Build an online store

Give Agent your products from a source you already have: a Google Sheet (name, price, description, product code, stock) and photos in Google Drive. Agent sets up the Shopify store, imports products, prices, descriptions, and images, and wires checkout and payments. The storefront design and frontend live in Replit, not in a Shopify theme. Payments go through Shopify checkout, so you don’t need a separate Stripe connector.

​

Best for

• Founders who need a store from a catalog they already keep in Sheets and Drive.
• Product designers who need a custom Replit storefront with Shopify as the commerce backend.

​

Connectors

​

Before you start

Have a Sheet with one row per product (name, price, description, product code, stock) and a Drive folder of photos named so Agent can match them to rows. Connect Sheets, Drive, and Shopify. Agent can provision Shopify from chat if you don’t have a store yet. Place a test order before you share the store.

​

Prompt the agent

​

What to expect

If needed, Agent asks you to connect Google Sheets and Google Drive to read your catalog and product photos. Shopify setup follows separately. Agent imports the catalog into Shopify, then builds a Replit storefront that reads products from Shopify and sends customers to Shopify checkout. Spot-check a few products against the Sheet (price, copy, image) and place a test order. Use Shopify test payments, confirm the cart total matches the Sheet, and check that checkout stays on Shopify.

Troubleshooting

• Photos don’t match products: name Drive files by product code (CODE.jpg) and ask Agent to skip any row that has no photo.
• Prices or copy don’t match the Sheet: confirm one row per product (name, price, description, product code, stock) and spot-check a few items after import.
• Checkout isn’t Shopify, or the storefront is a theme: the customer-facing pages should live in Replit. Payments go through Shopify checkout. Place a test order before you share the store.
