Recent Updates to the ShipperHQ App in BigCommerce
Overview
When BigCommerce prompts you to update or reauthorize the ShipperHQ app, it can raise questions about safety, version changes, and whether release notes are available. These prompts typically relate to permission updates required by BigCommerce and are safe to accept.
Why You Are Seeing Update Prompts
BigCommerce occasionally requires apps to request updated permissions or agreements. When this occurs, you may see a prompt asking you to review or accept updated ShipperHQ app permissions.
These updates ensure continued functionality between BigCommerce and ShipperHQ and often relate to new platform requirements or enhancements to specific features.
Is It Safe to Accept the Update?
Yes. It is completely safe to accept the ShipperHQ app update or agreement.
If you decline the prompt, you may temporarily lose access to your ShipperHQ Dashboard within BigCommerce until the updated permissions are accepted.
What the Update Applies To
The most recent permissions prompt relates specifically to updates for the Product Page Calculator feature within ShipperHQ. Accepting the agreement ensures this feature continues to function properly.
There are no known risks associated with accepting the update, and testing is not required before applying it.
