# 🔗 Linking an additional store with a linking code

Peak PIM can manage several Shopify stores from one account. To add another store, you use a short linking code.

# Step-by-step

### 1. Generate a linking code

In Peak PIM, go to `Settings > Stores` and click `Generate linking code`. A short code appears.

### 2. Copy the code

Copy it to your clipboard.

### 3. Install Peak PIM on the second store

Open the [Peak PIM listing on the Shopify App Store](https://apps.shopify.com/peak-pim) from the second store and install the app.

### 4. Paste the linking code

When prompted, paste the linking code to connect that store to your existing Peak PIM account.

||| ⚠️ The linking code is temporary for your security. Generate it right before you need it. If it expires, just generate a new one.

Once the store is linked, Peak PIM matches its catalog against your existing data so items line up instead of duplicating.
