Open the install link we send you, approve the permissions, and GoBolt opens inside your Shopify admin.
Get your install link
GoBolt is not in the Shopify App Store, so there is nothing to search for there. Email [email protected] with your store's .myshopify.com address and we send you an install link for that store. You can also choose Shopify at gobolt.app/get-started. That button writes to us too.
Install
Open the install link while you are signed in to the Shopify admin for that store.
Read the permissions Shopify shows. GoBolt asks to work with your products, orders, customers, discounts, pages, policies and theme.
Select Install.
Shopify sends you back to GoBolt, which opens inside your Shopify admin.
What happens next
GoBolt starts reading your store as soon as it is installed. A short welcome plays, and then setup takes you through four steps: Storefront chat, Product highlights, Messages and Briefing. You can skip any of them. See Set up GoBolt in four steps.
The Storefront chat step is the one that puts Bolt on your storefront. Shopify does not let GoBolt change your theme for you, so setup opens Shopify's theme editor, where you switch on GoBolt Chat Widget and select Save. Shopify keeps this switch per theme. If you change themes later, switch it on again in the new theme.
Installing on its own shows shoppers nothing, and your theme's design does not change. After you switch the chat on, Bolt keeps it hidden until it has finished reading your store.
