Hi @mascaritas, I'm guessing you've already configured the Shopify GraphQL resource? In the meantime I am investigating this error but any additional context helps!

Hello Mike

AppGen really excels at a lot of tasks, such as creating patinated, queries or batch processing of multiple table lines with a API query or another functionality

However, it still seems to be pretty much all allergic to the Shopify graphQL API (which I suppose is to one of the most used)

Is it possible that introspection doesn’t work because I observed that earlier when just manually working with the graphQL of Shopify

Compared to another graph QL I have used where I could have the scheme are below and browse it right away this was not shown by the Shopify API

Could this be the road block?

I've looked into this and a push was made very recently to fix this issue. Specifically the fix was around optimizing token usage when Assist is using GraphQL, and had to do with how it was implementing introspection (so your theory seems correct). I tested Assist with an example Shopify GraphQL resource just now and it seems to be able to create queries!

Let me know if you're still having this issue!

Hello Mike! You are absolutely right. Now it works as a charm, and it's incredible what we can do with AppAssist.

My natural question that arises is: Is it somehow possible to build an app with App Assist and then generate a workflow from that? That's my usual workflow.

  1. First, I like to have a manual operation to see what works and what doesn't. This can now be built with Assist.

  2. Once I dominate the subject, I create the workflow from it.
