Shopify API Key Generation Guide

How to Get Your Shopify Access Token (2 Ways):

Method 1: One-Click Authorization (Recommended)

Simply enter your shop name and click the "One-click Authorize" button. The token will be fetched and filled automatically.

* Note: Access tokens generated this way are temporary and expire in 24 hours. The next time you use it, you will need to click the authorization button again to get a new one.

Method 2: Manual Permanent Token (Guides Below)

If you prefer a permanent token that never expires, follow the step-by-step instructions below to generate a permanent Admin API access token manually from your Shopify admin panel.

* Crucial Note: Generating a manual permanent token is only supported for Shopify stores created before 2026. Stores created since January 1, 2026, only support temporary access tokens by Shopify's official policy.
