How to get

Create private app

  2. Click "Apps" in the sidebar on the left
  3. On the bottom of the page, click "Manage private apps" next to "Working with a developer on your shop?"
  4. Click the "Create a new private app" button
  5. Enter a "Private app name" of your choosing, e.g. "Meltano"
  6. Enter your email address under "Emergency developer email"
  7. In the "Admin API" section, click "▼ Review disabled Admin API permissions"
  8. Choose "Read access" rather than "No access" in the access level dropdowns for the following permissions:
  9. Products, variants and collections - read_products, write_products
  10. Orders, transactions and fulfillments - read_orders, write_orders
  11. Customer details and customer groups - read_customers, write_customers
  12. Click "Save"
  13. In the modal that appears, click "I understand, create the app"
Find your API password

Now that your app has been created, we can acquire the password Meltano will use to authenticate with the Shopify API.

  1. In the "Admin API" section on the private app details page, find the "Password" field and click "Show"
  2. The value that appears (starting with shppa_) is your API password. You can copy and paste it into the Meltano data source configuration.
