If you're using Shopify, here’s a quick and easy health check to make sure your integration is fully connected and that all fulfillment information is flowing correctly between Luminous ↔ Shopify.
Earlier this year, we released Fulfillment Orders, which require a few updated Shopify app permissions (scopes). Some accounts may still be missing these, which can cause issues with tracking or fulfillment syncing.
✅ How to Check Your Connection in Luminous
In Luminous, go to Your Name → Integrations
Select your Shopify connection
Click the ✏️ icon
Click Test Credentials
If you see a message such as “Missing required scopes”, you’ll need to update your custom Shopify app.
🛠️ How to Fix Missing Scopes in Shopify
Follow these steps to update the permissions (scopes) on your Shopify app:
Step 1 — Go to Your Shopify Settings
Open Shopify
Go to Settings → Apps and Sales Channels
Click Develop Apps
Select the custom app you created during Luminous implementation
Step 2 — Update Your App’s Scopes
Go to the Configuration tab
Click Edit
Compare your app scopes with the required Luminous scopes listed here:
In Luminous, go to Help & Tutorials
Search “Shopify”
Scroll to Configuring Admin Scopes for the full list
4. In your Shopify app, enable any missing scopes—these are usually the fulfillment-related ones, such as:
read_orders
write_orders
read_fulfillments
write_fulfillments
write_assigned_fulfillment_orders
write_merchant_managed_fulfillment_orders
Etc.
Step 3 — Save & Refresh
Save your updated scopes in Shopify
Return to Luminous and refresh your browser
Re-run Test Credentials
You should now see: “All required scopes are available”
That’s it! Once these scopes are updated, fulfillment data will flow smoothly between Shopify and Luminous.
