Connect Shopify to inriver PIM to sync SKUs, attributes, images, and localization automatically, so your teams publish faster and shoppers see consistent info.
• Product records, variants, and selected attributes are exported from inriver and mapped to Shopify products, variants, options, and metafields.
• Category and collection relationships are translated from inriver structures to Shopify collections or tag-based rules, depending on the chosen model.
• Assets and media references are synchronized by pushing image URLs or binary uploads, with ordering and alt text mapped when available.
• Localization data is mapped to Shopify market and language structures, with locale-specific fields routed to the correct translated values.
• Delta sync logic sends only changed entities based on timestamps or change flags, while full syncs are supported for initial loads and reindexing.
• Validation rules handle required fields, data types, and length limits before write operations, with failures logged and retried based on error type.
• Sync ownership is controlled per field group, keeping price, inventory, and order data in Shopify or the ERP, while product content stays owned by inriver.
• Integration events and API responses are logged with entity IDs for traceability across create, update, and archive flows.

We map inriver entities and attributes to Shopify products, variants, and metafields, then sync via inriver APIs and scheduled jobs or webhooks. Updates publish only when your inriver workflow marks them as approved.
Typical sync includes titles, descriptions, prices where applicable, images, category tags, variant options, and Shopify metafields for richer specs. The exact mapping depends on your catalog model and theme needs.
Yes – we set up per-market mappings for languages, currencies, and channel-specific attributes, and push the right content to the right Shopify store. This keeps localized PDP content consistent without duplicating manual work.
We define field ownership rules so Shopify-only fields stay editable while PIM-owned fields stay governed by inriver. You can also lock edits in Shopify for specific attributes to avoid drift.
We validate required attributes, image presence, variant completeness, and SEO fields before publishing to Shopify. Failed items are flagged back to inriver so teams fix issues upstream, not on the storefront.
