# Shopify Tax calculation requests and tax summary webhooks switch to Global IDs in 2027-01

Markdown version of <https://harbyn.com/changes/shopify/2026-10-01-tax-webhook-summary-and-calculation-requests-now-use-global-ids>.

Breaking change - Shopify. medium severity. Announced.

From API version 2027-01, third-party tax apps receive Global IDs (gid://shopify/...) instead of numeric or string IDs for Customer, Company, CompanyLocation, Product and ProductVariant in tax calculation requests, and for all entity IDs in the summary section of tax summary webhooks. The webhook also adds admin\_graphql\_api\_id, shop\_admin\_graphql\_api\_id and order\_admin\_graphql\_api\_id; shop\_id and order\_id stay integers. Update ID parsing before upgrading.
