OVERVIEW

The Shopify Admin API gives you full access to your store's products, orders, customers, inventory, and more. Build custom storefronts, sync inventory with other systems, automate order fulfillment, and generate reports.

Authentication uses a custom header (X-Shopify-Access-Token). The base URL includes your store's subdomain and the API version. Shopify uses API versioning by date (e.g., 2024-01). Each version is supported for 12 months.
