# Shopify

The following steps outline how to get the API credentials needed to integrate Workforce with [Shopify](https://shopify.dev/docs) to be able to browse and select products.

You'll need the same credentials to configure the Shopify action extension for use in Workforce Flows, and for setting up a commerce repository for  Workforce content generation templates.

- [Installing action extension](https://amplience.com/developers/docs/workforce/setup/integrations/#installing-an-action-extension) explains how to install extensions from the Workforce integrations marketplace.

- [Setting up a commerce repository](https://amplience.com/developers/docs/workforce/setup/integrations/#setting-up-commerce-repositories) provides more information about adding commerce repositories.

## What you'll need

The following details are required:

- Shopify Site ID
- Shopify access token
- Shopify API version

The setup information on this page assumes that you already have a Shopify store set up.

## Finding the site ID

You can find the site ID in two ways:

- The URL when logged into Shopify. In the example used on this page it's `amp-content-studio-01` and the login URL is `https://admin.shopify.com/store/amp-content-studio-01`

- From the "Stores" section of your account, as shown below

## Getting an API access token

Log in to your store and select "Apps and Sales channels" from the menu on the left.

- Click the "Develop apps" button.

- Give the app a name, assign an app developer and create the app

![Assign the app a name and developer](https://cdn.media.amplience.net/i/ampproduct/shopify-content-studio-8?w=1880&fmt=png 'Assign the app a name and developer')

- The configuration screen will be displayed

The Workforce integration uses the Storefront API and requires the following access: `unauthenticated_read_product_listings`.

- Choose Configuration -> Storefront API integration. Enable the required setting and click "Save".

To get the access token you need to install the app.

- Click "Install app" and then click the "Install" button on the confirmation dialog.

You now have access to a storefront API Access token with the correct scope.

## Getting the Shopify Storefront API version

We recommend using the latest version as specified in the [Shopify documentation](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/storefront). This is currently `2024-07`.

Should there be any issues with an updated API version, then use a previous version.
