OR - Connect directly from your SimpliSent dashboard by entering your Shopify store link

Order Sync Features
- Real-time Sync – Orders appear in SimpliSent as soon as they are placed
- Automatic Updates – Order edits in Shopify (addresses, products, etc.) are reflected in SimpliSent
- Complete Data – Includes customer info, shipping addresses, and product details
- Historical Sync – Import existing orders from your store
- Return Support – Process and fulfill Shopify returns directly in SimpliSent
SimpliSent does not yet support full automatic shipping label purchases, but you can auto-generate label drafts for incoming Shopify orders.
Managing the Integration
- View sync status and history
- Pause or resume synchronization
- Reconnect if credentials expire
- Monitor and resolve sync errors
Troubleshooting
Common issues and solutions:- Connection failures – Ensure store URL and credentials are correct
- Permission errors – Reinstall the app and grant required permissions
- Sync delays – Orders may take a few minutes; check sync history in SimpliSent
- Missing orders – Verify status filters and confirm the order was placed in Shopify
Once your store is connected, all future orders will automatically sync into SimpliSent — ready for label creation, automation, and return processing.
