Common Use Cases
1. Automate Product Listings
Create new products or update existing ones based on inventory changes or new arrivals.
// Create a new product
use_mcp_tool({
server_name: "shopify",
tool_name: "createProduct",
arguments: {
title: "Limited Edition Hoodie",
descriptionHtml: "<p>A comfortable and stylish hoodie.</p>",
vendor: "Fashion Co.",
productType: "Apparel",
tags: "hoodie, limited",
status: "ACTIVE"
}
});
2. Customer Relationship Management
Retrieve customer details, update their tags, or view their order history.
// Add a VIP tag to a customer
use_mcp_tool({
server_name: "shopify",
tool_name: "update-customer",
arguments: {
id: "6276879810626",
tags: ["VIP"]
}
});
3. Order Fulfillment and Tracking
Monitor new orders, update their status, or retrieve specific order details.
// Get all pending orders
use_mcp_tool({
server_name: "shopify",
tool_name: "get-orders",
arguments: {
status: "OPEN",
limit: 20
}
});
4. Inventory Management
Integrate with external systems to update product quantities or availability.
// (Example: This would typically involve a custom tool or a combination of existing tools)
// Update product quantity after a sale in an external system
// This would require a tool to update inventory, which is not directly available in the current MCP server.
// A custom tool could be built using the Shopify Admin API to achieve this.
