Demonstrates a simple Shopify GraphQL query to get specific fields of the Shop object. C#

bool success = false;

//  This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
//  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

Chilkat.Http http = new Chilkat.Http();

//  This example will use private authentication (which is HTTP Basic authentication)
//  See the other Chilkat Shopify examples for OAuth2 authentication.
//  To use HTTP Basic Authentication with any HTTP request, we simply set the Login, Password, and BasicAuth properties.
//  Important: All HTTP requests using Basic authentication must be over SSL/TLS.
http.Login = "SHOPIFY_PRIVATE_API_KEY";
http.Password = "SHOPIFY_PRIVATE_API_SECRET_KEY";
http.BasicAuth = true;

//  We're going to do a POST  https://{shop}.myshopify.com/admin/api/2021-04/graphql.json
//  Make sure to replace "chilkat" with your store name.

//  The body of the request will be:
//     {
//         shop {
//             id
//             name
//             description
//             email
//          }
//      }

//  The above query is not JSON.  It looks like JSON, but it's actually not.
//  We'll just make it one line:

string query = "{ shop { id name description email } }";

//  My store name is "chilkat".  Use your store name here instead.
