I recently changed a Shopify store to use a separate SPA using the storefront API. However the old 'online store' is still running as a separate website with some theme plugins etc. I'd like to remove this sales channel now that I'm using a custom app and the storefront API so that customers aren't confused as to why there are two websites running concurrently. However, when going to remove my online store, Shopify prompts me with an 'are you sure' modal that contains a warning that I won't be able to publish products and that they will send a request to a developer to delete personal customer information.
Obviously this is not what I want as the store is still running through storefront API and I still need everything on the Shopify admin side to remain intact and running. I tried getting support from Shopify about it but they just pointed me in the direction of the developer documentation. It's not really clear what impact deleting this sales channel would have? Any advice from someone who's done something similar would be greatly appreciated.
I am trying to play around with FedEx APIs: https://developer.fedex.com/api/en-us/home.html
and actually I would like to know, is it possible to track new created Shipment via Ship API on sandbox/test environment?
Actually I've tried to create multiple different types of Shipments validate them, and received 200 Ok response, however I wasn't able to track it by tracking number returned in response, so the question is it possible at all on API sandbox environment to create Shipment and find it by tracking number on FedEx site or using Track API's Track by Number Endpoint.
Cannot find such limitations in documentation, so will be very appreciated if someone can shed light on this.
I think it's not possible to track with the tracking IDs which you get from ship API.
But you can track the orders with the mock tracking numbers from here.
It's really very irritating because when we get the tracking IDs in the test environment, we should be able to track the orders by using them in the test environment. FedEx should have to focus on this.
I would like to sell a few products on Shopify. The user should be able to select a product and fill a form. Then some of these values will be passed to an external API and the API returns the correct price. How to implement this in Shopify? Are there any Shopify apps that could support the development of this?
The development process has not yet begun, so I'm free to use any other shop builder out there.
There are some apps to make it possible so you can sell at different price for customers.
Shopify appstore app
Bold custom pricing
Wholesale pricing discount
But I don't think these apps will not perfectly satisfy your needs.
If I can suggest something, after customer fills a form and get a price, then you can make price of product show on the store, and at the same time you can make a request to change the price of that product by using Shopify product api. Then everytime customer comes to your store and buy products, the price will change and they will be able to purchage at different price. I think it will work.
In the end, I decided to use Stripe Checkout for this. The design is amazing and the setup is simple. Later I will most likely switch to Stripe.js and Stripe Elements to enable even more customization.
I would like to build an app that shows me the price history of products and notifies me when the price reaches a certain limit.
I know that some of these things already exist, but I'm also interested in learning how to build them and trying out some technologies.
This is my question:
how do I get access to the Amazon Product API without having a website?
Right now, there are two Amazon APIs:
The older one is called Amazon MWS. You find its documentation here.
The newer one is called SP-API (abbreviation for Selling Partner API). This is their main page.
The access to both is only possible after registering as a professional seller (sic!), which costs a monthly fee (about USD 40). After registering as a seller, you then have to additionally register as a developer within your seller account.
If you do not want to pay monthly fees or register, you could also try webscraping their website. Here I do not now, what their policy is.
Currently I am using the Shopify app Oberlo with it's chrome extension to manually send over dropship orders one by one.
This works find but I have between 100 to 1000 orders daily during testing.
Can anybody recommend a way to automate this using either an API directly from AliExpress (which the affiliate API is all I have been able to find) or possibly a laravel wrapper integrated with Shopify that has the ability to post dropship orders automatically.
Much appreciated!
I've been looking for similar documentation on AliExpress and found the dropshipping subsection of their API:
Get Product Info: https://developers.aliexpress.com/en/doc.htm?docId=35321&docType=2
Place an Order: https://developers.aliexpress.com/en/doc.htm?docId=35446&docType=2
Get Tracking info from a previous order: https://developers.aliexpress.com/en/doc.htm?docId=40656&docType=2
Other less-common dropshipping APIs are available from the sidebar navigation of any of these.
It also appears that you have to register as a seller (even though you're just buying) to get access to these dropshipping API.
You'll have to build a shopify app that can receive your orders and turn around to place them on AliExpress. I haven't seen a tool that can place orders automatically without coding.
