How to connect Salesforce to Shopify
Follow these steps to set up your integration. The entire process takes under 5 minutes.
What you'll need
- An active Salesforce account with API access enabled
- An active Shopify account
- A free Arahi AI account (sign up takes 30 seconds)
- Admin or API access in Salesforce to authorize the connection
Create your Arahi AI account
Sign up at app.arahi.ai — it's free and takes 30 seconds. No credit card required. You'll land on the dashboard where you can create your first workflow.
Authenticate Salesforce
Click "Add Connection" and select Salesforce from the app directory. You'll be redirected to Salesforce's authorization page. Grant Arahi read/write access to your contacts, deals, and pipeline data. You choose which objects the integration can access.
Authenticate Shopify
Same process for Shopify. Click "Add Connection," select Shopify, and authorize access. Grant Arahi access to your orders, products, and customer data. You choose which store data the integration can read.
Choose your trigger
Select what event starts the workflow. For this integration, popular triggers include: new contact created in salesforce or new order placed in shopify. The trigger fires automatically whenever that event happens — no manual intervention.
Configure the action
Define what happens when the trigger fires. For example: create order in shopify. Map the data fields between Salesforce and Shopify so the right information lands in the right place.
Test and activate
Run a test to confirm data flows correctly between Salesforce and Shopify. Check that the fields map as expected, then toggle the workflow on. It runs 24/7 from here — Arahi handles retries, error logging, and monitoring automatically.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about connecting Salesforce and Shopify.
How do I connect Salesforce to Shopify?
Sign up for a free Arahi AI account, then click "Add Connection" to authenticate both Salesforce and Shopify via OAuth. Choose a workflow template — like syncing crm events to commerce actions — customize the field mapping, and activate. The entire setup takes under 5 minutes.
What can I automate between Salesforce and Shopify?
You can automate a wide range of workflows: sync new Salesforce events to Shopify actions, trigger Shopify updates when Salesforce data changes, create Shopify records from Salesforce events, and build conditional workflows with filters and field mapping. Each workflow runs 24/7 with automatic retries.
Is the Salesforce and Shopify integration free?
Arahi AI includes 100 free actions per month on the Starter plan — enough for most small teams. If your Salesforce-to-Shopify workflows need more volume, paid plans start at $29/month with unlimited workflows and priority execution.
Is my Salesforce data secure when connected to Shopify?
Yes. Arahi uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication — we never store your Salesforce or Shopify passwords. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Your crm data is only accessed when a workflow runs, and you can revoke access at any time from your Arahi dashboard.
Can I sync data both ways between Salesforce and Shopify?
Yes. You can set up workflows that trigger from either Salesforce or Shopify. For example, create a workflow where Salesforce events update Shopify, and a separate one where Shopify changes sync back to Salesforce. Each direction is configured independently so you have full control.
Do I need technical skills to connect Salesforce and Shopify?
No coding is required. Arahi's visual workflow builder lets you configure triggers, actions, and field mapping with clicks. If you can use Salesforce and Shopify, you can set up the integration. Most users are running their first workflow within 10 minutes.
