   Response from Shopify Developer Support:

   James here from the Developer Support team at Shopify. John has caught me up to speed on your issue with your questions about the Python pyactiveresource library.

   My team does not support our public libraries, but I notice that the last commit was over 2 years ago, and their philosophy statement outlines how it aims to provide a "wrapper object-relational mapping for REST web services", but our REST Admin API's as a legacy API in our latest quarterly release.

   I reached out to our developers who work on the Python API library to see if I could get some clarification, and they confirmed that they we do not currently plan to map the existing GraphQL Admin client to use that resource based syntax. Their recommendation is to migrate to using GraphQL queries and mutations in order to move off of the REST Admin API for all of the current users of the client libraries in all languages.

   Our dev docs also have some resources on how to migrate from REST to GraphQL, but please let me know if you have any specific issues with how to implement a request in GraphQL and we can take another look.
