Shopify GraphQL cursor loop

Many Shopify GraphQL queries have the ability to return a cursor which you can loop over, however the N8N GraphQL node does not natively have the ability to fetch pages.

This simple 3 node workflow displays how to setup a cursor to fetch all items in a collection.

Note : The pageSize in the "Shopify, products" node is set to 5 to illustrate how querying by cursor works. In production set this to a much larger value.

Also, Update the Endpoint in GraphQL node to reflect your Shopify store.

4. Reproducing the Workflow from Scratch

  1. 1. Download the workflow JSON

    Use the JSON export at /data/workflows/5663/5663.json as the source template for this automation.

  2. 2. Import the template into n8n

    Open n8n, import the downloaded JSON, and review each node before activating the workflow.

  3. 3. Configure credentials and variables

    Replace placeholder credentials, API keys, webhook URLs, account IDs, and environment-specific values with your own settings.

  4. 4. Test with sample data

    Run the workflow manually or in a staging workspace, inspect node output, and confirm downstream systems receive the expected data.

  5. 5. Activate and monitor

    Enable the workflow only after testing, then monitor executions, errors, and rate limits during the first production runs.

5. General Notes & Resources

Review imported nodes carefully before activation. This catalog entry is intended to help you inspect the workflow structure, understand required services, and find related templates faster.

Node names, credentials, schedules, webhook paths, and external service limits may need adjustment for your workspace.
