Connecting Your Shopify Store

Step 1: Get Your Shopify Credentials

  • Click "Develop apps" → "Create an app"
  • Name it "Velopage Integration"
  • Configure Admin API scopes (see required permissions below)

Required API Permissions

Your Shopify app needs these scopes:

  • write_products (Create and update products)
  • read_products (Read existing products)
  • write_files (Upload product images)
  • read_files (Read uploaded images)

Step 2: Connect in Velopage

  • Go to your Velopage Dashboard → Settings

One-Click Export

Once your store is connected, exporting is instant:
