newbie Custom App Setup

Shopify Apps
1

soooo… first custom app in Shopify. I followed the step by step instructions and even used ChatGPT. I am trying to build a simple app so that outside websites can get my Shopify products and attributes about my products such as QTY in stock in a JSON format. I selected the read_products and read_inventory. Got my access token and all the keys. I set up my postman to test the custom app and I keep getting a 404 error. There is literally nothing I can do to get this to work. I am pulling my hair out. Can someone please give me some guidance? I have Authorization Bearer Token set. headers have json for the content. mystore.myshopify.com/admin/api/2025-01/products.json

anybody got any ideas or suggestions? there has to be something I am missing.

I can go into my store and click products, and yes, I have products.

Check example here https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-rest
Make sure you have same http headers and request type

ok so after googling for about an hour or so last night, I finally ran across someone who also had the same issue. 404 error on products.json. so in the examples, they tell you to put myDomain.myShopify.com/admin/api/version/page.json. So, logically, you change myDomain to whatever your domain is in the Shopify store. The issue is the .myshopify.com. That shouldn’t be there. Once I removed .myshopify. from the URL request, magically it works. So, there ya go guys. Hopefully this will save someone else hours of trying to get it to work bc of a bad example.
