## What's New:

### Shopify — "Get Customer Order" Automation Action

A new **Get Customer Order** action is available in the Shopify integration, enabling automations to fetch order details for a given customer directly from a Shopify store. This expands the Shopify connector surface alongside the existing Shopify triggers and actions.

Relevant docs: [Automation Actions](/automations/automation/actions.md) · [Integrations](/automations/automation/integrations.md)

### Genesis App Authentication — Space Identities Foundation

An internal per-space identity data layer has been introduced to support **per-identity, per-space authentication records**. Each identity entry stores auth-method metadata (password hash, OAuth provider tokens, etc.) keyed by type. This is the foundational schema for upcoming Genesis app-level multi-auth flows — developers building apps with custom auth or per-user identity management will benefit when the feature becomes publicly configurable.

## Improvements & Fixes:

* Fixed a logical issue with AI credit calculation that could produce incorrect credit balances.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.taskade.com/changelog/changelog-2026/january-2026/january-2-2026.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
