Shiptheory integration for Shopify

Shiptheory is an action-only connector: Bindato books shipments and reads their status, letting Shiptheory's rules engine pick the carrier and service.

Triggers and actions

What Shiptheory can do in a flow

Declared in the connector's code and validated when the engine boots. Each trigger names how it receives events.

Triggers

0
Action-only connector
Shiptheory does not start flows. Events come from another connector — the store, usually — and the flow calls Shiptheory's actions.

Setup

Connecting Shiptheory

Three steps from the dashboard. The connection test is a real call, and its result is stored on the connection.

  1. 1

    Add your Shiptheory credentials

    Enter the email and password of your Shiptheory account. Bindato exchanges them for a short-lived bearer token on each call.

  2. 2

    Bindato tests the connection

    Bindato performs a real token login with the email and password you supplied, so the test proves the credentials rather than a cached session.

  3. 3

    Install a bundle or build a flow

    Pick a bundle that uses Shiptheory, connect the other system, and confirm its settings tab where it ships one. Or start a flow from one of the triggers listed above.

Questions

About Shiptheory

Why does Shiptheory have no triggers?
By design. Orders come from the Shopify connector, Bindato books the shipment in Shiptheory, then reads it back and writes tracking to Shopify through the Shopify connector's Create fulfillment action. Nothing needs to originate on the Shiptheory side.
Does Bindato choose the carrier?
No, unless a flow passes a specific delivery service id. Omitting it lets Shiptheory's rules engine assign the carrier and service, which is what the connector is scoped to rely on.
Is there a Shopify + Shiptheory bundle?
The connector is built and its bundle is listed as coming soon; its flow templates are not yet published.
