NET-30 terms in GraphQL draftOrderCreate

Hi all,

I am trying to create a draft order that is due in 30 days.

With the following request/data:

mutation CreateOrder($input: DraftOrderInput!)  {
  draftOrderCreate(input: $input) {
    draftOrder {
      id
    }
    userErrors {
      field
      message
    }
  }
}

-------------------------------
{
      input: {
        customerId,
        lineItems: [ { variantId, quantity: 1 } ],
        paymentTerms: {
          paymentSchedules: {
            dueAt: "2022-04-23T00:00:00Z"
          }
        }
      }
    }

I get the following error:

{“draftOrderCreate”:{“draftOrder”:null,“userErrors”:[{“field”:null,“message”:“Payment terms template id can not be empty.”}]}}

Anyone have an idea how to either create these templates or else otherwise create a net-30 order using the API?

Thanks,

Brendan

Solved this after hours of fruitless Googling and forum/Slack search. Apparently there are a bunch of pre-made payment term templates that you can view using the following query:

query {
  paymentTermsTemplates {
    id
    dueInDays
  }
}

This will spit out a bunch of options that hopefully fit your use case.

We really shouldn’t have to work this hard. Documentation CAN be empowering, both contextual and thorough. Stripe’s docs are proof that this is possible - Shopify’s is not.
