App reviews, troubleshooting, and recommendations
Hello all,
We would like to develop an API that filters out all orders containing products with a certain tag and then sends them to the product manufacturer in a format specified by the manufacturer.
We have the following considerations where we don't know if there are easier solutions.
1. consideration
We have a Node.js application that periodically/regularly accesses the admin API and fetches the orders via a GraphQL query.
2nd consideration
We would like to fetch all orders from a certain date which is not possible due to the rate limits. Therefore we might want to look into bulk operations, the question is if there might be other approaches to solve the problem efficiently. With webhooks there might be a risk of not being guaranteed to trigger. https://shopify.dev/apps/webhooks
We would appreciate your suggestions and input.
Thanks a lot
Hi Office-Vayne,
If rate limiting is causing problems and you require fast read access to your shop data, then might I suggest installing the API Blazor app in your Shopify store. It has a 14 day free trial.
This app provides an almost identical API to the Shopify REST API (for reading data), but it is faster (as it operates from cached data) and does not impose rate limiting.
Hope that is of some help.
Regards,
Wayne
