If you've read about our Shopify integration and are ready to get started, this article shows you how to set it up.
The installation is two parts:
Installing the Dash Shopify integration
Linking your SKU field
Step 1 - installing the Dash Shopify integration
As a Dash admin, send us a message using the in-app chat and ask us to enable the Shopify integration for your account.
We'll send you a unique installation link.
Sign into your Shopify store using an admin account.
Click the installation link and you should see a screen similar to this:
Click the "Install" button
You'll be redirected to login to Dash
You may first need to accept the cookie prompt
Enter your Dash username and password, or login using one of the social login buttons
You should see an "All set up!" message
Click "Back to Shopify" to continue using the plugin
The Dash Shopify app is now installed!
These instructions apply to production Shopify stores. If you are installing this app in a development store, we are aware of reports that this disables the ability to transfer the store to live. Please refer to Shopify's documentation and/or Shopify support for further information.
Step 2 - Setting up an SKU field in your Dash
Dash uses the SKU to match assets from your Dash to the right product in Shopify.
Therefore, in order to use the integration, you need to have a dedicated custom field that stores the SKU created in your Dash.
To set up an SKU field:
Step 1 - create the field
Go to Admin > Fields
Click the "New field" button
Choose the "SKU" suggested field from the list
Step 2 - link this field to the integration
Go to Admin > Integrations
Scroll down to Shopify
In the "Field used to match assets to products", make sure your SKU field is selected
Things to know about storing your SKUs in Dash:
The field doesn't have to be called SKU
The field can be either a Controlled Tags or Checklist type (we recommend using Controlled Tags)
Using the integration
Now you have set the integration up, you can start using it! Refer to the following articles based on what suits you best:
Installation troubleshooting
I see the message "You need to upgrade your Dash plan"
This most likely means you are trying to install the plugin using a Dash account without Admin rights. Please try again using an Admin user.
