How do you create an article

[7ynk3r]

I'm trying to create an article using APIs (any will do) in NodeJS. Can you indicate how to achieve this? The docs don't help much and chatgpt, perplexity nor gemini can help. I'd really appreciate an E2E example. I already have API keys for storefront & admin with all the scopes.

For context,

I tried using cURL

curl -X GET "https://your-development-store.myshopify.com/admin/api/2024-01/articles/authors.json" \
-H "X-Shopify-Access-Token: {access_token}"

without success with all token

{"errors":"[API] Invalid API key or access token (unrecognized login or wrong password)"}%                                                                                                  

I tried gql

curl -X POST \
  https://{shop}.myshopify.com/admin/api/2024-04/graphql.json \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'X-Shopify-Access-Token: {access_token}' \
  -d '{
    "query": "query {
      products(first: 5) {
        edges {
          node {
            id
            handle
          }
        }
        pageInfo {
          hasNextPage
        }
      }
    }"
  }'

and got

Bad request

If someone else ends up here and there's no answer to my original post, the following works

Hi there 👋

In the future questions about how to make API calls in general are best suited for the Shopify Community forums.

For this specific example can you confirm that you are replacing https://your-development-store.myshopify.com with the URL of your store and {access_token} with the access token of your app?

If you want to explore the Shopify Admin and Storefront APIs you may also want to checkout the Graphiql explorer.
