Connect AfterShip to Shopify or Shopify Plus to send branded tracking updates, surface delivery exceptions early, and cut “where is my order” support load.
• Shopify orders and fulfillments are synchronized to AfterShip as shipments using fulfillment IDs, tracking numbers, and carrier codes.
• Carrier detection and tracking number normalization are handled in AfterShip; mapped carrier values are stored against the related Shopify fulfillment.
• Tracking milestones (in transit, out for delivery, delivered, failed attempt, exception) are ingested from carrier webhooks and recorded per shipment.
• Shipment status updates are routed back to Shopify as fulfillment tracking updates and order-level status references where supported by Shopify APIs.
• Partial fulfillments and split shipments are represented as separate shipment records, each linked to the originating Shopify order.
• Delta sync logic sends only new or changed fulfillments, with retries and error logs for rejected payloads (invalid tracking format, unknown carrier, or missing links).
