The Shopify Basic tier is no longer sufficient for using Print Your Cause to process orders. We do require a custom application to access the address information needed for us to ship the orders.
At this point in the process, you have requested and gained Shopify collaborator access to your customer's Shopify account. 

If you do not, you are able to go through that process here

From your Shopify Collaborator page, you select to login to the Shopify store you are looking to connect.

Go to  Settings and then Apps and sales channels. From here you will select to Develop apps.

You will then create an app using your email > Create app

A personal email is not required to create an app. Many accounts use a general inbox such as info@ or support@ for this portion of the set up. It is important whatever email is used is one where the inbox is monitored on a regular basis.

From the app page select to Configure Admin API scopes.

You will then be prompted to select read and write permissions. To ensure a smooth connection, we recommend selecting the following permissions then select Save

Assigned fulfillment orders write_assigned_fulfillemnt_orders
read_assigned_fulfillemnt_orders
Fulfillment services write_filfillments
read_fulfillments
Inventory write_inventory
read_inventory
Orders write_orders
read_orders
Products write_products
read_products
Third-party fulfillment orders write_third_party_fulfillment_orders
read_third_party_fulfillment_orders

At this point, you are ready to select to Install app > Install

Select to Reveal token once and copy the text once shown.

Store this token in a secure place. It will not be visible on this page again.
Keep this token until the app is synced successfully with Print Your Cause. 

Once this is completed, your account manager will create a Shopify-integrated store in your Print Your Cause account.
