Connecting Shopify makes your store a live data source in Retailgrid. Your products and sales history sync in automatically, and Retailgrid keeps them current without CSV uploads. Set it up once from Settings → Integrations.

​
What syncs

Your own data - product names, categories, and anything you edit in the grid - is never overwritten. Shopify is a source, not the owner of your grids.

​
Connect a store

  1. Open the gear (Settings) icon in the left sidebar, then Integrations.
  2. On the Shopify card, start the connection and install the Retailgrid app for your store.
  3. Authorize the access Retailgrid requests to read your products and orders.
  4. The card switches from Not connected to connected, and the first import begins.
The first import runs as a job - track it in Runs and confirm the data lands on the Datasets page.

​
Automatic refresh

After the first import, you don’t re-import by hand:
  • Scheduled sync keeps products and transactions current on a regular cadence.
  • Event-driven sync picks up changes as they happen in Shopify - product edits and new orders - so the data in Retailgrid tracks your store.
Synced data follows the same incremental behavior as the rest of Retailgrid: only what changed is updated, not the whole store every time.

​
Manage the connection

From the Shopify card on the Integrations tab you can:
  • Reconnect - re-authorize if access expired or you moved to a different store.
  • Disconnect - stop syncing. Data already imported stays in your datasets; it simply stops refreshing from Shopify.

​
Verify the data

Open the Datasets page. Your Products and Transactions datasets show Origin: Shopify, with the row count and last-updated time from the most recent sync.
