Receiving different response from generateStagedUploads as in official documentation

[Matthias7]

Hi all,

I am trying to upload some files from our server to our Shopify store using the GraphQL api.

I am following this guide from the official documentation: https://shopify.dev/api/examples/product-media

aswell as this tutorial: https://dev.to/fatihsamur/bulk-product-upload-on-shopify-using-graphql-admin-api-with-php-33ki

The query seems to be executing and I am getting this response back:

{
   "data":{
      "stagedUploadsCreate":{
         "stagedTargets":[
            {
               "url":"https:\/\/shopify.s3.amazonaws.com\/tmp\/984219684\/products\/33057b4b-0c1c-47ee-89e9-0fbd718d2ad6\/68-07-60459-196_ls1.jpg?x-amz-acl=private&X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Credential=AKIAJYM555KVYEWGJDKQ%2F20220913%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20220913T085635Z&X-Amz-Expires=900&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&X-Amz-Signature=3b8592fd45e9214d6bff4a4bff7b098b3ac9959f6cc9057b0c5f3638dbbb9ed7",
               "resourceUrl":"https:\/\/shopify.s3.amazonaws.com\/tmp\/984219684\/products\/33057b4b-0c1c-47ee-89e9-0fbd718d2ad6\/68-07-60459-196_ls1.jpg",
               "parameters":[
                  {
                     "name":"content_type",
                     "value":"image\/jpg"
                  },
                  {
                     "name":"acl",
                     "value":"private"
                  }
               ]
            }
         ],
         "userErrors":[
            
         ]
      }
   },
   "extensions":{
      "cost":{
         "requestedQueryCost":11,
         "actualQueryCost":11,
         "throttleStatus":{
            "maximumAvailable":2000,
            "currentlyAvailable":1989,
            "restoreRate":100
         }
      }
   }
}

I am now at the curl stage of the official shopify documentation.

I noticed that most of the curl parameters that I required were actually in the “url” part of my response.

So after untangling them I also noticed that I am missing several parameters and seem to have several new ones, for example the “AWSAccessKeyId” is not present but I have instead a “X-Amz-SignedHeaders” parameter, those are just a few examples.

I am not even sure why I am not receiving the response the same way as in this tutorial: https://dev.to/fatihsamur/bulk-product-upload-on-shopify-using-graphql-admin-api-with-php-33ki (because it seems strange that I have to untangle the parameters from the url).

I am quite lost on how to proceed with the curl multiform part and would appreciate any help.

I am new to GraphQL so please forgive me as I am still learning

Thanks in advance,

Matthias

So im still working on this however, I managed to get the correct response.

I was silly and not following the correct Curl format found here: https://shopify.dev/api/admin-graphql/2022-07/mutations/stageduploadscreate

'{
"query": "mutation stagedUploadsCreate($input: [StagedUploadInput!]!) { stagedUploadsCreate(input: $input) { stagedTargets { url, resourceUrl parameters { name value } } } }",
 "variables": {
    "input": [
      ' . $inputVARIABLE . '
    ]
  }
}'

I hope this helped someone :), the programming language is php.

Cheers,

Matthias

So…I am still struggling with the CURL part, and would appreciate any help.

I am constructing my CURL like so in postman based off of the POST request in https://shopify.dev/api/examples/product-media#upload-the-asset,

I am trying to run it through Postman and the curl functions in PHP both to no avail.

I am trying to send with x-amz-signatures too however, that seems to make no difference, and I still end with the same conflict of acl, policy error.

If anyone has experienced a similar hold-up I would appreciat ethem sharing their experience/how they managed to resolve their problem

Cheers,

Matthias
