    • read_customers - View customer information
    • read_inventory - Check stock levels
  3. Click Save

​

  4. Go to API credentials tab
  5. Copy the API key

​

​
Store URL Format

Your store URL should be in this format:
  • Correct: mystore.shopify.com
  • Incorrect: https://mystore.shopify.com (no protocol)
  • Incorrect: mystore.com (use Shopify subdomain)

​
Verification

After setup, verify the connection works:
  1. Open Chatlab (ChatCrafterAI testing environment)
  2. Send test message: “What products do you have?”
  3. Agent should return list of products from your store
  4. If error appears:
    • Verify credentials are copied exactly (no spaces)
    • Check API permissions are enabled correctly
    • Ensure store URL format is correct

​
Troubleshooting Setup

Connection failed?
  • Verify access token is valid (not expired)
  • Check API key matches the custom app
  • Ensure all required permissions are enabled
  • Confirm app is installed in your store
“Unauthorized” error?
  • API scopes may be missing - add required permissions
  • Access token might be incorrect
  • App might not be installed properly
Products not showing?
  • Verify products exist in your Shopify store
  • Check products are published (not draft)
  • Ensure inventory tracking is enabled

​
Security Notes

  • Store access token securely - it provides read access to your store data
  • Use dedicated custom app for ChatCrafterAI (don’t share credentials)
  • You can revoke access anytime by uninstalling the app in Shopify
  • ChatCrafterAI only requests read permissions (cannot modify your store)
