Create Customer generates incorrect customer.account_activation_url

[lobbyof]

Hi,

Since about July 5th, our customers have been unable to click the standard Activate Your Account button in the Welcome Email.

The liquid variable in the template is the default: {{ customer.account_activation_url }}

However, on clicking it, the customer is brought to the Reset Password page, not the Activate Account page.

On investigation, I replaced the call:

$shopify->Customer->post($new_customer);

with a direct PHP cURL call to the endpoint: /admin/api/2021-04/customers.json

And this worked. Note, I also had to wrap my existing $new_customer array in: $customer = array( "customer" => $new_customer ); before json_encoding it for it to work with the newer API version.

What API version does the SDK use?

@lobbyof The lib is using version 2021-01 by default, you can update it using the config array

$config = array(
    'ShopUrl' => 'yourshop.myshopify.com',
    'ApiKey' => '***YOUR-PRIVATE-API-KEY***',
    'Password' => '***YOUR-PRIVATE-API-PASSWORD***',
    'ApiVersion' => '2021-04'
);
