Installation
What your store needs, the permissions VendorDeck asks for, and what happens right after you install it.
Requirements
- An Online Store 2.0 theme, such as Dawn or Horizon. Vintage themes aren’t supported.
- The Online Store sales channel.
- A Vendor on your products. Products without one don’t belong to any brand.
Install
Install VendorDeck from the Shopify App Store and approve its permissions. You start on the Free plan, and can change plans later (Plans).
VendorDeck opens on its Dashboard and starts importing your brands, one for each vendor. The Importing your brands banner shows while it runs, which usually takes less than a minute.
Permissions
| Permission | Why |
|---|---|
| Products (read) | To find your vendors and count their products |
| Online store pages (read and write) | To create and update brand pages and the directory page |
| Themes (read) | To check that the blocks are on the right templates |
| Files (read and write) | To store logos and banners in Content > Files |
| Translations and store languages | To translate brand pages |
| App proxy | To load products and brands on your storefront |
VendorDeck never reads customers, orders or payments.
