Shopify: Add a Store in ShipWorks
Shopify is a complete ecommerce platform that lets you start, grow, and manage a business. Create an ecommerce website backed by powerful tools that help you find customers, drive sales, and manage your day-to-day.
ShipWorks connects directly to your Shopify store via the Shopify API. With one click, or on an automated schedule, your orders are downloaded from Shopify. As soon as you process a shipment, ShipWorks communicates the updated order status, shipping method and tracking information back to Shopify.
This article will guide you through the steps of adding your Shopify store to the ShipWorks software.
