DraftOrderLineItem.grams field removed in 2026-07
Shopify developer change
MerchantDiff detected this entry in Shopify's official developer changelog on April 13, 2026.
This Shopify update is categorized as Action Required, API, Breaking API Change, 2026-07.
What changed
We are removing the grams field from the DraftOrderLineItem object in the Admin GraphQL API, starting with version 2026-07. This field was deprecated over 8 years ago. After the 2026-04 API version becomes unsupported, any queries referencing DraftOrderLineItem.grams will return an error.
Who is affected
Apps using the affected Shopify GraphQL API surface should review this change.
What action may be needed
Replace any usage of grams with the weight field on DraftOrderLineItem. The weight field returns both a value and a unit, giving you more flexibility than the old grams integer.
