SMS Consent in Storefront API

SMS Consent in Storefront API

Hi,

 

Just wondering when we can expect SMS consent properties to be enabled in the Storefront API?

Currently we are subscribing users with the Admin GraphQL API, either creating new accounts by email and/or phone number, or updating the existing account if the user is logged in.

 

Unfortunately when it comes to account creation, we have to use the Storefront API to create the account because we cannot set a password with the Admin API. This means we can't collect SMS consent when our customers create accounts on our site.

 

Seems to be a real gap Shopify needs to fill sooner rather than later.

Bump. Still the case in 2023/02 even on the release candidate for the next api version. I only use the Storefront API and really don't want to have to add another admin proxy endpoint.
