  2. identified Apr 16, 2026, 09:00 AM UTC

    Syncs using the `order_agreements` stream in the Shopify source connector are failing with the error: ``` The parent 'node' field for a nested connection must return a type that implements the 'Node' interface. ``` This is caused by a change on Shopify's side to their Bulk Operations API validation. The stricter validation now rejects bulk queries where nested connections use types that don't implement the `Node` interface — the `agreements` connection falls into this category .
