You can choose the mode of opening by choosing either Open new tab or Embedded App

Open new tab

Embedded App

Click the button to select app proxy page path. Click add more if you want to set up a new one, click edit if you want to modify existing app proxy page path.

App proxy page path & Iframe URL

App proxy page path is the page path that merchants use to access the Iframe embedded App proxy page. To do this, you need to configure the mapping here so that our system will redirect merchants to the app proxy page with the specific path.

ii. Set up Callback URL if callback request is selected

The callback URL is used to receive the resource ids from server side.

In addition, you can also enable the task url feature to set up the button action such as the mode of page opening and landing page url as well. The set up flow is similar to direct request mentioned above.

c. Button text

Button that powered by Admin app extension support multi language. Currently we support English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai.

4. Submit the app and wait for approval

The admin link will be active after the merchant installs the app. For app installation, please refer to https://dash.readme.com/project/shopline-developers/v1.0/docs/install-an-app-1
