How to add app embeds for custom apps?

Retired Boards Appdev Extensions

I’m creating custom apps for stores and I don’t know how to add the app embeds blocks to it.

While for public extensions this is easily done using Shopify cli, for custom apps it doesn’t work:

  • the custom app can not be linked because it doesn’t appear in the list (in command line)

  • within shopify.app.config-name.toml I didn’t see any configuration to set an app as custom

So I’m pretty stucked on this.

Hi Alex,

Did you create the custom app with the CLI and associated it with your partner account?

yes, in the meantime got fixed using the Shopify CLI to associate it with an existing APP. Seems that you can’t do that without, like when the customer creates the custom app, and you get developer access to it.
