Can we filter shopify products by weight using storefront GQL API?

Question

We are selling jewellery online and we need to implement product-filtering based on product weight using GQL.

I believe we need to do this in query param in products query. Something like query: {'minWeight':'10', unitOfWeight: 'GMS'}, this should list all products whose weight is greater than 10gms.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

The default query params for the StoreFront GraphQL API for the products are as follow:

available_for_sale
created_at
product_type
tag
title
updated_at
variants.price
vendor

There is no weight there, so no there is no way to achieve this with the StoreFront API.

The best approach will be to create a smart collection with the proper conditions to meet what you are looking for (since the collection allows for weight conditions) and make an ajax request to it to get the products.
