Function Run Logs Automatically Available in Dev Dashboard Based on Access Scopes
Request the scopes your app needs during installation so that function run logs appear automatically in the Dev Dashboard.
Request the necessary access scopes during app installation, including any protected customer data scopes, so that function run logs appear automatically in the Dev Dashboard.
Summary
Shopify has removed the need for merchants to share function run logs manually; the logs are now automatically visible in the Dev Dashboard whenever your app has the required access scopes. The visibility of a log is determined by the scopes needed to read the fields referenced in the function’s input query via the GraphQL Admin API. If your app has those scopes, the run details appear without any additional merchant action. To ensure visibility, request the necessary scopes during installation or authentication, including protected customer data scopes for customer fields. For temporary or debugging access, you can request optional scopes that merchants can grant or revoke without reinstalling the app. The required scopes are defined by the function’s input query, so review the query to determine which scopes are needed. Once the scopes are granted, the logs will automatically show the next time you view them in the Dev Dashboard.
