Shopify to Google Sheets Automation: Export Orders & Sync Inventory Free
Learn how to automatically stream Shopify orders, inventory deltas, and revenue data directly into Google Sheets without paying $29–$99/mo for CSV export apps.
Connecting Shopify to Google Sheets
Connecting Shopify to Google Sheets requires a webhook trigger point. When a customer completes checkout, Shopify sends an orders/paid JSON payload. Using Make.com's free tier (1,000 operations/mo) or Google Apps Script, you can append order rows, calculate profit margins, and manage inventory logs at $0/month.
Method 1: Make.com 1-Click Webhook Route ($0/mo)
The fastest zero-code method is setting up a Webhooks trigger in Make.com that posts directly to a Google Sheets document:
- Create a free account on Make.com.
- Add a Custom Webhook module as the trigger and copy the generated Webhook URL.
- In Shopify Admin → Settings → Notifications → Webhooks, create a webhook for
Order paymentand paste the Make.com URL. - Add a Google Sheets → Add a Row module in Make.com, select your spreadsheet, and map order fields (Order ID, Total Price, Line Items, Date).
Method 2: Google Apps Script (Zero Operational Limits)
For stores processing 500+ orders per month, Google Apps Script runs directly inside your Google Sheet for free with zero operation caps.
function doPost(e) {
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getActiveSheet();
var data = JSON.parse(e.postData.contents);
sheet.appendRow([
new Date(),
data.name,
data.total_price,
data.currency,
data.customer ? data.customer.email : ''
]);
return ContentService.createTextOutput("SUCCESS").setMimeType(ContentService.MimeType.TEXT);
