The "Notify Me!" app helps you boost sales and customer satisfaction by managing restock notifications and preorders. To provide seamless and efficient service, the app requires specific permissions to access and manage data within your Shopify store. Below is a detailed breakdown of these permissions and how they enable the core features of "Notify Me!". By granting this access, you ensure full functionality for the app, helping you effectively manage customer updates and preorders.
1. View and Write Shop Customer Data
Customer Management & Integrations: Used for managing customer wishlist data, enabling third-party integrations (to share customer contact data with your other apps), and supporting B2B features for business customers with multiple locations.
2. View and Write Products (Inventory, Products, or Collections)
Core Functionality: Essential for enabling key features like back-in-stock subscriptions, pre-orders, and low stock alerts. "Write" access is specifically needed to manage pre-order-related settings within Shopify.
3. Access to Store Owner Contact Information
Account & Support: Used for account management, communication, and other support or legal purposes.
4. View and Write Orders
Pre-Order Tracking: Required to tag pre-orders, which allows the "Notify Me!" App to accurately identify and track them.
5. Access to Shop Locales and Translations
Multi-lingual Support: Allows the app to be multi-lingual and usable for non-English speaking customers.
6. Access to Shop Locations & Shopify Markets Settings
Inventory Accuracy & Localization: Access to Shop Locations ensures accurate inventory tracking, making back-in-stock, pre-order, and low stock alerts more reliable. For instance, it allows the app to target online-only locations for relevant notifications. Access to Shopify Markets Settings is needed to use shop locations in conjunction with Shopify Markets.
7. Editing Online Store (Themes)
Widget Integration: Necessary for adding the "Notify Me!" widget to your existing online store themes.
