Hi, is there a storefront API yet to cancel/edit the order, also for listing all orders of a customer?
Topic summary
Core Issue:
Orders created via Shopfront API cannot be modified or cancelled through the API itself, requiring use of Admin API instead.
Key Developments:
- Initial inquiry (Mayank_Kumar) asked about editing/cancelling orders created with Storefront API Android SDK
- Shopify representative (vix) confirmed orders created by apps/Storefront API cannot be edited at that time
- Feature was noted as something planned for future development
Business Impact:
- One user reported client upset due to lack of documentation on this limitation
- Store using Storefront API for checkouts found the restriction “completely unacceptable”
Current Status:
- Thread later updated indicating order editing became available for orders created 100% through Storefront API
- However, recent follow-ups (4 years later) suggest ongoing confusion about:
- Cancelling/editing orders via Storefront API
- Listing all customer orders
- Whether full functionality is now available
Resolution: Partially resolved but remains unclear whether complete edit/cancel capabilities exist in current Storefront API.
