Shopify subscription event tracking
6 min
overview if your shopify store sells subscriptions, chord can track subscription lifecycle events such as creation, cancellation, and payment failures these events are delivered to chord via shopify webhooks, similar to docid\ xbl7zbqe14bt7gbtml0un however, shopify restricts subscription contract webhook events to the app that originally created the contract (such as shopify subscriptions or recharge) because of this limitation, the chord webhook source cannot listen to subscription specific webhook events directly instead, shopify flow is used as a workaround to forward these events to chord prerequisites before configuring subscription event tracking, confirm the following chord has access to your shopify store you have access to your chord workspace docid\ xbl7zbqe14bt7gbtml0un is already configured (admin api key and webhook source are in place) https //apps shopify com/flow is installed on your shopify store if you have questions about any of these prerequisites, contact mailto\ help\@chord co supported subscription events true 244,244 left unhandled content type left unhandled content type left unhandled content type left unhandled content type left unhandled content type left unhandled content type left unhandled content type left unhandled content type left unhandled content type left unhandled content type left unhandled content type left unhandled content type installation step 1 install shopify flow https //apps shopify com/flow is a free automation app from shopify it may already be installed on your store — your chord implementation team may have set it up during provisioning if you are unsure, contact mailto\ help\@chord co step 2 import flows your chord implementation team will provide three flow files \[chord] subscription contract created flow \[chord] subscription updated (cancelled / expired / paused) flow \[chord] subscription payment failed flow to import each flow in your shopify admin, go to apps > shopify flow click import flow upload the flow file and confirm the import repeat for each of the three flow files step 3 verify the flows in shopify flow, review each imported workflow to confirm it is active trigger a test subscription event in your store (e g , create a test subscription) in your chord workspace, navigate to the shopify webhook source and open the debugger tab confirm that the expected subscription events appear support if you encounter issues configuring subscription flows or do not see subscription events in your chord workspace, contact mailto\ help\@chord co with details about the problem
