Shopify Setup Guide legacy

Follow our setup guide to connect Shopify to Fivetran.

This setup guide is applicable only for Shopify connections created before October 7, 2022.

Prerequisites

To connect your Shopify account to Fivetran, you need:

Access to a Shopify account
A shop and shop name
Authenticated access scopes for Shopify's Admin API. For more information, see Shopify's documentation.
You need to log in to your Shopify account before starting the setup process, if creating a connection via API.

Only use an HTTPS URL with TLS version 1.2 or above.

In the connection setup form, enter your Destination schema name.
Enter your Shop name.
You can find your shop name immediately before .myshopify.com in your Shopify URL. For example, if your URL is shopname.myshopify.com, then your shop name is shopname.
Click Authorize. You will be redirected to Shopify's login page.
Log in to your Shopify account. You will be redirected to the Shopify admin UI, which will prompt you to install the Fivetran app.
Click Install unlisted app. This will install the Fivetran app with the required access scopes. You will be redirected to the Fivetran connection setup form. The Authentication Succeeded text displayed beside the Re-Authorize Connection button means the installation has succeeded.
In the Historical Sync Time Frame drop-down menu, select the amount of historical data you want to include in your initial sync:
- Select Sync all historical data to sync all available historical data from your source.
- Select Sync data from selected date and choose a date in the Historical Sync Start Date field to limit the historical data synced for certain tables. This speeds up the initial sync. For a list of affected tables, see our Shopify connector historical sync time frame documentation.
Click Save & Test. Fivetran will take it from here and sync your data from your Shopify account.
