Hi! Can I access the same server my store is in? (currently through Shopify).

I want to create an app that will watch orders coming in and get that data and throw it to third-party API (dropshipping) then once the dropshipping agent fullfilled their order, the app will update the orders on my Shopify account. I believe I need to create a private app and host it somewhere but can I use the same server as my Shopify store

Also, if you could please direct me to the link where I can study how to watch store object movements please. Thank you

You will need to host your private App on your own server. Heroku is a popular choice.
