Step 1: Get a valid Shopify order ID

For the One-time to subscription Quick Action only

If you’re using the One-time to Subscription Quick Action, you’ll need to get a valid Shopify Order ID for an order that contains an eligible one-time product for testing.

1. In your Shopify admin, open any one-time order that does not contain a subscription.

2. Look at the order URL in your browser. The Shopify order ID is the number at the end of the URL.

   • Example: https://admin.shopify.com/store/your-store/orders/1234567890

   • In this example, 1234567890 is the order ID you need.

3. Copy this order ID—you'll use it in Step 4.

4. On the same order page, copy the customer's email address. You'll use this to log in as the customer in the next step.

Step 2: Log in as the customer using Magic Login

1. In the left-hand menu of your Skio Dashboard, go to Customer Management.

2. Search for the customer using the email address you copied in Step 1.

3. Click on Magic Login next to the customer's name.

4. Confirm you're now viewing your storefront as this customer.

Step 3: Test the quick action URL

1. Once logged in as the customer, paste your Quick Action URL into your browser.

2. Replace the event.orderPlatform variable in the URL with the Shopify order ID from Step 1.

   • Example URL format:
     https://yourstore.com/a/account/quick-action-v3?orderPlatformId=ORDERIDGOESHERE&stackId=12867d4f-e5a3-45a4-b830-0a31a5617eb1

   • Updated URL:
     https://yourstore.com/a/account/quick-action-v3?orderPlatformId=1234567890&stackId=12867d4f-e5a3-45a4-b830-0a31a5617eb1

3. Press Enter. The quick action should now load and display the expected action (e.g., product swap, reactivation, upsell).

What to check when testing

When testing your quick action link, verify the following:

• No unsubstituted variables: Ensure the URL doesn't contain placeholders like {{ person.skio_qaToken|default:'' }} or /{{ person.skio_nextBillingActiveSubscriptionId|default:'' }}/. All variables should be replaced with actual values.

• Correct subscription state: If you're testing a reactivation quick action, the subscription should be canceled. If you're testing a product swap, the subscription must contain the variant you're swapping from.

• Customer session: The quick action must be accessed while logged in as the correct customer. Use Magic Login from your Skio Dashboard to ensure you're in the right session.

• Incognito mode: Test in a new incognito or private browsing window to avoid cached data interfering with the test.

• Preview feature: Use the Preview feature in the Quick Actions tool within your Skio Dashboard to see how the action will appear before sending it live.
