Will this break our existing reports?
No. The adapter writes through a versioned schema layer with full lineage. Existing reports, BI extracts and Excel pivot-tables keep working unchanged while new fields and new objects are added behind the scenes for the Shopify surface.
Does it work with our existing Shopify licenses?
Yes — the adapter rides on top of your existing Shopify subscription. We use service-principal or OAuth M2M credentials so the integration never burns a named-user seat and never pushes you into a higher tier.
What happens if Shopify changes their API after we go live?
Our SRE team monitors Shopify change announcements and rolls compatibility updates inside our maintenance retainer. If a breaking change ships, we own the migration; you don't pay extra to stay current and you don't field calls from the vendor.
Can the Shopify adapter handle our custom fields?
On first connection the adapter discovers every custom field, custom object and custom workflow inside your Shopify tenant and presents them as first-class mappings — you decide which to mirror, which to ignore, and which to enrich.
How is data security handled?
Tokens and credentials live inside a hardware-backed secret store with audit logging on every read. The Shopify adapter runs on isolated workers with deny-by-default egress, and every message is replayable from a tamper-evident journal for downstream forensics.
Is this a packaged Shopify connector or a custom build?
It is a Connectify-owned adapter, not a third-party packaged connector. We maintain the code, we monitor the runtime, and the fields, hooks, and reconciliation rules are shaped to your exact data model — not a generic schema we hope matches.
