She goes through the process and I follow. However, she gets a result that works I do not. It seems as if she works the code but the process of signing the app in thorough the portal is already done for her. I did everything to a T up to even choosing the same APP names but I cannot get mine to authenticate. I used the API credentials from the app and tried to install it in a test store. I notice in the accompanying docs there is a specification for the shop URL for example mygreatstore.myshopify.com however she specifies no such thing in her initialization function.Can anyone from shopify help because I have a good deal of experience with APIs and this one seems to be not very straight forward

Hi there!

We have made some changes recently so that video may be a little outdated.

I would recommend installing the latest version of the Shopify CLI.
https://shopify.dev/apps/tools/cli/installation

You can then install a starter Shopify App template that has the OAuth flow already implemented for you, so you can focus on building out the features of your application.
