Description

Is there a specific app this action is for? Need an action for Shopify app to upload images or videos to Shopify files section

Please provide a link to the relevant API docs for the specific service / operation. This is an example of how this is being done VIA NodeJS step https://community.shopify.com/c/graphql-basics-and/full-process-for-uploading-files-to-the-files-api/td-p/1423503 but the problem is I don't quite understand the authentication process for this I got to upload the file with correct response showing file uploaded but it fails the processing on the store front. greatly appreciate it if this can be done in a pre-built step.

Research direction
The issue requests a new Pipedream action for Shopify file upload. The contributor should review Shopify's GraphQL API for file uploads (see community post link). They should also examine existing Shopify actions in the Pipedream repository (e.g., components/shopify/) to understand the pattern for building components. The authentication part needs to be clarified; the issue author mentions issues with processing after upload. The contributor may need to test the upload flow and ensure the action works end to end.
