Set up Shopify MCP in Claude Code

Interact with Shopify Admin GraphQL API to manage products, orders, customers, inventory, and store data from your AI editor.

1

Locate the config file

Claude Code reads MCP server configuration from the following file:

~/.claude.json

Create this file if it does not already exist.

2

Add the configuration

You can configure Shopify MCP using the CLI command or by editing the config file directly.

Option A: CLI command

bash
claude mcp add shopify-mcp -e SHOPIFY_ACCESS_TOKEN=YOUR_SHOPIFY_ACCESS_TOKEN -e SHOPIFY_STORE_DOMAIN=YOUR_SHOPIFY_STORE_DOMAIN -- npx -y @shopify/dev-mcp

Option B: Config file

json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "shopify-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@shopify/dev-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "SHOPIFY_ACCESS_TOKEN": "YOUR_SHOPIFY_ACCESS_TOKEN",
        "SHOPIFY_STORE_DOMAIN": "YOUR_SHOPIFY_STORE_DOMAIN"
      }
    }
  }
}
