Overview

The Heap Shopify integration automatically captures all Shopify order events, as well as any user properties available in Shopify including order aggregations (like LTV) or customer information (like their name and preferences) via the Shopify API.

With the Heap Shopify source, you can:

• Segment your users by customer lifetime value and purchasing behavior
• Understand what customer behavior and demographics are correlated with repeat purchases
• Determine purchase conversion rates by product and identify bottlenecks for low performing products

To connect the Shopify source, you’ll need the following:

• Admin or Architect permissions in Heap
• Store Owner access to your Shopify account
• The name of your Shopify shop(s) (ex. companyname.myshopify.com)

While not required to use the Shopify Source, if you want to also track client-side events, you need to install Heap on your Shopify site. See our Shopify installation instructions to set this up.

Multiple Shopify Storefronts

You can have multiple Shopify storefronts connected to the same Heap environment. After you have set up one storefront, contact us via the Get support page to add additional storefronts.

Setup

To get started, visit the Shopify source in the app and click Set Up in the top right corner of the page.

You will then be prompted to specify an email property if you haven’t set one up already for your account. The selected user property needs to be the user property associated with your users’ email addresses as this is the property Shopify uses when sending Heap data about your users.

You will next be redirected to install the Heap app in your Shopify store and authenticate the integration. Once authenticated, you’ll be redirected back to the Shopify source page in Heap with a successful confirmation message.

Upon completion, the source connection page will say Waiting For Data until the first event data from Shopify is seen by Heap, at which point the connection status will change to Connected.

If you need help, please post in Heap Community or visit our Get support page.

Note: Shopify has a separate theme for the checkout page that is only available to their higher-tiered customers. If you do not have access to this theme to add the Heap installation snippet, then you will not be able to track events on this page. To learn more, see Shopify’s documentation on Upgrading your online checkout.
