Connect your Shopify store

A controlled connection path, not a vague “one-click” promise.

Connect Shopify and prepare WardrobeIt to use your catalog.

Merchant-approved Shopify data → shopper-ready product context

Webhook-driven Shopify product sync

One catalog change, three connected outcomes.

Supported Shopify create, update, and delete events refresh the WardrobeIt catalog after processing. The merchant sees the sync state, the assistant uses the updated record, and the shopper receives guidance aligned with the store’s latest data.

  • Webhook-driven, not “zero delay” Processing can depend on Shopify events, network conditions, permissions, and WardrobeIt processing status.
  • Manual re-sync remains available Merchants can trigger a full catalog refresh after large updates, recovery, or troubleshooting.

Inventory, variant, and price accuracy

The assistant should recommend what shoppers can actually choose.

Shopify product sync is commercially useful only when it reduces false availability, invalid variant combinations, outdated prices, and dead-end cart paths.

Shopify remains the source of truth

WardrobeIt uses the current synchronized product record and should not silently substitute a different size, color, price, or product.

Safe assistant response Catalog-grounded
Medium is unavailable in Sage.

I can show the same product in Black or Champagne, or recommend a similar Sage dress that is currently available in Medium.

  • Current prices

    Use product and variant pricing from the synchronized Shopify record. Never invent a discount or promotional condition.

  • Catalog boundaries

    Scope product queries, sync jobs, recommendations, and shopper answers to the correct merchant workspace.

  • Safe fallbacks

    When information is incomplete, state the limitation, offer a supported alternative, or direct the shopper to the product page.

Automatic updates with a merchant control room behind them.

Catalog health, security, and data boundaries

Trust comes from visible boundaries, not vague security slogans.

Describe the actual connection method, verified controls, scoped data flow, masked credentials, clear errors, and supported catalog coverage.

Merchant workspace boundary

Shopify store

Approved catalog data enters the merchant’s WardrobeIt workspace through the supported connection.

Admin API token

Never shown in public UI

Shopper experience

Recommendations and answers use the correct merchant catalog, not another store or the open web.

  • Merchant-specific catalog boundaries Scoped

    Product queries, sync jobs, recommendation logic, and shopper answers remain tied to the relevant merchant workspace.

  • Secure credential handling Masked

    Public pages, screenshots, documentation examples, and support messages should never expose Shopify tokens, WardrobeIt API keys, customer data, or private store configuration.

  • Approved connection method Accurate

    The current documented setup uses a Shopify custom-app Admin API token through the Merchant Portal. Do not present App Store, OAuth, or one-click installation until available.

  • Transparent sync errors Actionable

    Explain what failed, what catalog area is affected, whether guidance may be limited, and which recovery action the merchant can take.

  • No unsupported catalog coverage Bounded

    Do not imply all metafields, subscriptions, bundles, product extensions, or custom apps are supported unless mapped, tested, and enabled.

See one Shopify update become accurate shopper guidance.

Use real merchant products, real variants, and real store changes to validate the complete catalog-to-assistant journey before launch.

Shopify catalog sync FAQs

Clear answers before you connect.

The live page should explain the current connection method, synchronized data, webhook-driven updates, manual refresh, data boundaries, and product-truth limits without overclaiming App Store availability or zero-delay sync.

What is Shopify product catalog sync?

It connects supported Shopify product information with WardrobeIt so the AI shopping assistant can use approved products, collections, variants, prices, images, attributes, and availability.

How does Shopify product sync work with WardrobeIt?

The merchant connects Shopify through the Merchant Portal, imports approved catalog data, receives supported webhook-driven updates, and can trigger a full manual re-sync when required.

Is WardrobeIt available through the Shopify App Store?

The current documented setup uses a Shopify custom-app Admin API token through the WardrobeIt Merchant Portal. It should not be described as an App Store or OAuth installation until that flow is formally available.

What Shopify data can WardrobeIt synchronize?

Depending on the store and approved permissions, supported data can include products, collections, titles, descriptions, images, attributes, sizes, colors, variants, prices, availability, tags, categories, and product links.

Does WardrobeIt support real-time Shopify inventory sync?

WardrobeIt uses webhook-driven updates to keep supported inventory information aligned. “Real-time” should not be read as a guarantee of zero delay under every technical condition.

Can merchants manually refresh the catalog?

Yes. The Merchant Portal includes a manual re-sync action that can trigger a full catalog pull after large updates, recovery, or troubleshooting.

Can merchants exclude products or collections?

Yes. Merchants can control the approved catalog scope used by WardrobeIt. Excluded products and collections should not appear in shopper recommendations.

Does WardrobeIt change products inside Shopify?

This page describes Shopify-to-WardrobeIt synchronization. Catalog management should remain in Shopify unless a separate supported write action is documented and enabled.

Can Shopify catalog integration improve recommendations?

It can improve accuracy by providing current product, variant, price, attribute, and availability information. Commercial results still depend on catalog quality, configuration, implementation, and shopper behavior.

Is Shopify product sync safe?

The connection should use the approved authentication process, required permissions, merchant-specific boundaries, and secure credential handling. Tokens and private store data must never appear in public screenshots.

Give WardrobeIt the catalog data it needs.

Connect your Shopify store so the assistant can use real products, variants, prices, images, and availability across discovery, product Q&A, recommendations, and supported cart actions.
