Hi,

 

Do you know how I can connect a database management platform to my Shopify store database. I want to retrieve my data by connecting with host/port/username/password to the Shopify MySQL database and then use SQL. I do not want to use REST API or GraphQL.

 

Best,

David

I don't think you are going to have luck with that.

 

Shopify is a closed system, the ONLY way to access anything in shopify is through the API's. You will never gain access to Shopify's underlying database... ever... I think hell will first feeze over before they give anyone access.

 

Cheers,

 

Gary
