Permissions
What the Shopify app asks for and why.
At install, SellingIO asks Shopify for the six permissions below. Identifiers are not translated. Each one maps to a sync job: pull listings, push products you choose, read and update stock, pull orders, and map warehouses to Shopify locations.
The same list is in the privacy policy.
What we ask for
| Permission | What it is used for |
|---|---|
read_products | Pull product listings into your canonical catalogue. |
write_products | Push products from the canonical catalogue to Shopify. |
read_inventory | Read stock numbers on Shopify. |
write_inventory | Update stock numbers on Shopify. |
read_orders | Pull orders so you can manage them in SellingIO: the buyer's phone, the order note, and the recipient's name, phone and shipping address. We do not request the buyer's email address, name or customer ID. |
read_locations | Read Shopify locations so warehouses can be mapped. |
How to check it worked
The grant screen you approved listed these six scopes. You can match each identifier to the purpose in the table.
A permission looks unfamiliar
These six are the only scopes the app requests. If Shopify shows a different set, stop and use the contact form rather than granting something this page does not list.
