Is this showing to all Public Apps or just to specific app owners? I have this product review app which uses a Theme extension for product review, but also there is a customer dashboard for customers that is not a theme extension so do I need to convert that into a theme extension?
Apps must request approval from Shopify for create/update or delete access to Asset API version 2023
Topic summary
Shopify now requires apps to request approval for create/update/delete access to the Asset API (version 2023+).
User Concern:
A developer with a product review app is uncertain whether this requirement applies to all public apps or only specific ones. Their app includes:
- A theme extension for product reviews
- A customer dashboard (not a theme extension) that needs conversion to a theme extension
Clarification Provided:
The key question is whether the app makes any calls to the Asset API. After confirming the customer dashboard does not make Asset API calls, it was determined the app should not be affected by the upcoming deprecation.
Status: Resolved - no action needed if Asset API is not being used.
Hi Murgesh,
Is the customer dashboard for customers(or any other part of your app) making calls to the Asset API?
No, There is no call to Asset API for the customer dashboard.
Okay Murgesh - in that case, if you’re not making any calls to the Assets API then you should not be affected by the upcoming deprecation.
