Configuration - custom app

Proceed with those steps only if you are asked for a client id and client secret. Step 4b: Go to the Dev Dashboard (https://dev.shopify.com/dashboard) and follow the steps outlined in this article to activate and create a custom app:

• https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/build/dev-dashboard/create-apps-using-dev-dashboard
  • The following scopes are needed:
    • read_orders
    • read_all_orders (if you need to retrieve orders older than 60 days). Note that if you are creating the app as a partner of the merchant, you will need to retrieve extra access through the partner dashboard, see the documentation: https://shopify.dev/docs/api/usage/access-scopes#orders-permissions. Once this is done, you will be able to see “read_all_orders” in the scopes available (refresh the page if needed)
    • read_returns
    • read_discounts
    • read_products
    • read_customers
  • The redirection url is the following “https://chift.app/oauth2/redirect”.
• You don’t have to install the application.

Here are a few screenshots outlining the steps: Step 5b: Click on “Settings” in the menu on the left. Copy the “Client id” / “Secret” Step 6b: Paste the client id / client secret in the respective fields and click on “Authorise”. You will be redirected and asked to install the application. Please proceed for a successful installation.
