Tranthor Sync is a Shopify app that connects your store to Tranthor’s analytics pipeline. It syncs historical data (orders, customers, products) and streams real-time updates via Shopify webhooks.

How It Works

  1. You install the Tranthor Sync app in your Shopify admin.
  2. You provide a Tranthor workspace ID and Write Key.
  3. The app registers Shopify webhooks to Tranthor’s public webhook endpoint.
  4. Tranthor ingests events into your workspace and updates analytics.

Required Shopify Scopes

  • read_products
  • read_customers
  • read_orders
Note: Shopify requires Protected Customer Data approval for public apps to access orders and customers on non-development stores. Until approved, the app can sync products only.

Webhook Topics

  • orders/create
  • orders/updated
  • orders/paid
  • orders/fulfilled
  • orders/cancelled
  • customers/create
  • customers/update
  • products/update
  • Compliance: customers/data_request, customers/redact, shop/redact

Webhook URL Format

https://api.tranthor.com/api/public/webhooks/shopify/<workspaceId>
Replace <workspaceId> with your Tranthor workspace ID.

Tranthor Backend Requirements

Set the following environment variable so Tranthor can verify Shopify HMAC signatures:
SHOPIFY_APP_SECRET=your_shopify_app_secret
Optional hardening for sync handoff:
SHOPIFY_CONNECT_SHARED_SECRET=shared_secret_value
If set, configure the same value in the Shopify Sync app so /api/public/shopify/connect/resolve requires x-tranthor-connect-shared-secret.

App Configuration

In the Shopify app settings UI, enter:
  • Tranthor workspace ID
  • Tranthor Write Key
The app will validate your Write Key by calling Tranthor’s public ingestion API:
POST /api/public/apps/track
Authorization: Basic <write-key>

Event Names in Tranthor

  • shopify_order_created
  • shopify_order_updated
  • shopify_order_paid
  • shopify_order_fulfilled
  • shopify_order_cancelled
  • shopify_customer_created
  • shopify_customer_updated
  • shopify_product_updated
