Shopify integration for a Retailer

1.    Go to Settings → Apps and sales channels:

2.    Press on the “Develop apps” button;

3.    Press “Allow custom app development”;

4.    Press “Allow custom app development” once again;

5.    Press “Create an app”;

6.    Type “StockShare” in the “App name” field and press “Create app”;

7.    Go to the “Configuration” tab and press “Configure” in the “Admin AP integration” section;

8.    Select the following permissions (you can use the filter textbox to find them quicker)

“Read”: “Customers”

“Read and write”: “Products”, “Orders”, “Inventory”, “Fulfillment services“, “Assigned fulfillment orders“, “Merchant-managed fulfillment orders“, “Third-party fulfillment orders“, “custom_fulfillment_services“

Make sure the selected permissions are exactly the same as in the screenshot: 

9.    Press “Save”;

10.    Press “Install app”;

11.    Press “Install”;

12.    Finally, your credentials will be generated which provide open API access to your store. Please keep them secure. Please note, the Admin API access token can be revealed only once. These credentials have to be provided to StockShare in order to finalize the app connection.

13.    Copy the API key, API Access Token, API Secret Key and paste them to the respective fields in your Apps Settings of StockShare account (go to Settings -> Apps). Shop URL should be extracted from the URL of your Shopify store (this is the one that ends with .myshopify.com, for example, “my-store.myshopify.com”).

14.    Press “Connect”.

Now, you should see a “Business Unit has been successfully connected to Shopify store via private app” message, which means the private app connection process is finalized.
