Hi Maaazahmed,

The error you’re experiencing might occur due to several reasons. Here are a couple things you might want to check:

  1. Invalid Access Token: Make sure your customerAccessToken is valid. Access tokens can expire, so you should ensure it’s up-to-date.

  2. Incorrect Syntax: Look for any syntax errors in your mutation. In your case, there is a comma , before `metafields which may be causing a syntax error.

  3. Permissions: Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to update the customer’s metafields.

  4. Valid Namespace and Key: Make sure the namespace and key you are trying to update actually exist for this customer.

  5. Proper Value Input: Ensure that the value and valueType you are trying to update are compatible. In your case, it looks correct as you’re a string value.

Here’s your corrected mutation:

mutation {
  customerUpdate(
    customerAccessToken: "ba66f112107a1ffd4be40c6671d79431", 
    customer: {
      metafields: [{
        namespace: "instructions",
        key: "wash",
        valueInput: {
          value: "cold wash",
          valueType: "STRING"
        }
      }]
    }
  ) {
    userErrors {
      field
      message
    }
    customer {
      metafields(first: 100) {
        edges {
          node {
            id
            namespace
            key
            value
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

If possible can you also share the error message you’re seeing?

Hope this helps!

Thank You Laim

I have checked the access token, and it’s valid.

basically mutation is no accepting Metafields argument
