Connect Shopify
To connect to Shopify, you need a URL to the store and Admin API Access token. Follow the steps below to proceed.
Here's how
- Go to "Settings" > "Apps and sales channels" > "Develop apps".
- Click "Create app":
- Enter a name for the app and choose a developer who has rights to create apps in your.
- Go to "Configure Scopes for Admin API" and check read and/or write on all scopes (if you want to make it simple) but if you just want to specify the relevant ones, you can choose these:
Customers
Fulfillments
Inventory
Locations
Merchant_managed_fulfillment_orders
Orders
Products
Publications
Returns
Shopify_payments_accounts
Shopify_payments_payouts
Check both Read and Write if both are available for all Scopes above - Click "Save" (Once the permissions are set, the app can be installed).
- Click "Install app" at the top right and then the "install" button. (Now an Admin API Access Token has been created.)
- Click "Show token once" and copy the access token to a secure location on your computer. Note that it is only possible to view your access token once.
Sharespine needs this access token and your store's URL (ex: at the correct address: https://yourstore.myshopify.com/) to connect your systems.
