Re: Cart attribute value from the "input.graphql" returns NULL in a "cart checkout va

Solved

Cart attribute value from the "input.graphql" returns NULL in a "cart checkout validation" function.

Hi, I'm having problem retrieving cart attribute value from the "input.graphql" in a "cart checkout validation" function.

 

My site is using the new checkout system and I developed a custom extension-only app for customizing it.

 

There are several extensions in the app. One of the extension is a "cart checkout validation" function.I find that it the cart attributes in the input.graphql are all returning null value. It was working fine (has value) until yesterday.

 and I'm not sure why:

 

Some observations:

1. I am very sure I did not touch the code and the same piece of code was returning values before.
2. After checkout, I checked that the order indeed has all of the cart attributes in the order details in admin panel.

3. Other extension types (e.g. "delivery_customization", "ui_extension") in the same app are using the same cart attributes just fine.
4. I created another "cart checkout validation", it cannot get the cart attributes also.

5. I tried disabling/enabling the checkout rule and even reinstalled the whole app, but it does not help.

 

It seems to me that only the cart attributes in the "cart checkout validation" input are not returning value.

 

The extension is on api_version = "2023-07".

My input.graphql:

 

query Input {
  localization {
    language {
      isoCode
    }
  }
  buyerJourney {
    step
  }
  cart {
    attrAddressType: attribute(key: "address_type") {
      value
    }
    attrAddressPrefill: attribute(key: "address_prefill") {
      value
    }
    deliveryGroups {
      deliveryAddress {
        address1
        city
        provinceCode
        countryCode
        zip
      }
    }
  }
}

In the function:

 

 

 

const addressType = input.cart.attrAddressType?.value; // Returns NULL
const addressPrefill = input.cart.addressPrefill?.value; // Returns NULL

Hi @Liam 

Any updates?

Can you confirm the issue lies on Shopify's end or not?

Sorry for urging, but this function is crucial in my site's checkout logic.

This problem just happened 7-8 days ago. But in this morning, I rechecked and it came back, and now it's working. I don't know why, maybe Shopify just updated something?

Hello Liam,

 

i've the same issue in my store which is based on Checkout and Customer Accounts Extensibility  and we want to develop a delivery customisation function based on the cart attribute.

 

 

 

 

query RunInput {
  cart {
    handles: attribute(key: "hideHanldes"){
      value
    }
  }
}

 

 

 

we are passing the the handle in the cart attribute with key hideHandles .

the output of the function is

 

 

 

{
  "cart": {
    "handles": {
      "value": "list of the hideble handles"
    }
  }
}

 

 

 

 

but when we want to get the details of the handles value is returns null

 

const hideHandles = input.cart.handles?.value; || returns null

Hi @Liam,

 

We are still experiencing the same issue with the Cart checkout validation API despite using the latest API version, 2024-01.

Could you please help us investigate why this is happening?
