Built for Shopify: latest App Bridge not being detected despite migrating to latest version

Built for Shopify
1

Hi,

We’ve migrated to the latest version of App Bridge based on Shopify’s instructions:

  • The CDN version of app-bridge.js is loaded in the <head> of every page (without defer or async)
  • data-api-key is set, and the shopify object is initialized in the console
  • The @shopify/app-bridge package and other old dependencies have been removed

However, the “Use the latest version of App Bridge on every page of your app” checkbox under the Built for Shopify badge remains unchecked — even though this version has been live for ~2–3 days.

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance

Hi Kia - have you navigated the app’s UI via a dev store in the past 24 hours? If everything’s set up correctly, that should trigger a re-check.

Yes, after deploying the new version, I navigated through various pages of the app using a dev store.

Interestingly, a few hours after creating this thread — without making any further changes to the app — the checkbox was finally marked as completed.

Thanks a lot for your help!

Great to hear - it’s possible it just needed additional time for the info to populate across to the partner dashboard.

Hello,

I’m encountering the same issue. My app went live with App Bridge v4 at night on August 29th. On August 30th, in the morning, we lost BFS status. It’s now over 24 hours since the BFS status has been removed, but the “Distribution” page in the Shopify Partners dashboard still has not detected App Bridge v4. This is confusing because the page indicates that requirements are checked every day around 17:00 UTC. When can we expect to get our BFS status restored?

Thanks,

Tobe

Hi Tobe,

This could be a separate issue - DMing you for details.
