Shopify API Chrome Extension: Your Browser-Based GraphQL Interface

The Problem

As a Shopify developer, I’ve lost count of the times I’ve needed to run just a couple of quick queries—to check something, fix something, or whatever. And honestly, it’s always a tedious process.

You’re stuck either installing a custom app just to get a token to query the API (which can take a good 10 minutes with all the scope setup) or installing the GraphiQL app on the store (which also requires app install permissions and scope setup).

That’s why I finally built a GraphQL client right into your browser. It leverages your existing authenticated session to run GraphQL queries without any of that tedious overhead.

Key Features & Benefits

Instant API Access: Access the Shopify API for any store you have permissions for, directly from your browser.
Integrated Documentation: Explore the complete Shopify GraphQL schema within the extension.
Schema Validation: Real-time validation helps you catch errors before they become problems.
Query History & Favorites: Easily manage and reuse your frequently used queries.
