Shopify

Preparing your Shopify connection

Decide which order details matter and which access is required before connecting your store.

Start with service decisions

List the information your team checks when responding: order status, items, customer identity, and available shipping details.

Apply least privilege

Grant only the access required for the confirmed scope. The AI agent should remain read-only whenever an action is not explicitly available and controlled.

Review the context

Test representative orders, including an incomplete or ambiguous case. Context should improve the answer without replacing human review when a sensitive decision is needed.

Before launch

Confirm who may connect the store, who reviews access, and how the team reports missing or unexpected data.

Steps in the application

  1. Check with an administrator that the Shopify integration is enabled for the account.
  2. Follow the offered installation and authorization steps for the relevant store.
  3. Check the connection and look up a demonstration order belonging to the correct customer.
  4. Test a tracking question and human handoff; do not request order writes in this workflow.

Visible options depend on role, enabled features and plan. If an option is missing, ask an administrator to check account entitlements.
