OpenClaw + Shopify Integration Guide — Connect Your AI Agent

Why Connect OpenClaw with Shopify?

Shopify is one of the most popular tools for e-commerce operations and customer support. By integrating OpenClaw with Shopify, your AI agent can automatically interact with your Shopify workspace — reading data, sending messages, and triggering actions without manual intervention.

What You Can Build

• Automated responses — Your AI agent monitors Shopify and responds to messages, questions, or events automatically
• Data sync — Pull data from Shopify into your agent's context for smarter decisions
• Notifications — Get AI-generated summaries and alerts in Shopify
• Workflow triggers — Use Shopify events to trigger complex AI workflows

Setup Guide

Prerequisites

• OpenClaw installed on your server (Quick install guide)
• A Shopify account with API access or webhook permissions
• Basic familiarity with OpenClaw configuration

Step 1: Configure OpenClaw Channel

OpenClaw supports Shopify as a native channel. Add the Shopify configuration to your OpenClaw config file:

channels:
  shopify:
    enabled: true
    # Add your Shopify credentials here

Step 2: Set Up Your Agent's Personality

Create a SOUL.md file that defines how your agent behaves in Shopify. The personality should match the context — professional for work tools, friendly for community platforms.

Step 3: Test the Integration

Send a test message in Shopify and verify your OpenClaw agent responds correctly. Check the OpenClaw logs for any connection issues.
