I reached out to Zapier to express the need as you suggested. Hopefully, they have the structure in place to make this work quickly.
Topic summary
AccountEdge–Shopify web order processing stopped working; clicking the connector returns HTTP 404 (resource not available), and the app no longer appears in the Shopify App Store. Recent posts say even with a new AccountEdge version, syncing is “still in the works” and not available.
Cause (per AccountEdge): In early 2022 Shopify stopped allowing integrations with non‑web‑based software, breaking AccountEdge’s desktop sync. AccountEdge is developing a web‑based replacement/online connector, targeted for late 2023 or early 2024, but no firm timeline. Shopify staff advise contacting the third‑party developer since the app isn’t in the store.
Impact: Orders no longer import; earlier intermittent failures escalated to none coming through (notably around Aug 14). Manual entry creates inventory errors during peak season.
Workarounds reported:
- EasyCSV: Exports Shopify orders as CSVs (comma‑separated values) formatted for AccountEdge import; can drop files to OneDrive. Minor mapping tweaks (discounts, tips). Setup help and instructions shared.
- Exportible: Emails batched CSVs for import into AccountEdge.
- Zapier: No current Shopify→AccountEdge path; needs an API key not available for desktop. A feature request was filed to Zapier to track interest.
Open items: Confirmation of Shopify’s desktop‑integration policy; concrete release date for AccountEdge’s new connector. Discussion remains unresolved.
