Hello Team,
i have created a custom app a few days ago on the newly released dashboard. but i was able to get the clientid , the secret key , but not able to get the access token of the user and the shopify url. to use them in my requests to shopify api end point.
in the old version we was able to get the token after installing the app.
how could we got it in this new version?
Please do search the forums, there have been many posts related to this which have a solution.

according to documentation from this link:Using the client credentials grant
i got client_id, client_secret from app settings and used this request for the created “Mandala - Mudi“ app, but it always responds 404 not found. What’s wrong with what we do here?
url:https://mudi.myshopify.com/admin/oauth/access_token
Method type: Post
body:
{
“client_id”: “******************”,
“client_secret”: “………………………………..“,
“grant_type”: “client_credentials”
}
It doesn’t look like this store exists, which is probably why you’re getting a 404.
as attached in the image , there is an app created and installed with name “Mandala - Mudi“ , so what are we missing here ? and how can we apply that?
The URL should be the store url which you’re wanting to get an access token for.
for this app,https://dev.shopify.com/dashboard/129955081/apps/311001808897
could you help me please to know the url i should use to generate the token?
http://50c143-37.myshopify.com/admin/oauth/access_token
i used this one before , and it responds with 403 forbidden
you post request header Content-Type application/x-www-form-urlencoded , check your content-type and body fomat
i already used the request in this format , but response is still 403 “Forbidden“.
is the url :”http://50c143-37.myshopify.com/admin/oauth/access_token” is a correct one to be used?
or am i missing any step should be applied before getting the token from this request?
We have no idea if thats the correct URL, you should be using the URL of the store you want to get an access token to as mentioned already.
my question is , how should i get the store url to be sure that i’m using the correct one or not?
@Ahmad_Anwar, to confirm the correct myshopify.com domain: in the admin of the store you’re installing on, go to Settings > Domains and look for the myshopify.com address listed there.
On the 403, my guess is you’re hitting the OAuth error:
shop_not_permitted: Client credentials cannot be performed on this shop
If that’s the case, it usually means you’re trying to use client credentials from your Partner org/app against a merchant store. That flow won’t work in that direct way for installing/authing against a merchant shop.
I’d start by (1) validating the myshopify.com domain, then (2) grabbing the full 403 response details (status + message/body) so we can confirm the exact cause.
i think there are the domains you talked about. if yes?
i used the first one in the request which responds with 403
that’s the request i used with header Content-Type application/x-www-form-urlencoded.
if i converted the url from http to https , the response become “400” bad request
Is the store your own? Or are you a collaborator on it?
If you’re a collaborator, do you have all permissions to the scopes that your app requires, etc?
I am a collaborator who has been added to the store with permission to create and manage development apps. I am also the developer who originally created this development app.
The app was created under the old version, with the same scopes that are currently attached, and it was working perfectly before. However, at the moment, I am facing an issue while trying to obtain the access token.
Can you please provide the full 403 response details?
when i changed the url from http to https , it responds with 400 instead of 403

Oops, something went wrong.
What happened?
Oauth error shop_not_permitted: Client credentials cannot be performed on this shop.
What can I do?
- Press the back button on your browser.
- Return to your admin dashboard.
Request ID: c4c01eea-fec9-4491-8f65-eae76b67c621-1768908431
the error is : Oauth error shop_not_permitted: Client credentials cannot be performed on this shop.
but i made sure of the client_id , secret_key , i got them from the settings and they are correct, so what’s the probelm?
is the development app must be created from the account of the store owner?
