Shopify Theme Access
Secure, scoped theme access for developers without creating staff accounts
Official site →Shopify Theme Access lets you grant developers scoped, revocable access to your theme code without burning a staff account slot. Send a token link instead of creating, permissioning, and later remembering to revoke a full staff account. Most useful for brands that work with external devs or freelancers, especially on Grow or Advanced plans where staff slots are capped.
What Shopify Theme Access does for Shopify brands
- Scoped token links replace staff account creation, permissioning & revocation
- Frees staff slots on Grow (5) & Advanced (15) plans, avoids plan upgrade delta
- Time-boxed dev access reduces risk of forgotten accounts lingering post-project
