# Connect Shopify and Cliniko

When **New customer** fires in [Shopify](https://apiant.ai/connections/shopify), your agent runs **Find patient by email** in [Cliniko](https://apiant.ai/connections/cliniko), or **Cancelled individual appointment** in Cliniko to **Add or update customer** in Shopify. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.

Shopify **17** triggers Shopify **78** actions Cliniko **17** triggers Cliniko **36** actions

What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it.

## What do you want Shopify and Cliniko to do together?

Give your AI client this address.

`https://mcp.apiant.ai`

One connection does both: ask your client to act in an app once, or have it build an automation that keeps running. Any client that takes a remote MCP server. Nothing to install. Create your free account, then sign in once in your browser.

### Set it up in your client

### Claude Code

Run this in the directory you want to work in.

`claude mcp add --transport http -s project apiant-ai https://mcp.apiant.ai`

Start Claude Code there, approve the server, and sign in in the browser page it opens.

[Claude Code guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp/claude-code)

### Claude, web and desktop

Open Customize, then Connectors, then Add custom connector, and paste the address. On Team and Enterprise an owner adds it first.

[Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp)

### Cursor

Add the address to your MCP configuration as a server URL. Cursor signs you in in your browser.

[Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp)

### Zed

Open Settings, then AI, then MCP Servers, then Add Server, then Add Remote Server.

[Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp)

### Codex and the ChatGPT desktop app

Open Settings, then MCP servers, then Add server, and choose Streamable HTTP. From the terminal, Codex takes the address with its own add command and then signs you in.

[Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp)

### Any other MCP client

Paste the address where the client asks for a remote MCP server URL, and name the server apiant-ai where it lets you. APIANT's skills reach the client over the same connection.

[Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp)

Running a clinic shop means the same person exists twice: as a patient in Cliniko and as a customer in Shopify. Connecting the two lets a new Shopify customer become a Cliniko patient, keeps contact details matched in both, and puts purchase or appointment facts where staff already look. The agent builds each scenario, tests it and keeps it running.

GraphQL-shaped: the discount entry carries DraftOrderAppliedDiscountInput fields (title/code, value, valueType FIXED_AMOUNT|PERCENTAGE, amount) so the assembled order is ready for the draftOrderCreate / draftOrderUpdate GraphQL mutation. Mirrors the REST builder that appended {code, amount, type} to order.discount_codes; same inputs (Code, Type, Amount, Order) and outputs (order, discount_codes).

Pure in-memory mutation of the draft order; no API call. Returns the updated order object and its JSON encoding.

- Action

**Order - add line item tax line**

Adds a tax line to the last line item of an in-memory order payload (builder, no API call). This op shapes the legacy order JSON structure; it does not call Shopify. Same inputs/outputs as the REST builder. Note: this never touched the Shopify REST API, so there is no GraphQL request equivalent — per-line-item user-supplied tax_lines are a REST Order-payload construct with no GraphQL counterpart (GraphQL computes tax lines server-side).

- Action

**Order - create**

Creates a new order.

- Action

**Order - initialize**

Starts a new Shopify order in your automation from the customer email, currency, billing and shipping addresses, tags, taxes and status you choose. It does not contact Shopify: pass the result through the Order - add steps (line items, discount codes) and then Order - create to place the order.

- Action

**Remove tags from customer**

Remove one or more comma-separated tags from a Shopify customer (looked up by email).

Returns the customer's numeric id and remaining tags.

- Action

**Remove tags from order**

Removes the given comma-separated tags from a Shopify order (by Order ID). Uses the GraphQL Admin API tagsRemove mutation; tags not present are ignored. Returns the order id and its remaining tags.

Questions

## Shopify and Cliniko, answered

###

### How are Shopify customers matched to Cliniko patients?

Matching is done on the email address: the agent uses Find patient by email in Cliniko, which returns a patient when exactly one has that address. If no patient matches, you can have the agent create one with Create patient instead of updating.

###

### Can appointment activity in Cliniko change something on the Shopify customer?

Yes. Triggers such as Cancelled individual appointment or New or updated patient can drive Shopify actions like Add tags to customer, Remove tags from customer or Add or update customer. The agent tests each scenario with your own records before it goes live.

###

### What can start an automation from Shopify?

Any of Shopify's 17 triggers in the catalog, including New customer, New customer (instant), New paid order and Updated customer. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.

###

### What can your agent do in Cliniko when something happens in Shopify?

Any of Cliniko's 36 actions, including Create patient, Find patient by email, Update patient and Create contact. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Can it also run from Cliniko to Shopify?

Yes. When something happens in Cliniko, your agent can act in Shopify too. This page covers both directions: Cliniko's triggers and Shopify's actions are listed here as well.

###

### Do I have to build a connector for Shopify or Cliniko?

No. Both are in the catalog with their triggers and actions. You describe the automation; your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running.

###

### Can my AI client use Shopify and Cliniko without building an automation?

Yes. With your AI client connected to APIANT, ask it to do something in either app once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. One connection covers both.

###

### What happens when something fails?

Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Is there a free plan?

Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
