Invalid metafield queries now return errors in the GraphQL Admin API
Starting in API version 2026-10, the GraphQL Admin API returns an error when a query filters by a metafield that isn't set up for filtering, instead of silently returning incorrect results. This is a breaking change. It affects apps that filter resources by metafield on version 2026-10 or later, and you'll need to update affected queries before you upgrade.
