Connect your **Shopify** store so your site shows your real products — catalog, collections,
prices and availability — and sends buyers to your own Shopify checkout. Inventory, orders,
payments and fulfilment stay in Shopify; your site becomes its storefront.

## Setup

In **Settings → Connectors → Shopify**:

| Field | What to enter |
| --- | --- |
| **Store domain** | Your permanent `.myshopify.com` domain (for example `your-store.myshopify.com`), not your custom domain. Find it in the Shopify admin under **Settings → Domains**. |
| **Storefront API access token** | The public Storefront API token from a custom app in your store (see below). |
| **API version (optional)** | A Storefront API version such as `2026-01`. Leave it blank to use a recent stable version. |

To get the Storefront token:

1. In the Shopify admin, open **Settings → Apps and sales channels → Develop apps** and create an
   app (or open one you already have).
2. Configure its **Storefront API** access: grant reading product listings, plus the cart
   permissions if you want to sell from the site.
3. Install the app, then copy the **Storefront API access token** from its API credentials.

> **Caution**
>
> The Storefront token is **public by design** — it only reads your catalog and builds carts, and it
> ends up in your site's code. Never paste an **Admin API** token (it starts with `shpat_`): that one
> reads your orders and customers and must never reach a website.

## Example prompts

Describe it in chat — no special syntax needed:

- *"show my products with a buy button that goes to Shopify checkout"*
- *"add a page for my Summer collection"*
- *"build a product page with photos, variants and an Add to cart button"*
- *"add a search box that searches my Shopify catalog"*

## Use cases

- A **custom storefront** for a store that already runs on Shopify.
- **Featured products** or a collection on a landing page.
- A **product page** that sends buyers to your Shopify checkout.

## Things worth knowing

- **Checkout happens on Shopify.** The site builds the cart and sends the buyer to your Shopify
  checkout, so payments, taxes and shipping follow your Shopify settings. This is separate from
  ESTAGE [order forms](https://support.estage.com/order-forms) and the ESTAGE [store](https://support.estage.com/store).
- **Storefront only.** The connector can't read your orders, customers or inventory levels.
- **API versions expire.** Shopify supports each Storefront API version for about a year. If the
  products stop loading with an unsupported-version error, set a current version in **API version
  (optional)**.
- Republish your site after configuring so the live site picks up the connector.
