App reviews, troubleshooting, and recommendations
Hi there, I'm starting to work on Shopify App Development, currently figuring out app block / embed extensions. I'm having issues developing because I'm struggling to see updated changes in the codebase in the development store. Through the shopify-CLI I see that changes are indeed pushed by seeing logs that say:
"Pushed » 'xxx' to a draft"
I have the automatic config update to true:
automatically_update_urls_on_dev = true
Sometimes, the changes are updated right away and sometimes it takes a few minutes. What can this be?
Aside of that, i have some settings that are modified in the theme editor, while adding the app extension in the respective sections of the store. I'm also having issues when updating this values, because they are not being updated in the UI of my code.
I would like to figure out what can be the issue, so I can keep investigating and find a solution. Thanks 🙂
Solved! Go to the solution
This is an accepted solution.
I created a new store and installed the app, and everything seems to work well. Basically, I will have a custom store just for my own development, whoever develops aside of me will create it's own store so we each work on different stores and there aren't any connecting issues to the same store.

Having this happen regardless of the store. The only way I can get it to update is to hide the app block in Customize Theme, save, unhide the block and save again. Very annoying.
