Shopify records the ID of the App that creates an order as the app_id. Brands want to be able to set the name associated with the id for easier readability and functionality in reporting. Some apps may be defined by the source_name while others are null.

This configuration allows Shopify brands to easily add or update their app_ids. If new apps are utilized by the brand, the new ID and name just need to be added to the configuration and will then process in the next scheduled data run.
