Problem duplicating specific product

[Kris_Doyle]

Hi All,

I have what I think is a pretty straightforward GraphQL query for duplicating a product:

mutation {
  productDuplicate(productId: "Z2lkOi8vc2hvcGlmeS9Qcm9kdWN0LzQ1NzA1MTEwODE1NzQ", newTitle: "New Product") {
    newProduct {
      id
    }
    userErrors {
      field
      message
    }
  }
}

However,  when I run this query, instead of a new product, I get back an error message with no details about why it failed:

{
  "data": {
    "productDuplicate": {
      "newProduct": null,
      "userErrors": [
        {
          "field": [
            "productId"
          ],
          "message": "Failed to duplicate product"
        }
      ]
    }
  },
  "extensions": {
    "cost": {
      "requestedQueryCost": 10,
      "actualQueryCost": 10,
      "throttleStatus": {
        "maximumAvailable": 1000,
        "currentlyAvailable": 990,
        "restoreRate": 50
      }
    }
  }
}

The weird thing is that it ONLY happens with that product ID. I can duplicate others no problem. When I use the ID above though, I get the error. I can duplicate it just fine using the regular Shopify Admin so I'm really stumped on this one.

Any thoughts from anyone?

Thanks!
Kris

Hey @Kris_Doyle 

It looks like this specific product was throwing a specific validation error: "Errors: Variants compare at price Compare at price needs to be higher than Price.".

Brilliant, thanks @Kevin_A !

Would be good to get that in the error description but otherwise, good stuff.
