Shopify Global Catalog API · Endpoint removal
The Global Catalog REST API stops working
Stops working (in 10 days)
On November 2, 2026, the Global Catalog REST API stops serving traffic. Requests to the /global/* endpoints will fail after this date. This follows the deprecation announced on April 1, 2026.
What to use instead of these calls
Move each call to the Global Catalog MCP server. Use search_catalog for /global/v2/search, get_product for /global/v2/p/{upid} and by-variant lookups, and lookup_catalog for /global/v2/lookup. The move takes more than changing an identifier, as the integration must be rewritten for an MCP server with UCP catalog schemas rather than a REST endpoint.
The replacement is an MCP server with the UCP catalog schemas, not a REST endpoint: the integration is rewritten.
