Installation Guide
Connect StreamCart to Shopify
Find StreamCart in the App Store
Go to the Shopify App Store and search for "StreamCart". Click the app listing to open it.
Click "Add app" and authorize
Click "Add app". Shopify will prompt you to authorize the required permissions. Click "Install app" to confirm.
Product catalog syncs automatically
StreamCart reads your Shopify product catalog via the Admin API. No manual import needed.
Verify the sync
Open the StreamCart dashboard, navigate to Products, and confirm your products appear.
Create widgets and associate videos
In the dashboard, create a widget, upload or link your videos, and map them to products.
Widgets appear automatically
No code needed. StreamCart injects the embed script into your storefront automatically.
Theme-specific Notes
Shopify 2.0 themes
Go to Online Store → Customize → Add section → StreamCart. The app block will appear in the section picker, giving you full drag-and-drop placement control.
Vintage / non-2.0 themes
The app automatically injects the embed script into your theme.liquid file before </head>. No manual edits are needed.
If your theme restricts script injection, use the manual snippet below.
Manual Installation
Add the embed script manually
Copy your Project ID from the StreamCart dashboard under Settings → Project. Paste the snippet below before </head> in your theme.liquid.
Troubleshooting
Common issues and fixes
Products are not syncing
Ensure StreamCart has the read_products scope. Go to your Shopify Partners dashboard → App → Permissions and confirm. Re-install the app if permissions were recently updated.
Widget does not appear on product pages
Check that your theme is Shopify 2.0. For vintage themes, verify that theme.liquid was not customized to block third-party scripts. Clear your browser cache.
App was installed but dashboard shows no store
Disconnect and reconnect the app from Settings → Integrations → Shopify in the StreamCart dashboard. This re-establishes the OAuth token.
