A space to discuss GraphQL queries, mutations, troubleshooting, throttling, and best practices.
I believe the API docs are out of date for updating on collection creation and creating on collection update.
On collectionCreate under `id` it states:
Specifies the collection to update or create a new collection if absent.
With this input:
input: { title: 'Special Snares', descriptionHtml: 'Test', id: 'gid://shopify/Collection/299687116949' }
I receive this response:
"userErrors":[{"field":["id"],"message":"id cannot be specified on collection creation","__typename":"UserError"}]
And on the other end, with `collectionUpdate`, it states:
Specifies the collection to update or create a new collection if absent.
And I receive this response with an `id` attached:
id must be specified on collectionUpdate
Hi @brydom,
Thanks for your post and for sharing your findings!
I tested this on my end as well with the same results and I have sent this to our developer documents team to clarify / enhance.
Thanks again for taking the time to report it.
