How to Grant Elevar Customer Data Access from Shopify

Overview

As of 3.15, Elevar can send more accurate new vs returning purchaser data with your server purchase events.

The Old Way:

  • Pulls data from Shopify's liquid or web pixel property
  • Not consistent data due to Shopify's 15-minute delay in updating after a new order has been create
  • Web Pixel only populates a value when a user is logged in
  • Only sends data for online store orders

The New Way:

  • Pulls order count data offline directly from Shopify
  • 95%+ accuracy when compared to Shopify
  • Sends data regardless of whether the user is logged in
  • Sends data for offline store orders (like POS, recurring, etc)
  • *Note: affects server-side events only
