Specifies the authentication method used to connect to your Shopify store.

Possible Values

Data Type

string

Default Value

"OAuth"

Remarks

Use this property to control how the provider authenticates with the Shopify API:

• OAuth: Select this to authenticate using the standard OAuth 2.0 Authorization Code grant. This option is recommended for most integrations (especially public apps) as it supports user consent.
• OAuthClient: Select this to authenticate using the OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials grant. This is used for server-to-server integrations where the application authenticates directly without user interaction.
• AccessToken: Deprecated. Select this to authenticate using a static Admin API Access Token generated from a Custom App. Existing tokens continue to work, but new Admin API Access Tokens cannot be created using this method. Use OAuth or OAuthClient instead.
