Installing the App

Getting dashboardSMASHBOARD onto your Shopify store takes about two minutes. Here's exactly what to do.

Prerequisites

• A Shopify store on any paid plan (Basic and above)
• Owner or staff account access with app installation permissions

Step 1: Find the App in the Shopify App Store

Head to the Shopify App Store and search for dashboardSMASHBOARD. Click the listing to open it.

Step 2: Click "Add app"

On the app listing page, click the Add app button. Shopify will ask you to confirm which store you're installing it on. Select your store and continue.

Step 3: Approve Permissions

You'll see a permissions screen listing what dashboardSMASHBOARD needs access to. We request read access to your orders, products, and customers — nothing more. Click Install app to approve.

Not sure why we need these permissions? See Connecting your store for a plain-English breakdown.

Step 4: You're in

After approval, you'll land on the dashboardSMASHBOARD dashboard. Your store data starts syncing immediately — most stores are fully loaded within a few minutes depending on order volume.

Next Steps

• Create your first dashboard
• Add your first smash
• Understand your data connection

Troubleshooting Installation

If the app doesn't appear after installation, try refreshing the Shopify admin. If you see a permissions error, make sure your staff account has the Manage and install apps and channels permission enabled under Shopify Admin → Settings → Users and permissions.
