Once your store is connected, the AI gains three actions it can call during conversations. Each action is enabled by default and can be toggled independently.

Available actions

The AI looks up an order by its order number (e.g. #1042, UK-1003).What the customer sees: order status, line items, fulfillment and tracking information, shipping address — the same data a rep would read from the Shopify admin.Privacy guard: the AI verifies that the customer’s email matches the email on the order before revealing details. If the emails don’t match, the AI declines the request.Requires the read_orders scope.
The AI searches your product catalog by keywords. It uses Shopify’s native product search and returns results ranked by relevance.What the customer sees: matching product names, prices, availability, and descriptions. Useful for pre-sale questions like “do you have black running shoes in size 10?”Requires the read_products scope.
The AI retrieves general information about your store — name, description, currency, shipping countries, and supported payment methods.What the customer sees: factual answers about your store’s policies, accepted currencies, and shipping regions. Helpful for questions like “do you ship to Germany?” or “which payment methods do you accept?”Requires the read_products scope.

Toggling actions

Each action can be enabled or disabled per organization. Disabled actions are not available to the AI during conversations. Toggle actions in Settings → Integrations → Shopify under Actions Settings:
ActionDefaultWhen to disable
Get Order DetailsEnabledIf you handle order inquiries through a separate system or want the AI to hand off order questions to a rep.
Search ProductsEnabledIf your catalog is private or you prefer the AI not to recommend products.
Get Shop DetailsEnabledRarely needed — only if shop-level data should not be shared in conversations.

Multi-store behavior

How the AI handles actions depends on the number of connected stores:
  • Single store: every action runs against that store directly. No store selection needed.
  • Multiple stores: the AI identifies the correct store from context — the customer’s order number prefix, the store they mention, or the email match. When the customer asks about an order from a specific store, the AI routes the lookup to the right one.
Using distinct order number prefixes per store (e.g. UK- for your UK store, NL- for your Dutch store) makes multi-store routing more reliable. Configure prefixes in your Shopify admin under Settings → General → Order processing.
