Shopify silently upgrades pinned API apps on July 16
Shopify will retire API version 2025-07 on July 16, 2026, but pinned apps won't see errors—they'll silently fall forward to version 2025-10. This means apps receive responses from an untested schema, with fields potentially null or missing. The only clue is the X-Shopify-API-Version response header, which most clients ignore.
