# Connect Egentify to Your Shopify Store — No Coding

> Install the Egentify app from the Shopify App Store, connect your store, and deploy your AI support agent on your storefront — no coding required.

Installing and connecting Egentify to your Shopify store takes under 5 minutes and requires no coding. Once connected, your AI support agent is live on your storefront and ready to handle customer questions about orders, products, returns, and more.

## Install the app

  </Step>

  <Step title="Review the requested permissions">
    Shopify displays the permissions Egentify requires before you confirm. The app needs read access to your products, orders, customers, and store content, plus write access to orders so your AI agent can process refunds and update shipping addresses on your behalf.

    Sign in to your existing Egentify account or create a new one — it's free to get started.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Your store is linked automatically">
    Egentify creates a new project and links it to your store. You'll land on your project dashboard where you can configure your AI agent.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Enable the chat widget

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open your theme customizer">
    In your Shopify admin, go to **Online Store > Themes** and click **Customize** on your active theme.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open App Embeds">
    Click **App Embeds** in the left sidebar of the theme editor.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Toggle on the chat widget">
    Find **Chat widget** in the list and toggle it on.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Adjust position and offset (optional)">
    Expand the embed settings to fine-tune the widget's position and offset values to fit your storefront's layout.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save your changes">
    Click **Save** in the top-right corner. The widget is now live on your storefront.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Permissions the app uses

Egentify requests only the permissions it needs to answer customer questions and take permitted actions on your behalf.

| Permission         | Scope                                            | Why Egentify needs it                                                                                               |
| ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

| Orders             | `read_orders`, `read_all_orders`, `write_orders` | Retrieves order status and history; creates refunds and updates addresses when a customer requests it               |
| Customers          | `read_customers`                                 | Identifies the customer and retrieves their purchase history for personalised support                               |
| Content & Policies | `read_content`, `read_legal_policies`            | Reads your store's pages and legal policies (returns, shipping, privacy) so the agent can cite accurate information |
| Theme              | `read_themes`                                    | Reads your active theme to inject the chat widget correctly via the app proxy                                       |
| App Proxy          | `write_app_proxy`                                | Enables the Egentify widget endpoint to be served through your Shopify storefront domain                            |

## Disconnecting

To remove Egentify from your store, go to **Shopify Admin > Settings > Apps**, find **Egentify**, and click **Uninstall**. Uninstalling cancels your subscription, removes the chat widget from your storefront, and revokes Egentify's access to your store data.

<Tip>
  After connecting, configure your AI agent's name, refund policy, and escalation behavior in **Settings** inside the Egentify app in your Shopify admin.
