  • Shopify account linking and reconnect actions now open correctly when VAT Engine is accessed through its configured public address.

  • Temporary account-link service interruptions now ask merchants to retry instead of incorrectly reporting that the authorization has expired.
  • After signing in, merchants return to the pending Shopify account-link confirmation instead of losing their progress.
  • Authorization destinations continue to be validated before the account-link flow can leave App Home.
3.6.304August 2, 2026

Shopify App Home Loads More Reliably

  • Release checks now detect a broader set of embedded-interface loading errors before an App Home update is approved.
  • Setup checks now ignore collapsed or hidden source and tax-default controls; development-store validation confirms the merchant-visible actions remain available.
