Metafield User Error

Retired Boards Appdev Graphql Basics And Troubleshooting

Hi, I was able to create meta fields. But suddenly, my code stopped working. I have checked the result, and there was an internal server error. So I thought that it might be a syntax error on my query, and I copied the question from docs which you can see below. And now I get this error. Is it possible for something to change on the stable API version when it is live? Because I did not change any part of this code, it just stopped working. Also, I could not find any information about "forceCreate" parameter.

My query:

mutation metafieldDefinitionCreate($definition: MetafieldDefinitionInput!) {
              metafieldDefinitionCreate(definition: $definition) {
                createdDefinition {
                  id
                }
                userErrors {
                  field
                  message
                }
              }
            }

Result:

{
    'data': {
        'metafieldDefinitionCreate': {
            'createdDefinition': None,
            'userErrors': [{
                'field': ['definition', 'forceCreate'],
                'message': 'Force create may not be empty'
            }]
        }
    },
    'extensions': {
        'cost': {
            'requestedQueryCost': 10,
            'actualQueryCost': 10,
            'throttleStatus': {
                'maximumAvailable': 1000.0,
                'currentlyAvailable': 990,
                'restoreRate': 50.0
            }
        }
    }
}

Can confirm that this api is not working anymore. I returned back to example code which is explained at https://shopify.dev/apps/metafields/definitions, but no effect.

Some IDs from my instance for verifiying:

Internal error. Looks like something went wrong on our end.
Request ID: 95f94c9e-9093-4f40-bbe1-e1172469103e (include this in support requests)., extensions - code - INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR, requestId - 95f94c9e-9093-4f40-bbe1-e1172469103e

This is happening to me too - or it returns a errors.0.message "Internal error. Looks like something went wrong on our end. \nRequest ID: xxxxx (include this in support requests)

Anyone from Shopify API team know whats going on???
