I am developing an app for BigCommerce and currently have a specific store name in my redirect URI. When a user installs the app, they are redirected to this predefined store. However, I want to make my app support any store where it is installed and dynamically redirect the user to their respective store after installation.

Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

Specifying a fixed redirect_uri with a hardcoded store name.
The problem is that this approach doesn’t work for multiple stores.

How can I dynamically determine the store name or URL and ensure the user is redirected back to their specific store after installation?

Any code examples or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

  1. To redirect users to their specific store after installation, use the store_hash provided in the OAuth callback. After the user installs the app and grants permissions, BigCommerce returns the store_hash in the callback. You can then use to construct the store’s URL and redirect the user to their specific store’s dashboard or any other page, instead of relying on a hardcoded store name.

  2. namespace AppHttpMiddleware;

    use Closure;

    class BigCommerceCallbackHandler
    {
    public function handle($request, Closure $next)
    {
    if ($request->has(‘context’)) {
    $context = $request->get(‘context’); // e.g., "stores/abc123"
    $storeHash = explode(‘/’, $context)[1]; // Extract "abc123"
    $request->merge([‘store_hash’ => $storeHash]);
    }

        return $next($request);
    }
    

    }
