Shopify and Audience Intel
Shopify is a hosted e-commerce platform. This page lists what connecting it does today and what it never touches.
Connect from your report
Connect from your report
- The connection itself, listed for your specialist against your report
- Your orders, products, customers and returns, looked at by your specialist only to check the report's findings
- Anything written back: Audience Intel has no code that changes data in Shopify
Connect Shopify from a released Intel loop report.
When your Intel loop report is released, its Connect panel offers Shopify. You sign in on Pipedream's hosted page and approve access; nothing is connected before you do.
Today the connection is listed for your named specialist, who can check the report's findings against your own numbers. No automated read of Shopify runs inside the report, and nothing is written back to your account.
A store's own numbers are the other half of a comparison with rivals: the outside view shows what a shopper sees, the store shows what they did.
When the own-ads audit ships.
The own-ads audit is one of the first four loops, and it is in build: it runs for nobody yet and is not on sale. When it ships, it is planned to hold the connection at workspace level rather than per report, so a loop could read it on each run instead of once.
Through Pipedream Connect, on your say-so.
You start it
From a released report's Connect panel, you choose which account to connect.
You sign in on Pipedream's page
Pipedream Connect hosts the sign-in. We never see your password; the credential stays with Pipedream.
You can disconnect
Revoke the access from the service's own account settings at any time, and the connection stops working.
What is read from Shopify, and what is not.
Never
- Your Shopify password: you sign in on Pipedream's page and the credential stays with Pipedream
- Anything written back: Audience Intel has no code that changes data in Shopify
- No automated, scheduled or bulk read of Shopify runs today
Today
- The connection itself, listed for your specialist against your report
- Your orders, products, customers and returns, looked at by your specialist only to check the report's findings
Shopify questions
Does Audience Intel connect to Shopify today?
Yes, from a released Intel loop report. The connection is listed for your specialist; no automated read of Shopify runs today.
Do you see my password?
No. Connections run through Pipedream Connect: you sign in to each service yourself on Pipedream's hosted page, and the credential is held by Pipedream. Audience Intel holds a reference to the connected account, not the password.
Do I need an integration to get a report?
No. The free Insight Report and an Intel loop read what a buyer can see from the outside. A connection only adds your own numbers beside that read.
Can I disconnect?
Yes, at any time. Revoke the access from your Shopify account settings and the connection stops working.
Will Shopify do more when loops ship?
It is planned. The Own-ads audit loop is in build, runs for nobody yet and is not on sale or priced.
Connect nothing. Read something first.
A report needs no integration. It starts from your web address and the competitors you lose to.
