Hello Community,

I’m trying to retrieve a list of apps that are currently embedded in the Shopify checkout page using the Admin API or any other method available.

I checked the appInstallations query in the Admin API, but it only provides details about installed apps, not specifically which ones are actively integrated into the checkout process.

The specific page in the Shopify Admin where I can see this information is:
:backhand_index_pointing_right: Settings > Checkout > Customize Checkout (Apps section)
URL format:
https://admin.shopify.com/store/{store-name}/settings/checkout/editor/profiles/{profile-id}?page=checkout&context=apps

Does anyone know if there is a GraphQL or REST API endpoint to fetch:

  1. The list of apps/extensions currently embedded in the checkout page?
  2. Any details on how to filter for Checkout UI Extensions or Checkout App Blocks?
  3. Workarounds or best practices to retrieve this data?

Any help or insights would be greatly appreciated! :rocket:

Thanks in advance!
