Platform
Embedded Shopify admin app that pairs with your SAM tenant in under two minutes. Polaris-native UI inside Shopify admin, Shopify Managed Billing (no card data leaves Shopify), GDPR-compliant webhooks, multi-variant products via SAM product variations. Live on the Shopify App Store.
One-click install. Shopify handles the OAuth handshake. Your shop gets the app embedded in admin.
In the embedded admin's Settings tab, paste your SAM API username + token (or use the OAuth flow if your tenant supports it). Pre-production or live tenant — your choice.
Manual sync, hourly, or daily. Stock changes don't wait for the schedule — they arrive via SAM webhook within seconds. The Sync dashboard shows every run with created / updated / failed counts.
Open the Category Mapping tab. Drag SAM categories into the display buckets shoppers see. Save. Done.
Click Sync All. The full SAM catalogue lands in Shopify (artists, artworks, editions, products, variations, stock, discounts). Refresh your storefront — it's there.
Scenario: A centre wants their artist biographies and language-group metadata visible on each artwork page.
Result: Artists sync as Shopify Metaobjects. Each artwork product references its artist Metaobject. Theme templates render the biography inline — no custom app blocks needed.
Scenario: Limited edition prints (1 of 50, 2 of 50, ...) need individual stock tracking per edition number.
Result: Each edition syncs as a Shopify variant with its own SKU and stock count. When variant #7 sells via Shopify checkout, SAM marks it as sold and the storefront updates within seconds via webhook.
Scenario: Centre wants to publish a curated NAIDOC bucket without changing SAM categories.
Result: Add a NAIDOC display bucket in the Category Mapping tab. Drag relevant SAM categories in. The bucket appears as a Shopify product collection — visible to shoppers, invisible to SAM's books.
Pricing is tailored — contact us for a quote. The Shopify App Store handles the subscription billing once you're set up.
Yes. The plugin only writes to Shopify's standard product, variant, collection, and metaobject APIs — every theme renders those out of the box. We don't inject custom theme code.
Products synced from SAM stay in your Shopify catalogue (you can choose to delete them post-uninstall if you wish). Stored credentials and OAuth tokens are wiped immediately on uninstall per the GDPR shop-erasure webhook.
Yes. Discount codes from SAM mirror as Shopify discount codes via the Discounts API; the order push-back includes the discount payload so SAM's books reconcile.
Yes — built with the latest @shopify/shopify-app-remix and App Bridge 4. Polaris Web Components throughout. Session-token auth, ready for the App Store's 2026 embedded-app requirements.
