Queek apps
Build an app merchants install from their dashboard. Embedded pages, signed webhooks, scoped Merchant API access and storefront blocks, running on your own infrastructure.
A Queek app is a web application a merchant opens from their dashboard. You host it. Queek handles the install lifecycle, hands you signed credentials, and gives the app scoped access to the Merchant API.
An app can:
- serve an embedded page inside the merchant dashboard;
- accept signed install, uninstall and settings handoffs;
- subscribe to webhooks for orders, products, customers, stock and translations;
- call the Merchant API with an installation token limited to the scopes the merchant granted;
- add storefront blocks and serve read-only data to the storefront through a signed proxy;
- add dashboard blocks, actions and print layouts to order and product pages.
Limits to know before you design
| Limit | Detail |
|---|---|
| Scopes | An installation can call only the Merchant API operations its granted scopes cover. App management, API keys, roles, users, employees and point of sale are never grantable. |
| Storefront proxy | Serves GET only. |
| Extensions | Targets and counts are bounded: see the manifest reference. |
| Capabilities | Some things apps cannot do yet, such as payment gateways, carrier rates or recurring billing, and a few that Queek deliberately does not offer. Check capabilities before you commit to a design. |
| Review | Every app is reviewed before it is listed publicly, and updates that add a sensitive capability are reviewed again. Plan a screencast: see App review and distribution. |
The path from idea to listing
- Check capabilities. Confirm the platform supports your use case, and note any limit or workaround.
- Build an app. Scaffold, run on a dev store, host, deploy and submit.
- Configure the manifest. Scopes, webhook topics, extensions.
- Use the SDK. Install handlers, session verification, webhooks and the typed Merchant API client.
- Build the embedded page. The bridge messages, the handshake timings, frame sizing and where dialogs go.
- Get reviewed. Submit with a screencast, pass the automated checks and go live in the app store.
