Hey there,
How can I add mobile_platform_applications access scope to the custom app which is tied to Store account?

I need to make API requests for MobilePlatfromApplication and it requires the scope I mentioned.

Link to official doc → https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-rest/2023-07/resources/mobileplatformapplication#top

Note:
I’ve already checked the scopes I have within custom app’s Admin API and Storefront API scope configurations and mobile_platform_applications is not available there.

I’ll appreciate for quick reply, thanks !
Alex

Hi Alex,

The mobile_platform_applications scope is accessible through the usual method of enabling scopes. Depending on the type of app and your use-case it might be possible to enable this if you make a request via Partner Support in your partner dashboard.

Hope this helps!

How can I do it in case when the store where app is placed is not tidied to partner account?
Is there any way to do it?

Hi Alex,

I’m not 100% sure I understand by the app is not tied to a partner account - is the custom app not your app, but another developers?

The store I have the app in was not created through partners, the app is mine. The main question is the following.
Is it possible to add additional access scope to the app which is in the store that was not created through partnership account?

Hey Liam,
I was able to solve the problem with getting required access scope to my custom app via Shopify Plus support team. Now my custom app has required access to make any MobilePlatformApplication API requests. The problem here is that now I’m getting 404 Not Found error after makeing any MobilePlatformApplication API request.
Maybe you have any ideas why?

Hi Liam,

Please clarify what you mean by “usual method”. The scope is no where to be found in my custom app settings.
