Configure your Shopify store for website personalisation – Ometria Help Centre

This article explains how to set up your Shopify store to integrate with Ometria's website personalisation features.

Before you begin

Get in touch with your Customer Success Representative (or your Technical Projects Manager if you're still onboarding).

They can help guide you through the process and make sure Shopify is properly integrated with Ometria's website personalisation features.

Create a custom app

First, you'll need to create a custom app in your Shopify store.

Shopify documentation: Create and install a custom app

Once you've named the app, leave all the default values that are preselected for the URL and API version.

Configure Admin API scopes

Click on 'Select scopes' and choose the scopes from the list below:

Scope

read_orders

read_products

read_inventory

read_product_listings

write_content read_content

write_themes read_themes

read_translations

read_markets

read_customers

read_locations

read_price_rules

read_product_feeds

read_publications

read_channels

read_locales

read_companies

read_gift_cards

read_metaobjects

read_metaobject_definitions

Release your changes.

Install the app and get your API access tokens

Next, click Install app and get the API access tokens.

Shopify documentation: Install the app and get the API access tokens

Store the following details in a secure place:

Access token
API key
API secret key

Ometria requires these pieces of information to configure our website personalisation features for authentication, data access and webhook verification.

Adding credentials to Ometria

Finally, you can add your API access tokens to Ometria.

Go to: Website personalisation > Administration > Shopify integration

From the Shopify Integration screen, click Credentials:

Enter the credentials from your Shopify custom app:

Field	Description
Shopify URL	Enter your myshopify domain.
API Key	Enter your Shopify API key.
Admin Access Token	Enter your Shopify access token.

Scopes

In the Scopes table you can see which of your Admin API scopes from Shopify are currently enabled.

Data validation

In the Data screen you can check to see if data is syncing correctly between Shopify and Ometria.

Update Shopify Themes

In the next screen you'll see a list of your Shopify themes.

We recommend making a clone/copy of your current site theme in Shopify and then checking the status and making any necessary changes.

Please get in touch with your Customer Success Representative or Technical Projects Manager for further guidance on this step.

Version control

By default, all new custom apps will use the latest API version.

If you require a specific version, please get in touch with your Ometria Technical Projects Manager.
