Js-buy-sdk: How do you get the Shopify Product IDs from API?

[misingnoglic]

Describe the bug
Hello.

With the Shopify Buy Button API, I'm able to do the following to iterate through all of my products:

client.product.fetchAll().then((products) => { // Do something with the products });
I would like to create a component for each of the products, using this call:

  ui.createComponent('product', {
  id: 12345,
  node: document.getElementById('product-0')
});

However, it seems that the IDs gathered by client.product.fetchAll() do not correspond with the ID for ui.createComponent. The client IDs seem to be some GraphQL IDs (eg Z2lkOi8vc2hvcGlmeS9Qcm9kdWN0LzI0NDk3Mjg4MzE1ODg=), while createComponent has some numerical IDs that correspond to the URLs on the shopify admin.

Is there no way to get the IDs that correspond to ui.createComponent?

Thank you!

To Reproduce
See above

Expected behavior
Ability to get the correct IDs for ui.createComponent

The GraphQL IDs are base 64 encoded. If you need to get the underlying numerical ID, you can base 64 decode it and then extract the ID.

Running atob("Z2lkOi8vc2hvcGlmeS9Qcm9kdWN0LzI0NDk3Mjg4MzE1ODg=")
will give you "gid://shopify/Product/2449728831588"
which means that your Product ID is 2449728831588.
