Shopify scopes and data access
Hi all,
First, sorry as this is more of a Shopify question rather than a Gadget question, but I figured I could get help faster here 🤷♂️
My gadget app has the
read_customers scope, and is connected to a draft public app. I need the first_name and last_name fields from customer, but apparently Shopify will only give access to these after I submit the app for review, which is completely weird. Is there a way around that to access these fields in development?
I could use a custom app, but since the app is subscription based, that would break other functionality in development.
Any help appreciated!15 Replies
Hi Renan,
You will need to fill out the "Protected Customer Data Access" in your Shopify Partners dashboard to get access. You can find it here within API access, in your App in your Partners page.
I've attached a screenshot of the menu as well to find it easier.
Hi Mark, thank you for your reply. I already did - however there's a banner mentioning that it will be reviewed once I submit the app.
I assumed it'd give me access in development at least, but it didn't. Maybe it's a bug?
That definitely sounds like an issue on Shopify’s end but let me double check something
Do you mind reminding me the application URL?
Sent you a DM
We tested making requests to a store's admin api on your renan env and it looks like you haven't filled out the form for the app that its connected to:
Well, it is filled, though 😕
Whats the client id for that application?
I just changed something and saved to see if Shopify "validates" it this time
258863759361
That doesn't look like a client Id
The middle section doesn't seem filled out. Thats the one that matters
Sorry, 6f66260f646b737b88184520044bb81c
This is what my PCDA form looks like when I fill out the optional fields
Hmmm I probably assumed that the fields shown there were selected by default. That's probably it, I just selected customer name
Let us know if that doesn't fix it
Yes, that was it. Thank you!
No problem!
