You need to create a custom access key in order for SyncWith to get Shopify to Google Sheets (for example, your list of customers, recent orders or products).
 
1. Log in to your Shopify admin screen.
 
2. Navigate to the Apps section in the sidebar
 
3. Click the Manage private apps link

7. Grant access to the resources you want. Generally, merchants need access to Customers, Orders and Products for most tasks.

You can now use this API key to access your Shopify data with SyncWith. When prompted by SyncWith to authenticate, select the API key method and paste this key. If you use our built in connectors such as our Shopify Orders to Google Sheets integration then you won’t need an API key, instead you can connect via OAuth easily.
