Installing a managed property?
Verify domain authorization and complete reviewed activation before a new managed property can serve its configuration. Follow the managed-service handoff, then return here for your platform’s installation steps. Installation status alone is not a live verification result.
Before you connect
Connecting takes a few minutes and is done from your StrongPrivacy workspace and your Shopify admin.
- A StrongPrivacy workspace.
- Permission to install apps in your Shopify admin: the store owner, or staff with app permissions.
- A Shopify property in StrongPrivacy for the store. Its domain must match the store's domain in Shopify.
You never share Shopify credentials
You only enter your store's
*.myshopify.comdomain and approve the installation in Shopify. StrongPrivacy never asks for your Shopify password or API keys.Connect a store
StrongPrivacy requests an expiring offline access token, stores its refresh pair atomically, subscribes to lifecycle webhooks, and prepares the selected property for the storefront extension.
