            "accountID": 'Account_ID_45466_this_is_as_per_toml'

The accountId input in the webPixelCreate mutation refers to the ID of the associated MarketingActivity. This ID is a unique identifier that Shopify assigns to the MarketingActivity when it is created.

 

To get the accountId, you need to create a marketing activity for your app first. You can do this by using the marketingActivityCreate  mutation. Once you've created a marketing activity, you'll be able to see the ID in the response.  You can see an example of this in our developer docs here

 

Hope this helps!
