Before You Install the Recipe

You must perform the following configuration tasks on your Shopify and Salesforce instances in order to successfully connect to these external systems using Oracle Integration and transfer orders between them.

Configure Shopify

To configure Shopify, see Prerequisites for Creating a Connection in Using the Shopify Adapter with Oracle Integration 3.

Configure Salesforce

To access Salesforce from Oracle Integration and create orders, you must perform certain configurations on your Salesforce instance.

You must create a user account on Salesforce for Oracle Integration. You’ll use the credentials of this user account while configuring the Salesforce connection in Oracle Integration.

In addition, you must identify your Salesforce instance type and your current Salesforce API version. Finally, you must create a custom field for order and account records.

Note:

The steps provided here apply to the Salesforce Classic UI. If you’re using the Lightning Experience UI on your Salesforce instance, switch to the Classic UI. See Toggle or switch between Lightning Experience and Salesforce Classic.
