I. Install a custom app

To use Magestore POS, we expect you to generate a custom app from Shopify Admin. Then configure this custom app to get access to Magestore POS.

Step 1: Create a new custom app

First, you need to open the Settings page of Shopify. In the App and sales channels tab:

1. Click on the button “Develop apps”

   

2. Click on Develop app → Allow custom app development

   

3. Next, create an app

   

4. Fill in the app name and select the app developer

   

5. Click on the Create app button and move to step 2.

Step 2: Configure required scopes

To integrate Magestore POS, you must configure the Admin scope for the newly created custom app.

• In the Configuration app of this custom app, click on the Configure button of Admin API integration

• Select 19 scopes below :

  • write_assigned_fulfillment_orders

  • read_assigned_fulfillment_orders

  • write_customers

  • read_customers

  • read_discounts

  • write_draft_orders

  • read_draft_orders

To activate the Magestore POS app, firstly you need to get 3 fields below from your custom app:

Step 2: Register an account in Magestore POS

After getting the custom app's API access token and API key, access the Magestore POS URL: http://admin.pos.magestore.com/
