App Proxy

App Proxy lets your app expose a path under the shop's own storefront domain — for example https://{shopdomain}.myshoplaza.com/apps/pay — and have Shoplazza forward matching requests to your app's backend for processing.

Why use it​

Without App Proxy, any storefront-facing endpoint your app serves has to live on your own domain: customers leave the shop's domain to reach it, and you have to handle cross-origin requests yourself. With App Proxy, the request path stays under the shop's domain and Shoplazza transparently forwards it to your backend.

Required scope​

Creating and managing app proxies requires the read_app_proxy / write_app_proxy access scope.

Configuration fields​

An app proxy rule has three configurable fields:

FieldDescription
real_pathThe path under the shop's storefront that triggers the proxy. For example, use pay when the target path is apps/pay.
proxy_urlThe URL of your application that processes the forwarded request, for example http://www.example.com.
change_originWhether Shoplazza rewrites the forwarded request's Host header to match the proxy target.

Create an app proxy​

bash
curl -X POST \
https://{shopdomain}.myshoplaza.com/openapi/2026-07/app-proxies \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'Access-Token: {token}' \
-d '{
"real_path": "pay",
"proxy_url": "http://www.example.com",
"change_origin": false
}'

Once created, a request to https://{shopdomain}.myshoplaza.com/apps/pay is forwarded to http://www.example.com.
