Overview
This section is the entry point for the Shopify connector in Business Central. It has two pages and no subtopics. One page introduces the connector and what it synchronizes. The other explains how to create a Shopify account to test it.
Start with “Getting started with the connector for Shopify” to learn how to connect a store and which data flows between Shopify and Business Central: items, prices, inventory, customers, companies and orders. Then use “Create and set up a Shopify account” if you need a store to try it on. That page covers a trial setup for end-users and a development store for partners.
