🔎 Improvement: Shopify search

Performance: We are using GraphQL to search more efficiently with a single API call. This approach retrieves only the fields we are searching for, making the experience faster.

Search capabilities: For orders, you can search by order name, order ID, and email. For customers, you can search by email, customer ID, and phone.

🛠️ Improvement: Google apps

Google apps (Google Drive and Google Sheets specifically) reclassified the requested permissions to be considered "Restrictive" permissions. This update should not impact any workflow, except for the typeahead of Google Spreadsheet ID. It now uses an iframe, allowing you to select the Google Sheet you are targeting.

🛒 Improvement: Shopify Plus

We added the ability to create B2B orders/draft orders through our Shopify Plus app. You can also trigger workflows whenever a B2B order/draft order is created or updated. Creating B2B orders requires company information. As a refresher, Shopify Plus app can only be used by stores on a Shopify Plus plan.

🎵 For your ears: Summer Slow Jams

Light the grills and crack a beer! Enjoy our Spotify playlist for July featuring summertime slow jams.
