@adventuretocode I'm assuming you're asking what the SHOP parameter is used for, Shopify uses this for authentication. If you do not have this parameter, Shopify does not know which shop to generate the OAuth token for. If you are trying to develop an app for multiple shops this parameter must be dynamically retrieved from the request object.

no please refer the .env file.

@adventuretocode The template obtains the shop parameter from the incoming request and does not use a .env file.

What code is looking for a SHOP environment variable?
