Connect & Configure
Before you start building with Shopify, you need to configure the integration.
Navigate to Workspace → Automations in your app.
Click Create to build a new automation.
You can also prompt EVE to build the automation for you.
Add a Shopify trigger / action/step.
Click Connect in the sidebar on the right and authorize Taskade.
If you have multiple stores, select the store you want to connect.
Configure and enable the automation (or continue adding steps).
Your Shopify data is now available to automations and agents.
Shopify Triggers
Use Shopify triggers to automate your app's business logic, respond to orders in real time, and create seamless customer experiences.
Trigger | Description |
New Order | Triggers when a new order is placed in your Shopify store |
Order Updated | Triggers when an order's status changes |
New Customer | Triggers when a new customer account is created |
Order Fulfilled | Triggers when an order is marked as fulfilled |
Order Cancelled | Triggers when an order is cancelled |
Shopify Actions
Build comprehensive commerce workflows with Shopify actions. Look up orders, manage customers, and create draft using automations or AI agents.
Action | Description |
Get Customer Orders | Retrieve order history for a customer by ID or email |
Get Order Details | Fetch full details of a specific order by ID |
Update Order Status | Change the status of an existing order |
Search Customers | Find customers by name, email, or tag |
Create Draft Order | Create a new draft order with specified items |
Use Shopify with AI Agents
Your AI agents can call Shopify actions as tools during conversations, allowing them to look up orders, retrieve customer data, and respond with live information.
Configure Shopify Tool
Connect Shopify to your workspace (see above).
Open your agent → Tools tab.
Enable Automation Actions or add Shopify as a custom tool.
The agent will call Shopify actions automatically when relevant during chat.
Prompt Examples
Your AI agents can use Shopify actions as tools during conversations:
User: "What's the status of order #1042?"
Agent → shopify.get_order(1042) → Order #1042: Shipped
Agent: "Order #1042 has been shipped! Tracking number: ABC123.
Example Workflows

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I connect multiple Shopify stores?
Yes. Connect each store separately in your workspace automations.
Which Shopify plans are supported?
All Shopify plans that support API access (Basic and above).
Is there a rate limit?
Taskade respects Shopify's API rate limits. High-volume stores may want to use scheduled triggers instead of real-time triggers to stay within limits.
