[Feature Request] Add customer type to the Resource Picker API

App Bridge

Hi team :waving_hand:

I need to create a UI that allows merchants to find and select a single customer from their store, it appears there is no existing API / helper component for this? I was surprised to see it not present in the Resource Picker API type options.

I thought this would be a fairly common use case, can we get this added to the resource picker, or failing that extend the Picker API to allow us to implement a custom search or pagination so I can easily implement this myself? As it currently stands it looks like I have to build the lot from scratch.

Let me know if there is something and I’ve just missed it here.

This is a current limitation of the Resource Picker API, which is currently scoped to resource types that don’t require checking an app’s approved access to protected customer data.

I’ll submit a feature request internally for customer support in the Resource Picker API or, if that isn’t feasible, improvements to the Picker API that would make a custom implementation easier. We can’t confirm whether or when a feature request will be implemented, so I recommend watching the developer changelog for updates.

No worries thanks @Paige-Shopify
