In order for us to do work such as migrations for your store, we often require API access. The following is a quick guide on how to do this.
Steps
1. Login to your Shopify dashboard and click on Apps in the left pane.
2. Scroll to the very bottom of the page and click Develop apps for your store.
3. Click Allow custom app development and confirm.
4. Click Create an app. Call the app "Yotabyte" and assign it to either a user you have created yourself with the correct permissions or an admin user. Confirm.
5. Click Configure Admin API scopes. Scroll through the scopes list and select anything beginning with read. Scroll back to the top and click save.
6. Click into API Credentials and copy the API Key and API secret key to a text document.
7. Click Install App, then click Install.
8. Click Reveal token once. Copy the characters revealed. Store this alongside the key and secret.
Sending the credentials securely
Navigate to a secure file sharing service and upload the file containing your API credentials. Choose a password for securing your details. Email the link to us. We recommend sending the password via a different means such as SMS for added security.
