Install the Gorgias App on Shopify

Test Shopify Integration
Open a ticket in Gorgias and observe if the customer and order information from Shopify is displayed in the sidebar. This visibility indicates that the integration is successfully pulling data from your Shopify store.
Install the Gorgias Plugin on WooCommerce
In your WordPress dashboard, navigate to 'Plugins' > 'Add New' and search for 'Gorgias.' Install and activate the plugin to begin the integration process. Ensure you have the necessary permissions to modify plugins on your WordPress site.
Connect Your WooCommerce Store to Gorgias
In Gorgias, go to 'Settings' > 'Integrations' > 'WooCommerce' and click 'Add WooCommerce store.' Follow the instructions to generate API keys in WooCommerce by navigating to WooCommerce > Settings > Advanced > REST API. Enter these keys in Gorgias to connect your store.
Configure WooCommerce Integration Settings
In Gorgias, configure settings to determine what data is imported, such as customer profiles, order history, and ticket automation. You can also set up macros and rules to streamline support workflows, enhancing efficiency in handling customer inquiries.
Verify WooCommerce Connection
