Can I manually set Shopify permissions for Mechanic?
Only implicitly. Mechanic will only ever request Shopify permissions based on what a task does during preview, so that's your chance to fully demonstrate what your task intends to do.
Task previews are a really important part of how Mechanic works, so make sure you understand and are using them to the fullest.
We highly recommend you stick with the task preview approach. But if you get stuck we have now introduced a permissions tag that allows you to explicitly state the permissions your task requires.
Having trouble getting your permissions and previews to line up? Try asking in our community Slack workspace. Sharing your task code there is a good way to get suggestions about how to move forward. :)
