The Shopify integration is a unique way to integrate an online store on Shopify to your CRM. This integration can be used to track sales and create automated responses for orders placed or abandoned carts.
In this article, I’ll show you how to integrate Shopify with your platform.
The Shopify integration requires a private app password, and Shopify store name. If you haven’t already done so, create a Shopify account.
To start, login to Shopify, navigate to your Dashboard, and click Apps in the left menu.
On the Apps page, scroll down, and then click Manage Private Apps.
If you already have an App set up, it will appear in the Private Apps Dashboard.
However, if you don’t have an app set up, then you’ll need to enable private app development. Click the Enable private app development button.
On the next page, mark the checkboxes, and then click the enable private app development button again.
After private app development is enabled, click Create private app on the page that appears.
You will need to name your private app and provide an emergency developer email.
For proper integration, you will also need to provide at least “Read” access permission for Products and Orders specifically. You can also select “Read and write.”
After making these changes, click Save to create the app.
The admin API credentials will be created, which we’ll need to integrate it with your CRM. On the Shopify page, copy your App password.
And then switch over to your platform.
Click Settings on the left menu and then click Integrations from the Settings menu.
Under the Shopify icon, click the Connect button.
In the pop-up, paste your Private app password and enter your Shopify store’s name in the next field.
Lastly, click Connect.
You will now see that your store is connected on the Integrations page.
Congratulations - your Shopify integration is complete and you’re ready to start selling!
