Shopify Deploy Integration Skill

Shopify Deploy Integration

Overview

Deploy Shopify apps to popular hosting platforms. Covers environment configuration, webhook URL setup, and Shopify CLI deployment for extensions.

Prerequisites

Shopify app tested locally with shopify app dev
Platform CLI installed (vercel, fly, or gcloud)
Production API credentials ready
shopify.app.toml configured

Instructions

Step 1: Deploy App with Shopify CLI

# Shopify CLI handles extension deployment and app config sync
shopify app deploy

# This uploads:
# - Theme app extensions
# - Function extensions
# - App configuration (URLs, scopes, webhooks)
# But NOT your web app — you host that separately

Step 2: Vercel Deployment

Set environment variables, configure vercel.json for webhooks and function timeouts, and update shopify.app.toml with the Vercel URL.

See Vercel Deployment for the complete configuration.

Step 3: Fly.io Deployment

Configure fly.toml with health checks and min-machines, set secrets via fly secrets set, and deploy.

See Fly.io Deployment for the complete configuration.

Step 4: Google Cloud Run Deployment

Use a multi-stage Dockerfile for minimal image size, deploy with gcloud run deploy, and configure secrets via Secret Manager.

See Cloud Run Deployment for Dockerfile and deploy commands.

Step 5: Post-Deploy Verification

Run health checks, verify webhook endpoints return 401 (no HMAC), test OAuth start, and sync app config.

See Post-Deploy Verification for the complete verification script.

Output

App deployed to production hosting
Environment variables securely configured
Webhook endpoints accessible via HTTPS
Health check passing
App URLs synced to Shopify Partner Dashboard

Error Handling

| Issue | Cause | Solution | |-------|-------|----------| | OAuth redirect mismatch | App URL not updated | Update redirect_urls in shopify.app.toml and deploy | | Webhooks not received | URL not HTTPS or unreachable | Verify public URL, check DNS | | Cold start timeout | Serverless function slow | Set min instances to 1 | | CSP frame-ancestors error | Missing header | Add CSP header for *.myshopify.com | | shopify app deploy fails | CLI token invalid | Regenerate at partners.shopify.com |
