Shopify Adds New Bulk Operations Queries to Admin API in 2026

What Changed

Shopify has introduced two new GraphQL queries to streamline bulk operations management in the Admin API. The bulkOperations query provides a paginated, filterable connection for retrieving all your bulk operations, while the bulkOperation query allows you to fetch details on a specific operation by ID. These additions make it easier for developers to track, monitor, and manage bulk data operations across their Shopify applications.

Why This Matters

Previously, developers had limited visibility into bulk operation status and history without building custom workarounds. These new queries eliminate friction by offering native, first-class support for bulk operation retrieval directly through the Admin API. This is especially valuable for apps handling large-scale data imports, exports, or transformations, as you can now programmatically monitor operation progress, filter by status, and integrate bulk operation data into your workflows without manual intervention.
