Shopify authentication

This connector is optimized for AI agents. For the data replication connector, see Shopify.

This page documents the authentication and configuration options for the Shopify agent connector.

Authentication

Open source execution

In open source mode, you provide API credentials directly to the connector.

OAuth

This authentication method isn't available for this connector.

Token

credentials fields you need:

Field Name	Type	Required	Description
`api_key`	`str`	Yes	Your Shopify Admin API access token

Example request:

from airbyte_agent_sdk.connectors.shopify import ShopifyConnector
from airbyte_agent_sdk.connectors.shopify.models import ShopifyAuthConfig

connector = ShopifyConnector(
    auth_config=ShopifyAuthConfig(
        api_key="<Your Shopify Admin API access token>"
    )
)

Hosted execution

In hosted mode, you first create a connector via the Airbyte Agent API (providing your OAuth or Token credentials), then execute operations using either the Python SDK or API. If you need a step-by-step guide, see the developer quickstart.

OAuth

This authentication method isn't available for this connector.

Bring your own OAuth flow

This authentication method isn't available for this connector.

Token

Create a connector with Token credentials.

credentials fields you need:

Field Name	Type	Required	Description
`api_key`	`str`	Yes	Your Shopify Admin API access token

Example request:

curl -X POST "https://api.airbyte.ai/api/v1/integrations/connectors" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "workspace_name": "<WORKSPACE_NAME>",
    "connector_type": "Shopify",
    "name": "My Shopify Connector",
    "credentials": {
      "api_key": "<Your Shopify Admin API access token>"
    }
  }'

Execution

After creating the connector, execute operations using either the Python SDK or API. If your Airbyte client can access multiple organizations, include organization_id in AirbyteAuthConfig and X-Organization-Id in raw API calls.

Python SDK

The connect() factory returns a fully typed ShopifyConnector and reads AIRBYTE_CLIENT_ID / AIRBYTE_CLIENT_SECRET from the environment:

API

curl -X POST 'https://api.airbyte.ai/api/v1/integrations/connectors/<connector_id>/execute' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN>' \
  -H 'X-Organization-Id: <YOUR_ORGANIZATION_ID>' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
