Client Id parameter coming up undefined using shopify-node-api when building auth URL

Retired Boards Appdev Authentication

I want to use the shopify-node-api library to conduct OAuth to connect to my clients’ Shopify store to view products.

My config looks like so:

const shopifyConfig = {
  shop: 'marketpryce-test.myshopify.com',
  api_key: process.env.SHOPIFY_API_KEY,
  shared_secret: process.env.SHOPIFY_SECRET_KEY,
  redirect_uri: 'localhost:3000/matches',
  shopify_scope: 'read_products',
  nonce: randomUUID()
};

I’m calling the buildAuthUrl() function which generates a url with the client_id param set like so:

client_id=undefined

I’ve logged my env variable at runtime and it is successfully getting my API Key and Secret Key for my app so I’m not sure why the client_id is coming up undefined.

Does my app need to be in a different state in order to successfully complete the OAuth workflow? I’m trying to test it using a development store that I’ve created.

Hi Zsam56 - is this the library you’re using? If so, you may need to open an issue in that repo describing the Auth issues you’re experiencing. It also seems to be an old library so there may be aspects that are not currently supported.
