How it Works

The BirdDog Shopify Connector monitors your data for updates (add, change, or delete) and sends that to Shopify while also monitoring Shopify for new orders. The BirdDog Shopify Connector leverages Shopify's built-in APIs to enable seamless integration.

New orders placed on Shopify will go through the following workflow:

  1. New Order is placed on Shopify
  2. Shopify Connector downloads Order
  3. The sales order is invoiced and posted
  4. Shopify Connector notifies Shopify that the order has been shipped and uploads the quantity shipped, date shipped, and any tracking information (Shipper, Tracking Number & Tracking URL.)

BirdDog integrations are powered by BirdDog JobMaster, an automation tool that runs the Shopify Connector—and other integrations—on a customizable schedule. Each time it runs, the Shopify Connector uses the Shopify API to transfer data between Shopify and your ERP, accounting system, or BirdDog platform.
