How can I create private endpoints in my application?

[betoxx1]

Hello,

I am trying to create an endpoint in my shopify application to send information that the customer will enter into the app. I already tried creating the endpoints inside app.prepare().then(() =>{}) and it works. The problem is that these endpoints can be accessed by any application outside the store. Is there any way that only the tianda is able to access these endpoints? I tried adding the endpoints using verifyRequest() but this sends me error.

Hi @betoxx1 ,

Please look into using App Proxy app extension for your private app. That way you can verify that the HTTP request initiated from your Shopify storefront.

Im using th app proxy, Is just that i thogt that the app authentication had a way to avoid request from a diference source. Do I have to do  the source verification my self or shopify have a official way to do this?

Hi @betoxx1 

You’ll have to verify the signature on each proxy request. It’s detailed in the tutorial link.
