EAS Shopify collaboration request

In order for EAS to be able to configure the platform, EAS must have access to a number of settings in Shopify

To do the installation, EAS must have collaboration rights to your Shopify store. Collaboration rights does not mean administrative rights to your store. It is for temporary configuration assistance and you can remove the rights once configuration is complete. 

The collaboration rights requested
You can accept the installation request by going to the Shopify Admin panel, and Settings → Users and permissions. Scroll a little down and find the collaborator view. You will see the banner that says a collaboration request is pending. Once we have the rights, we install and set up the EAS Shopify App and test that everything works perfectly. After the installation, the collaboration rights can be removed.

We will send you instructions on registering the IOSS number with your logistics provider and your new IOSS number during the installation. You’ll be compliant shortly!
