Hi Shopify Team,

We have question on authorising the incoming traffic to a shopify ecom site.

We want to allow the traffic to shopify site only from Snapchat. So, in such cases, can we restrict the access to shopify site only for those who are visiting site from Snapchat?

Since Shopify is hosting the site, wanted to understand if we can have these kind of restrictions.

Waiting for your reply.

Thank you,

Pranita A
