Setup

  1. Connect Shopify through Shopify's Grok connector and authorize your store. Access is limited to the permissions you grant.
  2. Start with reading: stock by variant and location, orders and analytics.
  3. Add write access, like updating inventory quantities or creating products, only for jobs you've watched it do well.
  4. Pair it with a daily routine for exceptions, and approval cards for every change.

Starter prompt

Every Monday, from my Shopify store:
1. Last week's sales, orders and average order value compared with the 4 weeks before, with the arithmetic shown.
2. The top 10 products by revenue, and any product that sold out.
3. Discount codes used, and the revenue from each.
4. Three things to try this week, each tied to a number above.

Read only. Don't change products, inventory, discounts or orders.
