Shopify Developer App Overview#

The Shopify Admin REST & GraphQL API unleashes a myriad of possibilities to automate and enhance online store operations. It provides programmatic access to Shopify functionalities, allowing users to manage products, customers, orders, and more. Leveraging the Shopify Admin API within Pipedream, developers can create custom workflows that automate repetitive tasks, sync data across platforms, and respond dynamically to events in Shopify.

This integration can be used as a custom app on your store, or for automating actions on behalf of merchants through your Shopify app.
