Automate your Shopify import — without manual CSV uploads

The Shopify connector by Import2Shop links your suppliers directly to your Shopify store. Products, prices and stock levels sync automatically through the official Shopify API — no more manual Shopify CSV imports.

How the Shopify connector works

1

Connect Shopify

You link your Shopify store to Import2Shop through the official Shopify API. No manual CSV upload, no error-prone files.

2

Supplier & mapping

Connect your wholesaler via CSV, XML, API or EDI and decide which fields map where in Shopify. Pricing rules and margins are set up once.

3

Automatic sync

From here on the Shopify import runs on its own. New items, price changes and stock levels update in Shopify on the schedule you define.

What the Shopify connector handles for you

More than product import — Import2Shop pushes your supplier data into Shopify in a clean, structured shape.

Automated product import

Items from your suppliers are created in Shopify automatically — including descriptions, variants and properties, without manual Shopify CSV imports.

Images & variant images

Through the Shopify API we transfer product images straight into your store — variant images are mapped to the right SKU.

Categories as product type & collection

Shopify does not build menu structures on its own. Import2Shop imports a product's category as the Shopify product type and creates it as a smart collection. You build a clean category and menu structure once, and it fills itself.

Prices & margins, automatic

Define markups, rounding rules and minimum margins. If a purchase price changes, your Shopify retail price follows automatically.

Inventory in real time

Stock levels sync continuously. When a supplier item sells out, Shopify gets adjusted right away — no overselling.

Orders handled automatically

Orders are pulled from Shopify and forwarded to your wholesaler — provided the wholesaler offers an API. You choose which order statuses get picked up.

The Shopify connector does not yet support automatic import of base prices — you fill those in manually for now.

Yes. You can attach as many suppliers as you want and define separate mapping and pricing rules for each. Everything runs from one central dashboard.
