Unique API Features for Shopify Plus

API stands for Application Programming Interface and allows developers to create applications, tools, and services and connect them to virtually any system or software. With Shopify Plus, an enhanced version of the original Shopify platform, some features stand out from the standard Shopify. Here’s a list of some of the unique API features available exclusively to Shopify Plus merchants.

Advanced webhooks: Webhooks give Shopify Plus merchants the ability to create automatic events that trigger specific actions. Advanced webhooks are unique to Shopify Plus because they provide the ability to customize operations at various levels of detail and extend webhooks functionality to multiple applications and events.

Access to the Plus Partner Network: Merchants using Shopify Plus gain access to the Plus Partner Network. Members have access to exclusive services, including custom integrations and expert support.

Shopify Flow: Shopify Plus sellers have access to Shopify Flow’s automated workflow automation and approval system. This allows sellers to quickly and easily automate routine business processes and save time in the approval process.

Multiple Account Access for Employees: This feature allows Shopify Plus merchants to have more than one account login for their employees. This gives team members access to their individual accounts, allowing them to quickly and easily switch between tasks without having to constantly log in and out.

Fine-grained permissions: Shopify Plus sellers can customize and restrict access to certain parts of their store with granular permissions. This allows sellers to prevent certain team members from accessing information they don’t need, ensuring the security of their store.

Increased API rate limits: Merchants using Shopify Plus have access to increased API rate limits, allowing them to make more API calls during specific periods. This is invaluable for merchants with large stores with multiple products or customers, as it provides them with enough API resources to handle a large volume of work.

Shopify Plus is a great option for merchants who need access to exclusive API features. With the features listed here, sellers can customize and automate operations, increase staff productivity, and ensure the security of their store.
