Im trying to create a new API connection in Google Cloud, one of the required fields is App ID. Can someone help me understand what the app id should be? No matter what try i’m getting error 'appid' is not a valid connection property.

In context here in the a screenshot: enter image description here

I have tried:

  • the GCP project id
  • the application name in Shopify (the API i’m connecting to)
  • making up a name
  • the Shopify ClientID (the counterpart to the Client Secret)

thanks in advance!

  1. Everyone who has an account with google cloud has a unique "AppID". This is used to identify every user using this ID. You can find yours on your profile. Thank you

  2. If you are seeing the error ‘appid’ is not a valid connection property, it means that you are trying to connect to a server that does not accept the App ID as a valid authentication method. To resolve this issue, you can try one of the following solutions:

    • If the server is using an app ID, ensure that you are using the
      correct app ID and that the app ID is configured correctly. The app
      id is the GCP project number, the numerical project number, not the
      project id. This is seen in the console dashboard.
    • Use a different authentication method (e.g. username and password,
      OAuth, etc.).
    • Check the server’s settings to ensure that the App ID is enabled as
      an authentication method.

    Refer to this SO1, SO2 for how to find the APP ID
