Shopify API Monitoring

Monitor your Shopify integration.

Shopify powers many e-commerce stores. Its APIs are used for inventory sync, orders and third-party integrations.

Monitor your Shopify endpoints to avoid desynchronization and errors.

Why Monitor Shopify

  • Rate limiting: Shopify has strict limits (40 req/sec). Exceed them and you're blocked.
  • Synchronization: an API outage can desync your inventory or orders.
  • Webhooks: Shopify webhooks can fail silently.

What to Monitor

  • Admin API: main endpoint for store management.
  • Storefront API: public API for headless storefronts.
  • Webhooks: verify reception with a heartbeat.
