Shopify Credential - Online Store

What is a Shopify Credential

Section titled “What is a Shopify Credential”

A Shopify credential allows your workflows to connect with your Shopify store to manage products, orders, customers, inventory, and all your online store operations. Shopify uses OAuth authentication, which means the connection is established securely without the need to manually enter API keys.

How the OAuth Connection Works

Section titled “How the OAuth Connection Works”

The Shopify integration uses the OAuth 2.0 protocol, a secure authorization standard. This means:

  1. You do not need to generate or copy API keys manually
  2. Authorization is done directly from your Shopify admin panel
  3. Permissions are granted in a granular and transparent way
  4. You can revoke access at any time from Shopify
