We are currently working on retrieving the list of unique vendors for our Shopify store using GraphQL. We understand that the GraphQL query below allows us to retrieve vendors by iterating through the products:
query GetAllProducts($endCursor: String) {
products(first: 100, after: $endCursor) {
edges {
node {
vendor
}
}
pageInfo {
hasNextPage
endCursor
}
}
}
However, this method is not efficient for our needs. For instance, our store might have only a few vendors but thousands or even millions of products, resulting in unnecessary loops and high processing times.
We would like to know if there is a way to construct a GraphQL query that directly retrieves a distinct list of vendors without having to iterate through all the products. Any guidance or alternative methods to achieve this efficiently would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your support and assistance.
