I'm creating products, media, translations, metafields, etc. from clients ERP system in Shopify through Graphql. Infrequently, I get response back "Internal error. Looks like something went wrong on our end.". These tend to include Request IDs. Can I somehow get more information about these errors? Partner support told me to ask on forums.

These are some of the request IDs for requests which failed while creating/updating 500 products with 3 variants each, including translations across product/options/variants

  1. Registering translations for product variant option values

Interestingly, not all requests for translating variant option values fail - I'm curious if there is something common between requests which fail.

I have also seen some of these errors while creating products, metafields, etc. Are these considered transient errors in general, meaning we should try to send the request again?
