# Shopify

This Integration requires Fides Cloud or Fides Enterprise. For more information, [talk to our solutions team. (opens in a new tab)](/content/speak-with-us?utm_source=docs-site/index.html)

[Shopify (opens in a new tab)](https://www.shopify.com/) is an e-commerce platform that allows businesses to create and manage their online stores.

## Prerequisites [Permalink for this section](/content/docs/integrations/saas-integrations/shopify#prerequisites/index.html)

In order to [integrate](/content/docs/integrations/index.html) with Shopify, you'll need to collect the following information:

| Name            | Description                                                                                         |
|-----------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| **Domain**\*    | Your Shopify API Domain. The URL for accessing your store API is built with the following format: **store_name**.myshopify.com |
| **Access token**\* | Your Access Token. Follow Shopify's docs to [setup a custom app and get your access token (opens in a new tab)](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/apps/app-types/custom-apps). |

In case you have changed the domain and can't find the store name easily, when logging to your admin page, the store name can be seen on the url like so [https://admin.shopify.com/store/{store_name} (opens in a new tab)](https://admin.shopify.com/store/%7Bstore_name%7D)

Your Shopify access token will need the following permissions: `read_customers`, `read_orders`, `read_content`, `read_inventory`, `read_online_store_pages`, `write_online_store_pages`, `write_customer_data_erasure`, `read_customer_data_erasure`.

## Technical detail [Permalink for this section](/content/docs/integrations/saas-integrations/shopify#technical-detail/index.html)

Fides utilizes _API endpoints_ to access the _API service_ for a SaaS application. An _API service_ is the programmatic interface through which Fides can query and update data within an application to access, rectify, or delete personal information. Each SaaS tool will have a unique set of endpoints to enable privacy functions.

### Shopify endpoints [Permalink for this section](/content/docs/integrations/saas-integrations/shopify#shopify-endpoints/index.html)

In the table below, you can find which endpoints are used for each type of privacy function. Clicking on the endpoint will take you to the documentation for that endpoint.

| Privacy function                | Endpoint                                              | Description                                                        |
