SaaS Publishers

Catalyst Signals currently offers default SAAS publisher support to Shopify.

To receive SaaS product events in Signals, it is mandatory to provide the API token and the product’s account ID during the publisher creation process. Ensure that you have granted the necessary scopes before generating the API token.

For Shopify, choose all the following scopes while creating the API token:

• read_orders
• read_customers
• read_fulfillments
• read_inventory
• read_products
• read_product_listings
• read_payment_terms

This is essential for the flawless functioning of the default events supported in Shopify.
