Affected APIs[App Bridge](https://shopify.dev/changelog?api_type=app-bridge)

The new [App Bridge Reviews API](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/app-bridge-library/apis/reviews) allows Shopify apps to request reviews directly within the Shopify admin interface.

* **Better merchant experience:** Leave reviews directly in the Shopify admin with in-context prompts vs. multi-step App Store redirects.
* **No customization required**: The component has already been designed—you control when the review modal is shown to merchants ([following our guidelines](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/app-bridge-library/apis/reviews#best-practices)).
* **Support callouts:** The [“Get Support” button](https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/launch/distribution/support-your-customers) will also be surfaced in the review modal, giving merchants with issues a direct path to resolution as an alternative to leaving a review.

Use development stores to test the Reviews API, which bypasses the rate limits and restrictions. [Read more](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/app-bridge-library/apis/reviews) about testing and implementing the Reviews API.
