Manage stores
Switch to the right store, create another project, and find its settings.
Use the store-name menu to choose which store Runner should work on. Each store has its own tasks, storefront, and settings.
Entry path: Current store name at the top of the sidebar → store menu.
Before you start
- Confirm the current workspace and store before creating or removing anything.
- Keep a copy of an unsent request before switching stores.
- Your workspace plan controls how many stores you can create.
English callouts highlight the controls. Select the image to enlarge it.
Open this menu to choose a store or start Create Store. Check the name again after switching.
Store controls
| Control | What happens |
|---|---|
| Current store name | Opens the store menu. |
| Another store name | Opens that store and its tasks. |
| Create Store | Opens the creation dialog; a plan message can appear if you have reached the store limit. |
| Workspace Settings | Opens settings for the workspace, rather than the store. |
| Sidebar Settings | Opens settings for the current store. |
| Store General → Delete Store | Opens the removal confirmation. Review the named store before proceeding. |
Open an existing store
- Select the current store name at the top of the sidebar.
- Find the store you intend to work on.
- Select its name and wait for navigation to finish.
- Confirm the new store name in the sidebar.
- Open its current task or Storefront to check that you are in the right project before sending instructions.
If your account opens an empty workspace instead, use its creation prompt. A workspace with no stores has nothing to switch to yet.
Create another store
- Open the store-name menu and select Create Store.
- Choose the available store type. Use the Runner creation path for a new store, or Connect Shopify for an existing Shopify shop when offered.
- Enter the required Store Name and complete that path.
- Wait for Runner to open the project.
- Confirm the new name appears in the store menu. Creation does not publish the store.
Follow Create a Runner store or Connect Shopify for the full walkthrough.
Review a store deletion
- Switch to the store you intend to remove.
- Open sidebar Settings and the store’s General section.
- Find Delete Store and read the confirmation.
- Verify the store name and the listed consequences.
- Cancel if you need to keep the store. Enter the required store name and confirm only when you intend to delete it.
- After a confirmed deletion, check that the store is no longer available in the active store list.
Deletion is destructive. Use a different store from the menu if you only wanted to switch projects.
Troubleshooting
| What you see | What to do |
|---|---|
| Store list is loading | Wait before selecting or creating another store. |
| A store is missing | Confirm your workspace membership and the workspace you opened. Do not create a duplicate just because the list has not loaded. |
| Creation opens an upgrade path | Review the current public plans or ask the workspace owner about capacity. |
| Creation returned an error | Check whether a new store already appears before starting another attempt. |
| Store settings are unavailable | Confirm the selected store and your role. Ask a workspace owner or admin for access. |
| Renewal screen | Reactivate the workspace if authorized, or use another workspace you can access. |
