Hydrogen developer preview update: September 2, 2026

The Polaris CDN is adopting semantic versioning
Polaris Web Components loaded from the Shopify CDN are moving to semantic versioning. Most apps will continue receiving compatible improvements automatically, while developers can choose when to adopt breaking changes. Existing apps don’t need to take immediate action.
Variants now support multiple barcodes
Merchants often sell the same variant under more than one identifier: a manufacturer UPC alongside a private-label EAN, a GTIN, a reissued ISBN, or an ASIN for a marketplace listing. Until now a variant held a single barcode value, so the extras ended up in metafields, tags, or outside Shopify entirely.
Customer Address APIs now support countryCode
Starting with Customer Account API version 2026-10, customer address inputs and objects support countryCode . The existing territoryCode field is deprecated but remains fully supported, so current integrations continue working without interruption. Developers should migrate to countryCode when adopting API version 2026-10.

More resilient refreshes for expiring offline access tokens
