Hello. I am creating a product, it’s metafield, and image using the Admin API. I want to return a URL to the cart with the product selected and a quantity of 1.
This is the response of the POST Product request /admin/api/2021-10/products.json:

It looks like there is one default variant.
Following the example in the documentation here: https://shopify.dev/custom-storefronts/cart#create-a-cart-and-add-a-line-item
I receive this error:
{
“errors”: [
{
“message”: “Variable $cartInput of type CartInput was provided invalid value for lines.0.merchandiseId (Invalid global id 6666256056405)”,
“locations”: [
{
“line”: 1,
“column”: 21
}
],
“extensions”: {
“value”: {
“lines”: [
{
“quantity”: 1,
“merchandiseId”: “6666256056405”
}
],
“attributes”: {
“key”: “cart_attribute”,
“value”: “This is a cart attribute”
}
},
“problems”: [
{
“path”: [
“lines”,
0,
“merchandiseId”
],
“explanation”: “Invalid global id 6666256056405”,
“message”: “Invalid global id 6666256056405”
}
]
}
}
]
}
I have searched high and low for how to find the correct global id, and I have tried many different ways I found on the internet but nothing works.
Can someone please tell me how to get the global ID from the response from
/admin/api/2021-10/products.json shown above? Thanks.
