Getting Started with Shopify

Fauxlio mirrors Shopify's API structure, making it easy to develop, test, and validate your apps against realistic, synthetic data - without touching a live Shopify store.

How It Works

  1. Create a Fauxlio Account: Sign up at app.fauxlio.dev and generate an API key.
  2. Connect via Shopify Client Libraries: Use the official Shopify API libraries (Node, Ruby, Python, PHP) or Postman.
  3. Start Querying: Call Fauxlio's endpoints just like you would Shopify's API. We handle the data generation.

API Base URL

All API calls are made to: 

https://{your_subdomain}.myshopify.fauxlio.dev

Include your API key in the X-Shopify-Access-Token header: 

            
curl -H "X-Shopify-Access-Token: YOUR_KEY" https://6fvao84oxdo4.myshopify.fauxlio.dev/admin/api/2025-07/graphql.json

Example: Fetching Products

            
// Using Shopify's Node library
import { createAdminApiClient } from '@shopify/admin-api-client';

const client = createAdminApiClient({
  storeDomain: '6fvao84oxdo4.myshopify.fauxlio.dev',
  apiVersion: 'unstable',
  accessToken: process.env.FAUXLIO_API_KEY,
});

const products = await client.request(`
query {
  productVariants(first: 50, query: "created_at:>'2025-06-27T11:39:20Z'", sortKey: ID) {
