Shopify CI Integration

Overview

Set up CI/CD pipelines for Shopify apps using GitHub Actions, including API version compatibility testing, Shopify CLI deployment, and extension validation.

Prerequisites

• GitHub repository with Actions enabled
• Shopify Partner account with CLI access
• Test store access token for integration tests

Instructions

Step 1: GitHub Actions Workflow

Create a workflow with lint, test, API version check, and deploy jobs.

See GitHub Actions Workflow for the complete .github/workflows/shopify-ci.yml file.

Step 2: Configure Secrets

# Store these in GitHub repository secrets
gh secret set SHOPIFY_API_KEY --body "your_api_key"
gh secret set SHOPIFY_API_SECRET --body "your_api_secret"
gh secret set SHOPIFY_TEST_STORE --body "your-dev-store.myshopify.com"
gh secret set SHOPIFY_TEST_TOKEN --body "shpat_test_token"
gh secret set SHOPIFY_PARTNERS_TOKEN --body "your_partners_cli_token"

Step 3: Integration Test Structure

Write integration tests that verify store connectivity, required scopes, and rate limit compliance. Tests skip automatically when SHOPIFY_ACCESS_TOKEN is not set.

See Integration Test Structure for the complete Vitest test file.

Output

• CI pipeline with lint, typecheck, unit tests, and integration tests
• API version deprecation monitoring
• Automated deployment via Shopify CLI
• Integration tests running against a test store

Error Handling

Issue	Cause	Solution
SHOPIFY_PARTNERS_TOKEN invalid	Token expired	Regenerate at partners.shopify.com
Integration tests timeout	Rate limited	Add delays or use test store with Plus
API version check fails	Deprecated version	Update to latest supported version
Deploy fails	App config mismatch	Run shopify app config push first

Examples

Shopify CLI Token for CI

# Generate a CLI token for CI (no interactive login needed)
# Go to: partners.shopify.com > Settings > CLI tokens
# Create a new token and save as SHOPIFY_PARTNERS_TOKEN secret
