# Linking Shopify as a source - Docs

The Shopify connector can sync your Shopify store data into PostHog.

To sync Shopify data:

## In Shopify

1.  Go to your Shopify store's admin panel at `https://admin.shopify.com/store/your-store-id`
2.  Click **Settings**.
3.  Click **Apps and sales channels**.
4.  Click **Develop apps**.
5.  **IMPORTANT:** Click **Build apps in Dev Dashboard** (legacy apps will be deprecated January 1 2026).
6.  Click **Create app**.
7.  Give your app a name and click **Create**.
8.  You will be redirected to a screen for releasing a new version of your app. Here, you need to:
9.  Set the app URL. Use the default value `https://shopify.dev/apps/default-app-home`.
10.  Choose the app scopes. We recommend that you select all read options for the simplest setup.
11.  Click **Release** and fill in the optional release details.
12.  Go to **Home** in the Dev Dashboard and click **Install app** to install the app in your store.
13.  Go to **Settings** in the Dev Dashboard and note your `Client ID` and `Secret` for later.

For more information about creating apps in Dev Dashboard see [the Shopify docs](https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/build/dev-dashboard/create-apps-using-dev-dashboard).

## In PostHog

1.  Go to the [data pipelines page](https://app.posthog.com/data-management/sources), and select the **Sources** tab.
2.  Click the **\+ New source** button and select Shopify by clicking the **\+ Create** button.
3.  Fill in your Shopify `Store ID` as well as the `Client ID` and `Secret` from above.
4.  *Optional:* Add a prefix to your table names.
5.  Click **Next**.
6.  Select the Shopify objects you want to sync, and make any sync configuration changes you need.
7.  Click **Import**.

After these setup steps, your Shopify data will be automatically synced to the PostHog data warehouse. You can see details and progress in the data pipelines [sources tab](https://app.posthog.com/data-management/sources).
