Create a contact in Front when an order is paid in Shopify

When an order is paid in Shopify, create a contact in Front.

Start the 14-day trial, then find it under Templates → Library. It installs into the client you choose, switched off, with its checklist.

UsesBeta

Every step, in order

When it happens in the first app, the step runs in the second, with the client’s own account.

An order is paid
An order whose payment went through, checked every 5 minutes; once per order. The app needs the read_orders scope.
Create a contact
A contact with an email handle.

What each client fills in

Nothing. It needs only the accounts it connects to.

The accounts it needs

Each is the client’s own, stored encrypted and never copied between clients. Until one is added the client’s checklist shows it, and nothing runs.

  • Only for a store that already has an admin-created custom app. In the client’s Shopify admin: Apps → Develop apps → the app: its Admin API scopes must include write_customers and read_orders; the token is under API credentials (shown once when it is made; if it is no longer shown, generate a new one).

  • Front

    In the client’s Front: Settings → Developers → API tokens → Create API token with the Shared resources namespace and the Read and Write permissions (Write for the contact step, Read for the triggers, which list events).

After you install it

It lands switched off. The client’s checklist holds exactly this:

  1. Connect the client’s Shopify, for “An order is paid”
  2. Connect the client’s Front, for “Create a contact”

Thrum is cooking.

Get early access and you’ll be among the first in. Early members get a launch perk.
