How to Configure a Shopify E-commerce

This article guides you through the setup process for a Shopify shop. The article will cover the two steps required to create a shop using our Shopify Integration:

Create Custom app in Shopify

When using our Shopify integration, we'll import your products through Shopify's API's. In order for us to access your products, you need to create a Custom shopify app. The Custom shopify app will work as our entrypoint into your shop. Here is how you create a Custom app in Shopify for us to use.

1. Log in to Shopify and click on "Settings"

9. Now, Shopify will reveal three different keys, you'll need when creating your shop in Feed:

  • Admin API access token

  • API key

  • API secret key

Note that Shopify will only reveal the Admin API access token once. If you loose the key, it can't be retrieved again. You can however uninstall the app and reinstalling it again to get a new Admin API access token.

Now it's time to use the Custom app created in the previous step. Insert Admin API access token, API key, and API secret key into their respective fields.

Choose the correct currency, language, and metric and click the "Create shop"-button.

Now, we'll attempt to connect to your shop using the Custom app you provided. Make sure your keys are correct in case any error is returned.
