Sync Your Shopify Store with House of India

To make the product sync features work, the seller firstly needs to create a custom app on their Shopify store.

Step 1: The seller needs to log in to their Shopify account and create a custom app from the “apps” section.

Step 2: Click on “create an app” and enter the name of the app.

After entering the name of the app, click on “Create app”.

Step 3: After creating the custom app, now the seller needs to configure Admin APIs by clicking on “configure Admin API scopes”.

Now, the seller needs to provide the required permission for the custom app.

Mandatory Permission to create custom app as sales channel:

Here are the required permissions for the custom seller app:

The seller needs to install the app by clicking on the “install app” button.

Step 4: After installing the app, the seller will get the access token, API key, and secret key.

Now, the seller needs to copy the access token, API key, and secret key and paste them into the “seller sync app configuration” on their Multi-vendor seller panel
