Connecting and refreshing your Shopify channel
📝Currently, you are only able to connect one Shopify store to Buffer at a time.
To see a step-by-step guide and troubleshooting steps, checkout the article: Connect your channels to Buffer.
At this time, Buffer is not approved as a "listed" app by Shopify as our platform is not an extension that can be downloaded and connected directly to a Shopify store. However, we've built our app in accordance with Shopify's API License and Terms of Use and we adhere to the principles set out here in order to continue having access to their API.
If your connected Shopify account requires a refresh, check out the article Refreshing a channel in Buffer.
