Shopify Integration: Connect Your Store & Automate Orders

funnelish · March 29, 2026, 3:06pm

Seamlessly sync new orders from your ecommerce funnels directly to your Shopify backend!

Our Shopify integration puts your fulfillment on absolute autopilot. It natively supports product variants, adjusts your inventory levels in real-time, and completely eliminates the constant struggle of upsells and downsells being added to Shopify as separate customers or split orders.

Watch this quick video walkthrough to see how the direct integration works:

Step 1: Connect Your Shopify Store

To automatically send your funnel orders to your fulfillment center, you need to connect Funnelish to your Shopify account. There are two ways to do this: the recommended 1-click install, or the fallback custom app method.

Method A: The 1-Click App Install (Recommended & Easiest)

For 99% of ecommerce brands, this is the fastest way to connect your store.

Part 1: Get your Shopify Domain

Open a new browser tab and log in to your Shopify store admin panel.
Go to Settings > Domains and copy your primary .myshopify.com domain name (it should look like yourstore.myshopify.com).

Part 2: Connect in Funnelish

Log in to your Funnelish account.
Click the Settings gear icon at the top right, then select Integrations.
Click on Shopify to open the side panel.
Switch the connection toggle to the ON position.
Paste your copied Shopify domain into the domain field.

Click Connect. This will automatically open a Shopify permissions page on your screen.
On the Shopify page, click the Install unlisted app button.

Go back to the Funnelish side panel and click Save changes. Your Shopify store is now seamlessly connected!

Method B: Connect With Your Own Custom App (Fallback)

Only use this method if the 1-click install above does not work for your specific store setup.

Shopify changed how custom apps work. Since January 1, 2026, the old admin flow (Apps → Develop apps for your store) can no longer create new apps, and new custom apps no longer have a copyable Admin API access token. New custom apps are created in Shopify’s Dev Dashboard, and Funnelish connects with the app’s Client ID and Client Secret. Funnelish handles the access tokens for you automatically behind the scenes.

Connected with a legacy custom app in the past? It keeps working as-is. Nothing to change, this section is only for new connections.

1. Create the app in Shopify’s Dev Dashboard

Go to the Shopify Dev Dashboard and log in with the account that owns your store. If it’s your first visit, it sets up your free developer organization.
Click Apps, then Create app, and name it “Funnelish”.

2. Set the Admin API access scopes

In the app’s configuration, add these scopes:

read_products, write_products, read_orders, write_orders, read_customers, write_customers, read_fulfillments, write_fulfillments

3. Install the app on your store

From the app’s Home page in the Dev Dashboard, scroll down and click Install app.
Select your store, click Install, and approve the requested scopes.

4. Copy the credentials and link Funnelish

In the Dev Dashboard, open your app’s Settings page and copy the Client ID and Client Secret.
In Funnelish, go to Settings > Integrations > Shopify and click Connect using a custom app…
Enter your store’s .myshopify.com domain, the Client ID, and the Client Secret, then click Save Changes.

That’s it. There is no token to copy, store, or rotate: Funnelish exchanges your credentials with Shopify and keeps the connection refreshed automatically.

Connection failing with an invalid-credentials error? Check three things: the app is actually installed on the store (step 3), the domain you entered matches the store the app is installed on, and all eight scopes were approved during install.

Crucial Next Step: Order Bundling (99% Use Case)

Once your store is connected, you need to configure how Funnelish sends data to Shopify.

By far the most important feature to set up next is Order Bundling. If a customer buys a main product on your checkout page, adds an Order Bump, and then accepts a One-Click Upsell, you do not want those to show up as 3 separate orders in Shopify!

Our Order Bundling feature holds the initial transaction for a few minutes, waits to see if the customer accepts any post-purchase Upsells or Downsells, and then merges them all into a single, clean order for your fulfillment center.
