Use New Markets preview to install test app, tip:This app is not compatible with Markets

Topic summary

A developer encountered a compatibility error when trying to install their test app in a Shopify development store with the new Markets preview feature. The error message stated “This app is not compatible with Markets,” even after removing market-related interfaces and permissions from the app.

Troubleshooting attempted:

  • Removed market interfaces and related permissions
  • Verified other apps without market permissions installed normally

Suggested solution:

  • Check shopify.app.toml (or .js) and package.json for residual market configurations
  • Search codebase for market-specific code
  • Clean build artifacts (delete node_modules and build folders)
  • Reinstall dependencies and rebuild
  • Consider re-registering the app or contacting Shopify Partner Support

Resolution:
The issue was resolved by updating the app version to 2025-04, suggesting the compatibility problem was tied to an outdated API version.

I created a development store to test the market function. When installing, it prompts that the app is not compatible with the market function. I removed the market interface used and the relevant permissions, but it still prompts incompatibility. I tested other apps that did not use relevant permissions and they displayed normally. Now what should I do so that the incompatibility prompt will not be displayed during installation?

Hello!

To resolve the persistent “app not compatible with the market function” prompt after removing market features, meticulously review your shopify.app.toml (or .js) and package.json for any remaining market-related configurations or dependencies. Thoroughly search your codebase for any market-specific code and remove it. Clean your txtag build artifacts by deleting node_modules and your build folder, then reinstall dependencies and rebuild. As a last resort, consider re-registering your app or contacting Shopify Partner Support for deeper investigation. The issue likely stems from residual market configurations within your app’s files.
