Hi everyone! When I try to retrieve quantityAvailable via Storefront API, I got this error. Access denied for quantityAvailable field. Required access: `unauthenticated_read_product_inventory` access scope. I know unauthenticated_read_product_inventory is not the access scope that extensions init…

Hi there :waving_hand: At this time this scope is unavailable for the Storefront API via Checkout UI extensions. I have brought this to the attention of the team. You can also create a Github Issue requesting this scope be added.

Hi Lizk - any update on this? I would also like to be able to access this scope from Checkout UI extensions.

Edit: found the docs stating what scopes are available in UI extensions: https://shopify.dev/docs/api/checkout-ui-extensions/2024-04/configuration#api-access still seems weird not all of them are available. And the error message is just plain wrong then. How do you figure out a scope is unavaliable…

@frede-1994 I opened an issue on github about this 7 months ago, maybe if you added a comment there it might help bump it up in priority: https://github.com/Shopify/ui-extensions/issues/1594

Is there any way to add new access scope to checkout UI extension?

@lizk is there any update to this yet or are we still unable to access quantityAvailable in checkout UI extensions?
