Query customer orders and profile using the Shopify Customer Account API GraphQL endpoint

In-depth guide

Steps

1. After obtaining a Customer Account API access_token via OAuth, determine the correct Customer Account API GraphQL endpoint — it is at a Shopify-hosted URL specific to your store; check current docs for the exact host pattern
2. Send a POST request to the GraphQL endpoint with Content-Type: application/json, Authorization: Bearer <access_token>, and a body with a query field containing your GraphQL query
3. Query the customer root field for profile data: customer { firstName lastName emailAddress { emailAddress } defaultAddress { address1 city country } }
4. Query customer orders with pagination: customer { orders(first: 10, after: $cursor) { nodes { id name processedAt totalPrice { amount currencyCode } lineItems(first: 5) { nodes { title quantity } } } pageInfo { hasNextPage endCursor } } }
5. Handle the pageInfo.hasNextPage and endCursor for cursor-based pagination when a customer has many orders; iterate until hasNextPage is false
6. For address management use the customerAddressCreate, customerAddressUpdate, and customerAddressDelete mutations on the same endpoint
