Not sure if this is the best area to ask this, but I was wondering if I have guest checkout option enabled and many customers utilise it, how can I sign them up as a proper account on my store. I think it would be more of a convenience for the user in case they want to view their order history. I a…

I’m not sure exactly what you’re asking but in my experience orders are tied to email addresses.

Sorry really stuck on this one.

I can hack it by trying to get an AccessToken afterwa…

I went and tested a few of these to make sure I was getting the result. These were tested on API v2022-04: For #1 we both had the same result. #2 returned the customer as null and and a message in customerUserErrors that said: “We have sent an email to test@email.com , please click the link include…
