Hello,

We have been trying to edit an existing order with the Admin API . But api is working for some stores, but not for some stores.

Using orderEditBegin is giving me a null for calculatedOrder . Reference: https://help.shopify.com/en/api/guides/editing-orders#begin-order-editing

Request :

curl --location --request POST 'https://xxxxxxxxx.myshopify.com/admin/api/2022-10/graphql.json' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/graphql' \
--header 'X-Shopify-Access-Token: shpca_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' \
--data-raw 'mutation beginEdit {
  orderEditBegin(id: "gid://shopify/Order/5095223525614") {
    calculatedOrder {
      id
      fulfilledLineItems: lineItems(first: 25, query: "editable:false") {
        edges {
          node {
            id
            title
            quantity
            hasStagedLineItemDiscount
            calculatedDiscountAllocations {
              discountApplication {
                id
              }
            }
          }
        }
      }
      unfulfilledLineItems: lineItems(first: 25, query: "editable:true") {
        edges {
          node {
            id
            title
            quantity
            variant {
              id
            }
            hasStagedLineItemDiscount
            calculatedDiscountAllocations {
              discountApplication {
                id
              }
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }

Hi @Ankit16 :waving_hand:

To start, I’d recommend using the userErrors object to get more details on the reason the calculated order could not be created.

Generally, apps can edit orders that a Shopify channel creates (POS, Online Store, or drafts), or orders that this same app creates through the GraphQL Admin API - that is, the app making the edit needs to have created order. Another requirement to check would be that the order must be placed in your store currency.

mutation ($id: ID!) {
    orderEditBegin(id: $id){
        calculatedOrder{
            id
        }
        userErrors {
        }
    }
}

Hope that helps!
