Watch out for

Shopify API rate limits can block large batches, so implement a delay between requests or use batch mutations.
Duplicate slugs will cause silent failures in bulk operations, so query existing products first to skip matches.
GraphQL errors often return partial success data, so parse the response carefully to identify which items failed.
Price formatting issues can break inventory creation, so ensure all numeric values are passed as strings without currency symbols.
