Shopify Integration

HookFlow provides seamless integration with Shopify webhooks to help you reliably process store events. This guide will walk you through setting up and configuring Shopify webhooks with HookFlow.

Setting Up Shopify Webhooks

Follow these steps to configure your Shopify webhooks:

1. Get Your HookFlow Endpoint

First, copy your unique HookFlow endpoint URL from your dashboard. This is where Shopify will send webhook events.

2. Configure Webhook in Shopify

Go to your Shopify admin panel
Navigate to Settings > Notifications
Scroll down to "Webhooks"
Click "Create webhook"
Select the event type
Enter your HookFlow endpoint URL
Choose the webhook version (2023-07 recommended)
Save the webhook

3. Add Shopify Secret

After creating the webhook, Shopify will provide a webhook secret. Add this to your HookFlow dashboard under the Shopify integration settings to verify webhook authenticity.

Supported Events

HookFlow supports all Shopify webhook events. Some commonly used events include:

orders/create
orders/paid
orders/fulfilled
products/create
products/update
customers/create
refunds/create

Event Format

Shopify webhook events follow a consistent format. Here's an example of an orders/create event:

{
  "id": 123456789,
  "email": "customer@example.com",
  "created_at": "2023-01-01T00:00:00Z",
  "total_price": "99.99",
  "currency": "USD",
  "financial_status": "paid",
  "customer": {
    "id": 987654321,
    "email": "customer@example.com",
    "first_name": "John",
    "last_name": "Doe"
  },
  "line_items": [
    {
      "id": 456789123,
      "product_id": 789123456,
      "title": "Product Name",
      "quantity": 1,
      "price": "99.99"
    }
  ]
}
