Connect your Shopify store
Link IndiSell to your Shopify store so it can read your catalogue, prices and orders — a one-time setup that takes a few minutes.
IndiSell needs a secure connection to your Shopify store to read products and prices, create orders, and keep your cart in sync. This is a one-time setup and uses Shopify's own permission screen — you never share your Shopify password with us.
Before you start
- You need admin access to the Shopify store (or the Apps and channels permission).
- Keep your store URL handy — it looks like
your-store.myshopify.com.
Steps
In the IndiSell dashboard, go to Settings → Store details and click Connect store.
You'll land on Shopify's permission screen. Review the access IndiSell requests and click Install. Shopify sends you straight back.
If prompted, paste your Storefront API access token (Shopify → Settings → Apps → Develop apps). This lets the checkout read live cart contents.
Back in Store details you'll see Connected next to your domain, with the Admin and Storefront tokens saved.
What each token is for
| Token | What it lets IndiSell do | Where it comes from |
|---|---|---|
| Admin API access token | Read products & prices, create draft orders, apply discounts | Captured automatically when you approve the install |
| Storefront API access token | Read the live cart the shopper built on your storefront | Shopify → Settings → Apps → Develop apps → Storefront API |
The checkout script
Once connected, IndiSell installs a single script on your storefront (a Shopify ScriptTag). That script is what opens the IndiSell checkout when a shopper taps Buy now or Checkout. You don't edit any theme files.
Reconnecting
If you rotate tokens or reinstall, use Reconnect on the Store details page. Your settings are preserved — only the connection is refreshed.
Next, run a test order to see the whole flow end to end.
