Gift Card
A gift card is an alternative payment method. Each gift card has a unique code that is entered during checkout. Its balance can be redeemed over multiple checkouts. Optionally, a gift card can assigned to a specific customer. Gift card codes cannot be retrieved after they're created—only the last four characters can be retrieved.
Shopify Plus

The Gift Card resource is available for private apps installed on Shopify Plus stores. As of API version 2021-04, the Gift Card resource is also available for custom apps installed on Shopify Plus stores.

Your app must request the write_gift_cards and read_gift_cards access scopes. Merchants that want to sell or issue gift cards also need to activate the gift card feature in the Shopify admin.

It was decided to proceed with certification without this stream being implemented. Closing this for now.

I came across this issue while searching for any open discussions on implementing the stream. I have developed a working example for the gift card stream in my fork, with straightforward modifications based on the existing ShopifyIncrementalStream class.

Should there be any interest in revisiting and reopening this issue, I am prepared to contribute my implementation as my first official contribution to the project. I would appreciate your feedback on whether you see value in this addition. Thank you

@nickjoanis Hello and thank you for your interest in enhancing the Source Shopify. This stream is quite useful to have. We are interested in your contribution for sure. We now working on delivering the BULK Api version of the connector, as of here: #32345, all the improvements for this source are frozen until it's merged.

Feel free to make the PR and put me to the reviewers.
