
  },
})
```

**TypeScript**

  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" },
