{% hint style="info" %}
Installing the app only grants Hypercape the permissions you configured. This does not complete the connection yet — you will finish connecting on the Hypercape BIZ Setup page in Step 14. You do not need to open or use the app itself.
{% endhint %}

#### 12. Go to Settings

<figure><img src="https://files.gitbook.com/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FKmVnLoHDk5ZkU3shqZqa%2Fuploads%2FOAXnDOlMKgMVwR65cL3B%2F12-go-to-settings.png?alt=media&#x26;token=f5da8ac2-cf54-48b8-b94f-325a9e9fb4e7" alt="Go to app Settings"><figcaption><p>Navigate to the "Settings" tab in the left sidebar.</p></figcaption></figure>

Click the copy icon next to each field to copy these values.</p></figcaption></figure>

{% hint style="info" %}
These two values are what actually connect your store to Hypercape — the app itself is not used after this point.
{% endhint %}

#### 14. Enter Your Credentials

<figure><img src="https://3720355098-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FKmVnLoHDk5ZkU3shqZqa%2Fuploads%2FpS0OmQjH1us48adpVLjt%2F14-enter-credentials.png?alt=media&#x26;token=1c05ab0e-bc75-45ef-9a78-f92313ca9ef2" alt="Enter Shopify credentials in Hypercape BIZ"><figcaption><p>Return to the Hypercape BIZ "Setup" page. Paste your copied Client ID and Client Secret into the corresponding fields. Enter your Shopify store URL (the part before <code>.myshopify.com</code>).
