Want to streamline your Shopify store management? With the power of integration, you can bring your Shopify operations into the CRM, making it easier to track orders, manage products, and engage with customers—all from one centralised platform. This guide outlines the steps required to connect your Shopify store, enabling you to manage it directly from within the CRM. The integration process involves two main steps:
Create a Custom App in Your Shopify Store.
Connect Shopify to Your Account.
Before setting up the integration, you must create a custom app in your Shopify store.
To start, log in to your Shopify store and navigate to the settings section.
Click on "Apps and sales channels" in your dashboard.
Click on "Develop apps" at the top of the screen.
Click on "Allow custom app development." If already enabled, proceed to create the app.
You may see a warning about creating custom apps. Read and acknowledge it to continue.
Click on “Create an app.”
Enter a name for the app (e.g., "Marvel's App"), select your email under App Developer, and click on “Create app.”
After creating the app, configure Admin API integration.
Enable "read_orders" access under “Orders.”
Enable "read_products" access under “Products.”
Save the app by clicking "Save" at the top right.
Click on "Install app" and confirm the installation.
Click on "Install" and confirm the installation.
After installation, find the "Admin API access token" under API credentials and click "Reveal token once" to access it.
Copy the "Admin API access token" by clicking the clipboard icon.
Go to the Settings > Integration area of your CRM and click on the "Connect" tab to integrate your Shopify store.
Paste the "Admin API access token," enter the "Name of your Shopify store," and click "Connect."
Toggle on the elements you wish to sync between Shopify and the CRM, such as orders or customer data.
Check all the available checkboxes to ensure complete synchronization of data between your Shopify store and CRM.
Your Shopify integration is now complete! You can manage the store using various advanced features in the CRM.
This is what a fully integrated Shopify account looks like.
Upon entering the Access token and Shopify store name, if the store is already integrated, the user will be presented with the option to remove the existing integration and re-integrate the store to the desired location.
Here we can learn how you can manage the store using the advanced feature.
With workflow triggers, we can set the system to perform actions like sending offers to customers who abandon their checkout.
Establish specific conditions for the system to execute workflows.
Utilize shopping cart elements to build tailored emails.
That’s it! By integrating Shopify with your CRM, you’ve unlocked a powerful tool for managing your store efficiently and delivering an exceptional customer experience. From syncing orders to automating workflows, the possibilities are endless.
