How can I fetch companyLocationId using company ID in GraphQL?

Shopify Apps
,

Topic summary

Goal: fetch companyLocationId by company ID and also obtain CompanyContactId and CompanyContactRoleId to assign ordering permission during customer creation via GraphQL.

Proposed approach: a responder suggested a generic GraphQL pattern querying company(id) to return companyLocationId and nested companyContact { companyContactId, companyContactRoleId }, noting the query must match the actual schema.

Latest update: the requester tried a companies(first:10) query returning name, id, contactRoles, locations, and contacts. The query succeeds without the contacts field, but fails to retrieve contactId when including contacts { nodes { name id } }.

Key points:

  • The provided example is schema-agnostic and may not reflect the Shopify schema used.
  • The blocker is specifically fetching contacts/contactId; other fields (locations, contactRoles) return as expected.

Status: unresolved. Further schema-specific guidance is needed (e.g., correct field/connection names and nesting for contacts) or clarification on whether contacts are accessible via the chosen endpoint.

Terms: companyLocationId, CompanyContactId, CompanyContactRoleId are identifiers for a company’s location, contact, and contact role, respectively.

I am trying to write a query to fetch the companyLocationId based on the company ID.

I need the CompanyContactId, CompanyContactRoleId, and CompanyLocationId to add the ordering permission to the customer while creating them through GraphQL.

Please advise if anyone has any thoughts on this.

Certainly! To fetch the CompanyLocationId based on the CompanyId in GraphQL, you’d need to construct a query. Assuming you have a schema similar to this:

query {
company(id: "your_company_id") {
companyLocationId
companyContact {
companyContactId
companyContactRoleId
}
}
}

Replace "your_company_id" with the actual ID you’re querying for. This assumes a structure where a company has a location, and a contact associated with it.

Make sure to adapt the query based on your specific GraphQL schema. If you encounter any issues or have a different schema, feel free to provide more details for a more accurate response.

Hi Sam, Thanks for your input.

I tried writing the below query and it looks like I’m unable to get the contactId. But without the contacts in the query, I get the response.

Could you please let me know what am I missing?

Thanks.

{
companies(first: 10){
nodes{
name

id

contactRoles(first: 5){
nodes{
name

id
}
}

locations(first: 5){
nodes{
name

id
}
}

contacts(first: 5){
nodes{
name

id
}
}
}
}
}
