# Shopify API: products, collections, and variant data from any store

Anysite now provides structured access to Shopify store data — products, collections, variants, pricing, and inventory — via four ready-made endpoints. The full endpoint family is live at [anysite.io/endpoints/shopify/](https://anysite.io/endpoints/shopify/).

## What data is available

Shopify powers a large share of direct-to-consumer e-commerce. Until now, accessing that data programmatically required either a Shopify app with per-store OAuth approval or manual scraping. The Anysite Shopify API reads from publicly available storefront pages and returns clean, structured JSON — one POST request, no app registration, no per-merchant setup.

The four endpoints cover the two main data surfaces on any Shopify store:

### Products

Two endpoints for product data:

- **POST /api/shopify/products** — full product record by store domain and product handle or URL. Returns title, brand, product_type, tags, description, images, options, and a full variants array. Each variant carries price, list_price, currency, SKU, barcode, availability flag, inventory_quantity, inventory_policy, weight, and shipping flags.
- **POST /api/shopify/products/search** — list all products from a store by domain. Same product fields as the single-product endpoint. The `count` parameter controls how many products to return.

### Collections

Two endpoints for collection data:

- **POST /api/shopify/collections** — collection metadata by store domain and collection handle or URL. Returns title, description, image, product_count, and timestamps.
- **POST /api/shopify/collections/products** — products within a collection. Returns the same variant and pricing detail as the single-product endpoint, limited to the requested count.

## Common use cases

A competitive pricing monitor can be assembled with a single call to `/products/search` per competitor store on a scheduled basis. The variant-level `price` and `list_price` fields expose both the current price and the original list price, so markdown detection is straightforward without any additional data processing.

Catalog synchronization workflows use `/products/search` to enumerate all products in a supplier store, then call `/products` on any SKU that has changed since the last sync. The `updated_at` field on each product and variant makes change detection reliable.

Inventory monitoring pipelines check the `inventory_quantity` and `available` fields on variants to detect stockouts and restocks without polling the front-end UI. The `inventory_policy` field distinguishes stores that allow overselling from those that do not.

## Authentication and pricing

All Shopify endpoints use POST requests with an `access-token` header — the same token used for every other Anysite endpoint. No Shopify partner registration, no app approval process, no per-store OAuth flow. Each endpoint's credit price is listed on the endpoint page. The endpoints are available on all Anysite plans starting with the Starter tier ($49/month, 15,000 credits).

## Get started

The endpoint overview page at [anysite.io/endpoints/shopify/](https://anysite.io/endpoints/shopify/) has curl examples for all four endpoints and a full parameter reference. API parameter details are at [docs.anysite.io](https://docs.anysite.io/?ref=anysite.io).

If you are building e-commerce data workflows — price monitoring, catalog sync, inventory tracking, or competitive research — the Shopify endpoints provide the structured data layer without the per-store app approval overhead.
