Hi @sachiyablavant ,
Shopify doesn't store all information about the product on order entity.

It's quite common practice to simply copy product information while creating order, this is done for safety reasons (in case user delete product order would miss mandatory information if it would be simple reference to product).

Also order line items has tag which indicates if line item product still exist on shopify (it's called product_exists). You also get product_id and variant_id fields on each line item entity, so it's quite easy to get images of the product using images API.

I have created order using order API.now you see above screen short i have got product_title,product_price etc.
but i can't get product image so how to get product_image using order api can you give any example of code...

Seems like you created order with items which doesn't exist on shopify, that's why there are no images under each item.

Images can't be set on order, only products may have images, so when you create an order make sure you create it using items which actually exist on shopify in that case you will see images on order details page. But you can't assign image to order line item directly.

Did you provided variant id when you created order?

[sachiyablavant]

no,i provided product_id

[simon-skrod]

When you create order via API, provide variant_id like in my screenshot
