Shopify enforces IP allowlist rule for public apps

Shopify is enforcing a new IP allowlist rule for public apps sold on its App Store, with the first deadline having passed on November 12, 2026, for apps using bulk operations. Any public app not configured with an IP allowlist by this date will have its bulk operations blocked. A second deadline on November 20, 2026, will affect all other public apps, leading to delisting from the App Store and preventing new installations. While custom and merchant-built apps are exempt, non-compliant public apps face a complete Admin API access cutoff on April 1, 2027. AI

IMPACT This change impacts developers building apps on the Shopify platform, requiring them to implement IP allowlisting for security.

RANK_REASON This is a policy change by a platform (Shopify) affecting developers using its services, not a core AI release or research.
