Are app links classified as extension?

Hi,

We have some App Links in our Shopify app. We are note sure if these are treated as extensions.

We see this in the Shopify Developer portal

Will our app with App Links be automatically migrated to Shopify’s new Developer Platform? And how can we check if the migration is done?

Please let us know.

Thanks,

Hi @aloke

The instances of app_link appear to be treated as extensions. Was this app created using the partner dashboard instead of the CLI? If so you can follow this doc to migrate: Migrate from a Partner Dashboard-managed app to Shopify CLI

Hi Liam,

Thanks for your response. The app was created from Partner Dashboard. We have never used CLI. Do we still have to migrate it manually or will it be migrated automatically?

Thanks,

Aloke
