Setting up BetterUnite integration for your Shopify Store
In order to establish a connection from your BetterUnite account to your Shopify Store, you will need to configure a custom app in your store with a few clicks. The integration will only read information from your store, it will not write anything to your store. This is also under your full control as you provide access rights to the app as you set it up below.
Please see full instructions with screenshots below.
- Login to your Shopify store account
- On your Shopify dashboard, click on Settings.
- Click Apps and Sales Channels on the settings pop up page
- Click the Develop Apps for your store button
- Click the green Create an App button on top of the page
- Give your app a name, e.g. BetterUnite, for easy identification, and click Create App to create the app
- On the Overview tab of your new app, click the Configure Admin API Scopes button to configure access rights for this integration
- In the list of access scopes, check the following access rights: Customers->read_customers, Orders->read_orders and click Save.
- Click the API Credentials tab, and click the green Install App button and confirm installation.
- This part is important:click the link Reveal token once and be sure to copy the key somewhere immediately. This is the key we will need to establish a connection to your store.
- Note your Shopify store url. We just need the main url of your Shopify store, for example: https://xyz-test-store.myshopify.com
- Come back to the Shopify integration setup page in your BetterUnite settings, and click Enable Shopify Import, paste the above values into the corresponding textboxes and click submit.
