Yes, you can automate updating product inventory levels across multiple Shopify stores using GraphQL API calls via curl. This allows you to read and adjust inventory levels across different locations programmatically without manual intervention.

Yes, you need a Shopify Admin API access token with specific scopes to manage products, orders, customers, and inventory via curl. This token authenticates your GraphQL API requests to perform necessary CRUD operations on your store data.

Yes, using curl to interact with the Shopify GraphQL API works across Linux, macOS, and Windows platforms. You also need jq installed as a dependency to parse and process the JSON responses returned by the API calls.

Using curl for Shopify store management means you must manually construct GraphQL queries and handle JSON parsing with jq. This approach requires direct interaction with raw API endpoints, lacking the built-in abstractions and error handling provided by traditional SDKs.
