We have had over 35 custom apps in our partner portal to distribute integration solutions. These apps have been used to monitor API health, webhooks, etc.
After they have been migrated to the new dev dashboard, we are not able to change webhook version used by the app. This now requires “creating a new version”. However, the button to do so is grayed out, because appearently we need to first migrate this app to Shopify CLI. We have never used Shopify CLI to create these apps in the first place. And these apps don’t have any UI extensions or Functions.
It is absolutely insane that we are now required to migrate 35+ projects to use Shopify CLI just to update webhook API version.
Typically apps without extensions would not require migrating to CLI in order to update a webhook version. However from digging into your case it looks like these apps were created when we had a legacy process in place. We’re exploring options to allow these apps to update webhook versions without requiring migration to the CLI. I’ll post here with an update or DM you when there’s more to share.
Hi Liam, I believe I have the same problem. We’ve never used Shopify CLI and now in the dev dashboard the ‘Create a version’ button is disabled. Is there a workaround for updating the webhook version?
If the Create a new version button is disable for an app it is likely because the app has extensions that need to be deployed with the CLI before a new version can be created. These instructions and explainer video go through the process of how to do this.
