Loading API

The Loading API lets you display a loading indicator in the Shopify admin header. App Home UI extensions control it through shopify.loading on the shopify global object. Use this to signal that a page is loading, data is being fetched, or an upload is processing. The indicator appears at the top of the admin and persists until you explicitly stop it.
