Need help writing python script that will allow me to see the total number of orders made on the current day. Any help is appreciated!
You can use the Shopify API’s Python library (https://github.com/Shopify/shopify_python_api) for getting started. I’d suggest the GraphQL API as opposed to the REST API. Once you start digging in then you can issue a GraphQL API query request, parse the response, update the $cursor variable if there are more pages to retrieve, and collect the data you need, etc. What’s nice is that there is an interactive Shopify GraphQL App that you can install in a Shopify store in order to test out things interactively.
Here’s a screen shot of a GraphQL API query request that would retrieve basic info about orders. Hope this helps!
