Shopify API Integration System

Automated API integration system for Shopify that reduced manual product update time by 15+ hours per month and improved synchronization speed by 60%.

Shopify API Integration System

Project Overview

Developed a comprehensive Shopify API integration system that automates product management, inventory synchronization, and order processing. The system features robust error handling, retry logic with exponential backoff, and comprehensive logging. It processes bulk product updates, manages inventory levels across multiple locations, and synchronizes data with external systems including BC365. The solution significantly reduced manual work while improving data accuracy and processing speed.

Challenges

  • Managing API rate limits and implementing proper throttling
  • Handling large product catalogs with thousands of SKUs
  • Ensuring data consistency between Shopify and external systems
  • Implementing robust error recovery for failed API calls

Solutions

  • Implemented exponential backoff retry logic for API calls
  • Created batch processing system for bulk operations
  • Built comprehensive logging and monitoring system
  • Developed automated data validation and reconciliation processes

Results & Impact

Reduced manual product update time by 15+ hours per month
Improved synchronization speed by 60%
Achieved 99.5% data accuracy across systems
Processed 10,000+ product updates daily
