How can I write a query to get all backordered orders?

Hi @sjdev!  
Unfortunately we don’t have a feature for that sorry. To be able to do that [you will have to query each order and get the Backorder quantities](https://community.shiphero.com/t/query-orders-with-backordered-items/742), something like this:

```
query{
  orders(shop_name: "mycustomshop.com"){
    request_id
    complexity
    data(first: 100) {
      edges {
        node {
          id
          legacy_id
          order_number
          fulfillment_status
          line_items(first:10) {
            edges {
              node {
                quantity_pending_fulfillment
                backorder_quantity
              }
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
} 

```

We are currently working on adding a filter for just “unfulfilled” orders, but that is still under development.  
Please let me know if there is anything else I could help you with.  
Thanks in advance!
