Strapi + Shopify integration

What Strapi is

Strapi is an open-source headless CMS you can host yourself. Teams choose it for full control over content models and data.

How we would approach Strapi with Shopify

Strapi doesn't ship an official Shopify connector; community plugins exist, matched to Strapi's major version. We link content to Shopify products by ID or handle, fetch prices and stock from Shopify's Storefront API when pages render, and plan hosting, backups and updates, which become your responsibility.

What the work involves

• Content models linked to Shopify products by ID or handle
• Live product data fetched from Shopify, not stored in Strapi
• A community plugin chosen to match your Strapi version, or none
• Hosting, backups and upgrades planned

Ways to connect Strapi and Shopify

• Existing app

  @strapi-community/shopify

  A community plugin on Strapi's marketplace for Strapi 5. Not built by Strapi; check it's maintained.

• Custom build

  Product references

  A field that stores a Shopify product ID or handle; the front end fetches the rest from Shopify.

Where these projects go wrong

• A plugin for the wrong Strapi major version; v4 and v5 plugins aren't compatible.
• Self-hosting without backups or an upgrade plan.
• Product data copied into Strapi and left to go stale.

Questions

Is there an official Strapi Shopify integration?

Not from Strapi itself. Community plugins exist; we check one is maintained before relying on it.

Before we scope the work

• Which data or customer journey needs to connect, and which system owns it?
• What access, plan features or API permissions are available?
• Does an existing connector cover the requirement, including failures and updates?
• Who will maintain the connection, and how will you know it is working?
