Connect your first Shopify app to PartnerKits

Set up your app, connect Shopify Partner data and start a sync that brings your business into focus.

October 24, 2026

Start with one app

Create a free PartnerKits account to get an allowance of one Shopify app. Your account starts with a default app, so you can begin setup without creating a workspace or choosing an analytics scope.

Add your app details

Open the setup guide and enter your app name and Shopify Partner app ID. You can also add an App Store listing URL to look up the public name and logo. Review the details before saving. The Partner app ID identifies the app whose business data you want to synchronize.

Save your Partner connection

In the Shopify connection step, enter your Partner account ID and API credentials. Use credentials authorized for your app's financial and app data. Saved credentials can be reused across the apps in your account; the data for each app stays in its own dashboard.

Start a sync

Choose a historical start date and start the app sync. Recent data is prioritized before older history is captured in the background. You can inspect progress and coverage under Data sync. Saving credentials alone does not start synchronization.

Find your first useful view

Open Overview for revenue, MRR, paying shops, net installs and recent activity. Use Customers to inspect merchant history and Reports to explore individual metrics. A dash means the metric is unavailable in current coverage, not necessarily zero.

When you have more apps to track, Premium includes up to three apps for $9 per month.
