See the [Shopify Plus app](https://docs.getmesa.com/apps/shopify-plus/) for authenticating Plus-only API’s.

## Configure

### Retrieving Shopify Data After a Delay Step

When using a [Delay](https://docs.getmesa.com/tools/delay/) step in your workflow your Shopify data may be altered or updated while the delay processes. Add a Shopify Retrieve action after a delay step to ensure you're referencing the most up-to-date information for the endpoint you're working with.

This would be beneficial whenever you use a Delay step while working with endpoints like Shopify Customers, Orders, Products, or Metafields.
