How To Create Preview Links Directly to The Pages on Unpublished Shopify Themes
You want to share a preview link of a page (which could be a page, product, article, or blog) from an unpublished Shopify theme. The usual way to do this is to share the preview link of that theme. After the other person goes to this link, they can then access the page you want to show to them. This process can be a bit cumbersome. You can directly share the preview link of that page from an unpublished Shopify theme with another person by following these steps.
- From your Shopify admin, go to Sales channels > Online Store > Themes.
- Find the theme you want to preview, click on the 3 dots icon, hover on the Preview link, then right-click on this link and choose Copy Link Address.
- Now you have a preview link of this theme. Please pay attention to the preview_theme_id parameter. Let’s copy this parameter.
Eg: The preview link is https://shopify-domain.myshopify.com/?_ab=0&_bt=aaaaaaaaaa&_fd=0&_sc=1&key=bbbbbbbbbb&preview_theme_id=123456789.
- Now add it at the end of any page URL you want to share.
Eg:
The URL is https://shopify-domain.myshopify.com/pages/contact
The preview link: https://shopify-domain.myshopify.com/pages/contact?preview_theme_id=123456789
When using this preview link, the person will be taken directly to this page with the interface of the unpublished theme.
I hope this guide is helpful to you.
