Connect your store

The Shopify integration connects your store to Atelier Digital. Once connected, it syncs your product catalog and tracks orders that come from the virtual fitting room. It is read-only and never changes your products, orders or store settings.

What you need

• A Shopify store, and a staff account with permission to manage Apps and sales channels (or the store owner’s help).
• About 10 minutes.

Permissions requested

Permission	Why it is needed
read_products	Read your catalog to sync it.
read_orders	Detect orders that came from the virtual fitting room.

We do not read customer names, emails, phone numbers or addresses.

How it works

Shopify requires each store to use its own app. You will create a private app in Shopify’s Dev Dashboard, configure it, install it on your store and authorize it with us. There are six phases:

1. Open the Dev Dashboard
2. Create the app
3. Configure it
4. Release
5. Get credentials and install
6. Authorize with us

Phase 1: Open the Dev Dashboard

Shopify moved app creation into a separate Dev Dashboard. You get there through your store’s regular admin, with no separate login.

1. Go to your store’s admin at admin.shopify.com and sign in.

2. In the left sidebar, select Apps.

   

3. Click App settings in the panel that opens.

   

4. Click Develop apps.

   

5. Click Build apps in Dev Dashboard.

   

6. Click Create app.

   

Phase 2: Create and name the app

7. Under Start from Dev Dashboard, name the app AD.AI - Virtual Fitting Room, then click Create app.

   

Phase 3: Configure the app

Three settings, all on the same App settings page: where the app lives, what it is allowed to read, and where Shopify sends you after you approve access.

8. Under URLs, set App URL to:

   https://onboarding-shopify.atelierdigitalai.com/

   Leave Embed app in Shopify admin unchecked.

   

   Caution

   This app is a connector, not a screen inside your Shopify admin. If the box is checked, Shopify tries to load our authorization screen inside a frame, blocks it for security, and you get a connection error partway through.

9. Under API access → Scopes, enter exactly:

   read_orders,read_products

   

10. Under Allowed redirection URL(s), enter:

    https://onboarding-shopify.atelierdigitalai.com/auth/callback

    

Phase 4: Release your configuration

Settings you enter are not live until you release a version. It takes two clicks.

11. Scroll up and click Release.

    

12. Confirm by clicking Release again in the dialog. The version name is optional and can stay blank.

    

Phase 5: Get your credentials, then install

Two values identify your app to us. You will copy them once and use them in the last phase, so keep this tab open.

13. In the left sidebar, click App settings.

    

14. Under Credentials, copy the Client ID and the Secret (click the eye icon to reveal it).

    

    Copy both values somewhere safe now. You will paste them in Phase 6, and having them ready avoids switching tabs back and forth.

15. Click the app’s name at the top of the sidebar, then click Install app.

    

16. Review the permissions and click Install to confirm.

    

Phase 6: Authorize with Atelier Digital

17. Open the connection page, onboarding-shopify.atelierdigitalai.com. Your store domain is filled in. Paste the Client ID and Client Secret from Phase 5, then click Authorize.

    

18. You are sent to Shopify to approve the connection, then land on a confirmation screen. That means it worked.

    

You’re connected

Let the Atelier Digital team know the installation is complete. We will finish the setup on our end and confirm once your catalog and orders are syncing.

If a screen looks different from what is shown here, or something fails along the way, stop and contact us rather than guessing. See also Troubleshooting.
