Integrating with your Shopify store starts with setting up the below in your Shopify account:
Create an app for your Shopify store that you need to integrate with Zappter
Then configure the API scope of the app mentioned above. This is where you enable read/write capabilities of your Shopify store's customer data, analytics, categories, products, orders, etc.
Finally, get an API token that you will use it in Zappter to enable integration with your Shopify store.
Currently this integration supports Products & Product Listings.
