Connect your Shopify store

Link your store once, then create draft products from Listing preparation (photos, title, description, tags). This page will grow with screenshots and more topics.

Before you start

Optify must have Shopify enabled on the server (API keys and redirect URL). If connection always fails, contact support.
Use a Shopify account that can install apps or approve OAuth (usually store owner).

Connect in Optify

Open Profile → Accounts.
Under Shopify, enter your store subdomain: my-store or my-store.myshopify.com.
Click Connect Shopify store and approve the permissions on Shopify.
Return to Optify; your shop should show as connected.

Create a draft from Listing preparation

Open Listing preparation with your listings and fill the photo grid (and fields).
Click the green Shopify button, enter price, then Create draft.
Your browser should open the product in Shopify admin; review, publish, and adjust category or SEO as needed.

Digital products & downloads

If your listing is marked Digital in Optify, we set the Shopify variant to do not require shipping. To sell downloadable files (PDF, ZIP, etc.), Shopify usually needs an app such as Digital Downloads — attach files to the product in Shopify after the draft is created.

Troubleshooting

Issue	What to try
Redirect / oauth error	Redirect URL in your Shopify app settings must match the server configuration exactly.
“Not connected”	Connect again from Profile; disable strict blockers for cookies or third-party redirects if needed.
Wrong product category	Shopify taxonomy ≠ Etsy; edit the standard category in Shopify admin if the guess is off.
