This Actor is designed to work with limited permissions. It only reads input and writes to its default dataset; it does not access other user data or require full account access.

1. Open your Actor on the Apify platform.
2. Go to the Source tab (or Settings).
3. Click Review permissions (or open Settings → Permissions).
4. Select Limited permissions and save.

Using limited permissions improves trust and can improve your Actor's quality score in the Store.

• Some Shopify stores may use custom themes or protections that limit extractable data.
• Very large catalogs may require higher Apify resource limits or multiple runs.
• Changes to Shopify’s frontend or theme structures may require actor updates.
