Legacy Shopify integration for Support or Support and Chat

If you are using the legacy Shopify integration for Support or both Support and Chat, you will be automatically upgraded to the new integration:

• The legacy Shopify app installed in Support will be replaced with the new app
• Shopify data on the legacy integration will be migrated to the new integration
• Storefront connections will be visible in the Admin Center integrations interface

Legacy Shopify integration for Chat

If you are using the legacy Shopify integration only for Chat, we will soon provide in-product guidance to help you with the upgrade process. However, if you wish to upgrade now, you will need to set up the new integration and then uninstall the legacy Shopify for Chat app.

To manually upgrade to the new integration

1. In Admin Center, set up the Shopify integration. For more information, see Setting up Sunshine profiles and events for Shopify in Support.
2. In Chate, click the Settings icon () in the sidebar, then Account, and then select the Apps tab.
3. Select the Shopify for Chat app.
4. Click the options menu on the app, then select Uninstall.
5. In the Uninstall App window, click Uninstall App.

There will be a three month grace period to upgrade to the new integration, after which, the legacy Chat app will be removed.
