Description
Issue
I am using the Shopify Python API to create products across multiple stores. My process involves activating a session for each store before making API requests. However, I am concerned about potential race conditions when handling concurrent requests.
Scenario
I activate a session for Store A and start creating a product using the GraphQL API.
While the above request is in progress, I activate a session for Store B and start creating a product for that store.
Question: Could the session for Store A be mistakenly used for the request intended for Store B due to a race condition in concurrent scenarios? In other words, is there a risk of one store's session being overridden or misapplied during concurrent requests?
Additional Context
I am aware that the activate_session method sets the session globally. My concern is whether concurrent operations might lead to session conflicts, where one thread might use the session intended for another.
If this is a known issue, are there recommended practices for managing sessions in a multi-threaded or concurrent environment to avoid such conflicts?
