Different error codes when retrieving store data using the GraphQL API and the REST API

GraphQL Admin API Troubleshooting
1

Hi!

We’re migrating to the GraphQL API and have noticed that the GraphQL endpoint for retrieving store data returns a different error code than the REST API endpoint.

Specifically, while the REST API returns a 404 or 403 error for a store, GraphQL instead returns a 401 error code for the same store.

Could someone from Shopify take a look?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

indeed, we have found some closed stores for which the REST API returns a 404 error code (expected) and the GraphQL API returns a 401 error code. This way, it is not possible to know if the store keeps closed or not.

Is this te expected behavior? Or is it a bug?

Please take a look :slight_smile:

Hey folks,

Will connect with the relevant team to confirm if we need to make a change on our side.

Hey folks - so I’ve connected with the internal product team on this and they’ve confirmed the error code for GraphQL is correct and should be 401.
