I do not mean how do I delete an app from a store which is easy. I mean how do I delete and app I created? Thanks.

I already saw this thread https://community.shopify.com/post/1870233 but it wasn’t helpful

Admin > Settings > Apps and sales channels > Develop apps > click the name of the app > click uninstall.

To delete a Shopify app you created:

  1. Log in to Shopify Partner Dashboard.
  2. Find your app and open its details.
  3. Look for an uninstall or delete option.
  4. Confirm the deletion.
  5. Review and adjust permissions if necessary.
  6. Check for confirmation email (if applicable).

None of my apps are listed on that page.

When you say “details” do you mean the apps overview page? Also, there is no uninstall or delete option in the overview page for me.

This is only for unlisted apps. What about taking down a listed app?

I found this which details how to do it.

Please check your role on the Partners Account. There is a possibility that you are not the owner of that partners account. You are a team member with no access to Delete an App.
In that case, you might need to ask the account owner to give you access to delete an app.

In your app/Build/Configuration page, scroll down to bottom, you will see a Delete this app button.

Hi … I am building the uninstall feature for my (new) app.

A merchant taps my button to say “uninstall this app” …

First, I will do some metafield (etc) cleanup to his store, then want to do the actual uninstall. I see some references to how to do this using the rest API, such as https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/build/authentication-authorization/app-installation/uninstall-app-api-request, but that API is going away soon, so would not be a brilliant choice … right?

How can I do the actual uninstall by another API?

Thanks! jb

F…… Shopify is changing things for no reason. In fact, that’s why people are moving to other vendor from this Sh..
