Setup and connection
How is Atlios different from Shopify's built-in product validation?
How is Atlios different from Shopify's built-in product validation?
Shopify validates basic fields at save time. Atlios runs broader catalog
quality checks across products, variants, images, cross-product conflicts,
and rendered storefront pages, then groups findings into reviewable issues
with severity and history.
Can I connect more than one Shopify store?
Can I connect more than one Shopify store?
Yes. Each store is connected separately and shows up as its own workspace in
Atlios. Scans, issues, and suppressions are tracked per store.
What Shopify permissions does Atlios need?
What Shopify permissions does Atlios need?
Atlios requests read access to products, inventory, locations, online store
navigation, and metaobjects. These scopes cover product, variant, and image
metadata used by scans and storefront verification. Shopify shows the exact
scopes on the install screen before you approve.
Do I need a paid Shopify plan?
Do I need a paid Shopify plan?
Atlios works with the standard Shopify plans that allow third-party app
installation. Check the install prerequisites in your Shopify admin if the
install step is blocked.
Scans and issues
How long does a scan take?
How long does a scan take?
Scan time depends on catalog size and the checks enabled. Small catalogs
typically finish in minutes; larger catalogs can take longer. The scan runs
in the background; you do not need to keep the tab open.
Will Atlios change my catalog without permission?
Will Atlios change my catalog without permission?
No. Atlios only writes changes when you apply a guided fix and confirm the
proposed change. Read-only checks never modify product data.
Can I schedule scans?
Can I schedule scans?
Atlios runs a daily product scan automatically for every connected store
once metadata sync has completed at least once. You can also trigger a
manual scan from the store workspace at any time.
What is the difference between fixing and suppressing?
What is the difference between fixing and suppressing?
Fixing changes the underlying product or variant data. Suppression marks an
issue as an intentional exception so it stops appearing in future review
cycles. See suppressions for details.
Data and accounts
Where is my catalog data stored?
Where is my catalog data stored?
Atlios stores metadata required to run scans and track issue history.
Catalog data remains in Shopify; Atlios reads from Shopify on each scan.
What happens if I uninstall Atlios from Shopify?
What happens if I uninstall Atlios from Shopify?
Uninstalling revokes Atlios’s access to the store. Scan history and issue
records can be retained or deleted based on your workspace settings. Contact
support if you need data removed immediately.
Can I invite teammates?
Can I invite teammates?
Yes. Owners can invite teammates and assign roles. Admins can run catalog
work, but only owners can manage members, billing, and store connections.
See user roles for the full breakdown.
