# Collaborator Access

When you need help from the Sesami support team with your store setup, we may request [**Collaborator Access**](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/your-account/staff-accounts/collaborator-accounts) to your Shopify account. This is a secure, Shopify-native way to grant temporary access without sharing your login credentials.

## What is Collaborator Access?

Collaborator Access is a Shopify feature that allows an app partner or agency to access your Shopify admin with specific permissions you control. It's the recommended way for Sesami's team to assist with:

* Theme installation and configuration
* Troubleshooting booking issues
* Custom setup and integrations
* White-glove setup services

## How It Works

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

#### Sesami sends a collaborator request

When you contact us for support that requires admin access, our team will send a collaborator request to your store using your Shopify store URL.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### You receive and review the request

You'll see the request in your Shopify admin. Go to:

**Shopify Admin > Settings >** [**Users**](https://admin.shopify.com/settings/organization-account)

Click the **Requests** tab to see pending collaborator requests.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Review and adjust permissions

Before accepting:

1. Click the collaborator request from Sesami
2. Review the requested permissions in the [**Roles**](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/your-account/users/roles/manage-roles) section
3. Adjust permissions if needed — you control exactly what the collaborator can access
   {% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Accept the request

Click **Accept request** to grant access. You can revoke access at any time from the same page.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

{% hint style="info" %}
Collaborator access does not count toward your Shopify staff limit and can be removed at any time.
{% endhint %}

## Revoking Access

When the support work is complete, you can remove collaborator access:

1. Go to **Shopify Admin > Settings > Users**
2. Find the collaborator account
3. Click **Remove** to revoke access

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.sesami.co/apps-integrations/shopify/collaborator-access.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
