Getting Started with a Shopify Integration
For Inventory Source to integrate with your Shopify store, you must set up/install a Custom app on your store's admin page.
If your integration is currently in Onboarding, it will be listed as a Pending Integration. To complete Step 3 (Connect Sales Channel) of the setup for your pending integration, you will be able to see information on installing the Inventory Source Custom app in Shopify. This is required to complete the onboarding for your integration.
To integrate our service with your Shopify store, we need to create and install a "Custom app." For this, we would like access to the App section of your Shopify store's admin. You can give us access in one of two ways: by providing a Collaborator Access or creating a staff account, or follow the below steps to create and install the custom app on your own and send us the token.
