ShopifyAPI gem. Update address

[Illia_Kuzma]

Hi.

How can I update customer's default address using ShopifyAPI gem?

I try this:

customer = ShopifyAPI::Customer.find(params[:shopifyCustomerId])
    
    if customer
      customer.addresses.each do |address|
        if address.default
          address.first_name = params[:firstName]
          address.save
       end
   end

and get - ActiveResource::ClientError: Failed. Response code = 406. Response message = Not Acceptable.

Hey @Illia_Kuzma 

You will want to save the customer object versus the address. You can do something like this here: 

    if customer
      customer.addresses.each do |address|
        if address.default == true
          address.first_name = params[:firstName]
          customer.save
       end
   end

Hi @vix ,

thanks for helping. It is really hard to find info on this.

I just tried what you suggested and get:

ActiveResource::BadRequest: Failed. Response code = 400. Response message = Bad Request.

Hey @Illia_Kuzma 

Can you paste your entire code? I can confirm that works while using the Shopify API Console. You may have luck testing there for troubleshooting: https://help.shopify.com/en/api/guides/using-the-api-console
