Shopify API Credentials

When creating an integration in Tradebox to a Shopify webstore you will need to provide Tradebox with:

• The Shopify Webstore URL
• API Key
• API Password

Webstore URL

Your webstore URL can be viewed after logging in to your Shopify admin panel. If you click into the address bar at the top of that page, it is the website address that appears there before /admin. You can also view it by clicking your username in the top right of Shopify, and then selecting Manage Account. It appears in the Stores, programs and resources section:

In the screenshot above, two urls are displayed because we have two Shopify sites linked to the same account. You only need the url for the store you are attempting to connect with Tradebox.
