Connect your store to Inboxy
How Shopify, Salla, Zid, WooCommerce and Easy Orders connect to Inboxy, what you need for each, which permissions they use and what each store can do.
Content last checked:
Connecting a store lets Inboxy see orders, customers and products, so the AI assistant can answer from your catalog, your team sees a customer’s orders beside the conversation, and order confirmation, order updates and cart reminders can run. Inboxy works without a store too; you can connect one any time.
Where to start
- In Easy Setup, the store step asks “Which platform runs your store?” Pick your platform and its real install steps appear.
- Later, open “E-Commerce” and press “Connect a store” (or “Connect another store”).
- Only the account admin can connect the store.
The five platforms
| Platform | How you connect | What you need | Guide |
|---|---|---|---|
| “Shopify” | “App install” | the store owner, or staff allowed to install apps | Connect Shopify |
| “Salla” | “Salla App Store app” | permission to install apps in Salla | Connect Salla |
| “Zid” | “Secure sign-in with Zid” | the store owner’s Zid account | Connect Zid |
| “WooCommerce” | “WordPress plugin” | administrator access to WordPress | Connect WooCommerce |
| “Easy Orders” | “Secure connect with Easy Orders” | an Easy Orders seller account | Connect Easy Orders |
What each store can do in Inboxy
| Feature | Shopify | Salla | Zid | WooCommerce | Easy Orders |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Orders, customers and products sync | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Order confirmation | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Order update messages | All six | All six | Four of six | All six | Five of six |
| Abandoned-cart reminders | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | No |
| “Discount codes” | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | No |
Permissions: what Inboxy asks for, and where you can see it
Each platform shows its own approval screen listing the permissions before you accept, and each guide below says what Inboxy uses them for. After connecting, the store page in “E-Commerce” shows “Granted permissions”, in plain words:
- “Read store details (name, currency)”
- “Read orders”
- “Update order status when the customer confirms or cancels”
- “Read products, prices and stock”
- “Read customers”
- “Read abandoned carts”
- “Create discount codes”
- “Receive live events (new order, status change)”
Only Shopify and Salla report which permissions were granted. For Zid, WooCommerce and Easy Orders the platform does not report them, so Inboxy shows “Not confirmed” instead of claiming a permission it cannot prove. A permission that is requested but missing shows “Not granted — re-authorize”.
After you connect
- We are syncing products and orders now; the sync finishes in the background. You can finish setup.
- The store page shows “Connection status”, the connection method, when the last event arrived and a “Sync” history. “Sync now” runs a sync on demand.
- Set up the messages: order confirmation, order updates and cart reminders.
Disconnecting
Only managers can disconnect a store. Inboxy asks you to type the store domain to confirm, and disconnecting stops the following at once. You can reconnect later.
- “What stops now”: “Receiving new orders and events”; “Order confirmation messages”; “Order update messages”; “Abandoned-cart reminders”; “Creating discount codes”; “Updating the AI assistant's product knowledge”.
- “What is kept”: “Conversations with customers”; “Message templates approved by Meta”; “Your settings, restored when you reconnect”.
- Disconnecting in Inboxy does not remove Inboxy from your platform’s own dashboard. Remove it there too if you want.
