Hello @ColtraneNadler. Can you try updating to the latest version of the CLI and re-authing? If you are still seeing this issue could you please share the output of running the app dev command with the --verbose flag.

Also, are the stores in question dev stores you created via the developer dashboard, or were they created in the Partners Dashboard?

[ColtraneNadler]

Updated to latest version, and created the store from the developer dashboard. @jantnovi

Bumping this @jantnovi

[ashwinnair26]

Same issue.

[bigicoin]

Similar issue, started occurring after updating to latest version of cli, because my old version stopped working (it didn't let me continue to use it and forced me to update):

shopify app dev

I have verified that my test store subdomain works (it is password protected because it is test), and I have logged in correctly to my account.

[ashwinnair26]

Solved this by clearing the cookies in the inspect > application tab. Once i logged in the dev stores had disappeared. Created a new store and its working fine now.

this does not work... as the data is fetched from their api not stored in system.

[timminkov]

Also experiencing the same issue.

[Basem1166]

Temporary fix that worked for me is to get added as a store staff to the store , it will show up in dev dashboard

[andrejpavlovic]

Removing the .shopify folder seemed to help in my case before running shopify app dev again - more specifically .shopify/project.json file.
