Shopify, or another owner
Your choiceProduct notices and the catch-up apply only while Shopify owns your catalog. If you give the catalog to another owner, Shopify's product changes are ignored.
Source of truthBring your store in once. After that, Shopify tells us when a product changes, so your catalog in MarketplaceHub follows your store without a new export.
| Variant | SKU | Price | Stock | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Natural | LT-NAT | £28.00 | 12 | Unprocessed |
| Black | LT-BLK | £28.00 | 7 | Unprocessed |

Importing is read-only. Your store is not changed.
Each variant lands as its own product, with its SKU, price, stock and images. Only active products are imported.
Import every product, or pick collections and tags. Before you start, a scan shows how many products are in scope, and how many your skip rules would drop.
A big catalog is read with Shopify's bulk export. It is faster than asking for a few products at a time.
Your Shopify product types become folders in your category tree. Shopify's own product category is kept, and AI uses it to match each product to a marketplace category.
Your store is written to only if you choose to publish products to it.
Turn on Auto-Sync and we register product notices with Shopify, then run a first import.
When a product is created or updated, Shopify tells us. The product lands in your import workspace as an unprocessed row.
Delete a product in Shopify and we take down the marketplace listing it created. Its rows leave the import workspace too.
A notice can be missed. So we also read what changed since the last sync, twice an hour, for every store with Auto-Sync on.

Shopify can own your catalog, or share the work with your other sources.

Source of truthShopify is one source among several. You can bring in CSV or URL feeds too, and join extra data onto the products Shopify brings.
Data import and feed linkingA missed notice is caught up. A delete is retried. A new product lands in your import workspace first.
Every 30 minutes we read what changed since the last sync. A change Shopify did not tell us about still arrives.
Taking down a listing runs as a job that is retried. If something fails, the delete is tried again.
A new or changed product lands in your import workspace first. Price and stock follow a separate path: Shopify inventory sync.
What is imported, how changes arrive, and what happens when you delete a product.
