Getting the "You are not authorized to use the CLI to develop in the provided store" error :(

I am attempting to pull down and edit my theme locally using the CLI and I’m getting this error - “You are not authorized to use the CLI to develop in the provided store.”

 

The command I’m trying to use is shopify theme dev and I’m using the latest version of the shopify CLI, node, etc.

 

The account I’m using to login is the store owner account so there should be no issue there. I’m seeing that some other people are running into this error as well. I tried reaching out to shopify support and they were absolutely no help whatsoever.

 

As a developer, I would love to be able to edit themes locally, and this is a huge hinderance to what i can accomplish. Thanks for any help!

 

One last thing, I saw a few other people in this forum having the same issue.  I tried everything that was offered and nothing works.  Thanks for any help!

I had the same problem, but I solved it with the following command line. Hope it helps.

shopify theme dev --store  <yourtore.myshopify.com>. Must be xxx.myshopify.com
