Clone and edit the code of a custom app from a store in production

Hi, I have a question for you, in a store in production there is 1 custom application in which I must replace a part of the code.

Taking into account that I have not made this application, is it possible to recover or make a clone of this application to later edit it and send it to production?

If you could tell me a link with documentation about it or tell me the steps to follow, I would appreciate it.

Thanks!

Hey @Dav347

 

Shopify doesn't host any app code so there isn't a way to clone the code of an app. You'll need to get in touch with the developer who hosts the application to request changes or a copy of the code from them. 

 

If that isn't possible, then it would require building a new application. 

 

Hope that helps.
