Add more features to your custom app

By default, custom apps have limited access to the store data and features. For example, such apps cannot add new customers through REST API or automate store processes with webhooks. To unlock additional features, you need to update the app configuration.

Check out all features available for your app

Check List of app permissions and Ecwid API features articles to find what access scopes are enabled for your app by default and what additional permissions you may need for the app.

One application can have any amount of access scopes allowing it, for example, to add widgets on the storefront and manage backend integrations at the same time. We recommend choosing the minimum amount of scopes for your app.

Some features like webhook automations require self-hosted endpoints working on your servers. Prepare URLs before requesting application update.

If you are not yet sure about your app functionality or required access scopes, contact API Support team to get help.

Request application update

Once you prepared a list of required changes (access scopes, endpoint URLs, etc), request application update through the Ecwid admin.

This way, you'll get access to new features for your app in 24 hours or less on business days.
