Shopify Store

The Dynamic Yield Shopify app enables you to quickly implement Dynamic Yield on your Shopify website. The Dynamic Yield app sets up:

When you implement Dynamic Yield with the plugin, you can't change the events, script, context, and cookie consent implementation. These are standardized and managed by the app. If, for any reason, you want more control over these aspects of the implementation, consider not implementing Dynamic Yield with the app.

The app is compatible with every version and every theme of Shopify Online (web stores only).

Configure the app

First, install the Dynamic Yield app from your Shopify store:
https://apps.shopify.com/dynamic-yield-v2

Now, on the app page, implement Dynamic Yield on your site:

  1. Paste your Dynamic Yield section ID. The section ID is a 7-digit number that appears in the URL of any page in the Dynamic Yield console, starting with 8 or 9.
  2. Enable DY Embed Block in your theme.

That’s it. Now, the Dynamic Yield script and page context run on every page of your store, and e-commerce events are fired when users make purchases, add products to the cart, and so on.

Consent to cookies

Active Cookie Consent means you can serve personalized experiences to those customers who indicated that they consent to cookies (and non-personalized experiences to those who did not actively consent). The app automatically runs the code snippet that's required to indicate Active Cookie Consent. The consent status is not managed by the app or by Dynamic Yield. The app reads it directly from the Shopify native Customer API.

Sync your product catalog with Dynamic Yield

A synced product feed enables capabilities like recommendations, segmenting based on product engagement, social proof tactics, and more.

To enable the sync, you must enter the AWS S3 access and secret keys. To get these credentials:

  1. Go to the Experience OS console.
  2. Click Assets, and then click Data Feeds.
  3. Click Add New to create a new Product Feed. If you already have a Product Feed, you'll need to edit it.
  4. In the Feed Source, select Sync a file via Amazon S3.
  1. Click Create a bucket. The Access Key and Secret Key are displayed.
  2. Copy these credentials and paste them into the Shopify App configuration:
  1. Click Sync Entire Catalog Now. From now on, the feed will be synced every 6 hours.

Product feed columns

You can choose what to sync to Dynamic Yield. You can use the product attributes you sync in translations, rules in recommendation strategies, targeting based on engagement with these product attributes, and more. You can decide if you want to sync the following:

  • The mandatory column, as well as descriptions and keywords:
Product Feed ColumnShopify Attribute (Recommended)
skuVariant ID
group_idProduct ID
nameTitle
urlOnline store URL
image_urlFeatured image URL
priceVariant price
categoriesA list of all product collection names
in_stockVariant availability
descriptionDescription
keywordsA list of all product tags
  • Custom: You decide which columns to onboard. In this mode, you must provide JavaScript code to transform any information from the Shopify Product Object into a flat CSV that is generated periodically and synced with Dynamic Yield. While you input the code, you can click Download Preview File to see the result of your code in JSON format. Click the gear icon or select the product ID to preview the parsing on a specific product.
Shopify object values

You can use this schema that exists in Shopify's object (product object, variant object, and collection object) or download a JSON example with product data. See below the full list of product attributes you can use:
