Summary
Toolio provides turn-key integration with your Shopify instance via Shopify Private Apps. With the Shopify integration, Shopify can serve as a source of truth for your Sales, Inventory and Product information. The table below gives an overview of the type of information available for each of the data feeds, and your options where Shopify doesn’t have all the required information.
Shopify Feeds
Products, variants and collections
Provides variant level meta-data and pricing information. Shopify will likely not have the merchandise hierarchy information you need for planning. In this case, you can manually upload product attributes directly into Toolio.
Orders, transactions and fulfillments
Provides variant and location level sale information. If you are running all your commerce activity on Shopify, then Shopify will be your source of truth for sales information. If not, integrating the sales feed from your ERP will be a better option.
Inventory
Provides variant and location level daily inventory information. Toolio snapshots your inventory daily, so that you can leverage historical inventory data effectively.

2. Grant ‘Read Access’ in Admin API for:
- Orders, transactions and fulfillments
- Products, variants and collections
- Inventory

3. Please add the generated ‘API Key’ and ‘Password’ to Toolio.
