Getting started with Shopify

Overview

Shopify is an e-commerce platform for managing products, online sales, and more. Pipe17 can sync Orders, Products and Inventory with Shopify.

Requirements

In order to install the necessary Apps for the Shopify Integration to work, you will need to have Staff Owner Access, OR the ability to install Apps on the store. If you do not have these permissions, you will be unable to establish a connection. You can read more about staff permissions on Shopify's help documentation.

Below, usual setup for when Shopify is considered strictly as a selling channe; meaning that it will work only as an order source; fulfillment may be source from a external 3PL or may also be extracted from Shopify itself. Same goes for inventory. However, products are usually sourced from Shopify itself to create in P17 and send elsewhere. 

On the other hand, another usual setup is when Shopify works as a sort of fulfillment channel (whenever it is connected to an actual fulfillment source outside P17) and therefore order source is elsewhere; like another selling channel or 3PL. Here, inventory is sourced from Shopify and products from the ERP.
