Outage in Narvar

Initial Notice – Under Investigation: Returns u0026 Exchange app permission failures

Resolved Minor
September 02, 2026 - Started 13 days ago - Lasted about 6 hours

Incident Report

Summary AI Generated

Narvar's Returns & Exchanges app for Shopify experienced a 6.2-hour outage where permission errors blocked return processing, caused by updates to Shopify's app scope permissions. The engineering team identified the root cause and determined that resolution required manual action from store administrators to reauthorize the app via a banner prompt within the Shopify Admin interface. Full functionality was restored once affected stores completed the permission update.

We are currently experiencing an issue with the Returns u0026 Exchanges app where permission errors are preventing returns from being successfully processed. Our engineering team is actively investigating the root cause and working diligently to restore full functionality. We apologize for any disruption this may cause and will provide further updates as soon as more information becomes available.
