Order Lookup
Your AI assistant can look up Shopify orders and give customers updates on their order status, tracking info, and delivery details — right in the chat.
How It Works
- A customer asks something like "Where is my order?"
- The AI asks for their email (if it doesn't already know who they are)
- It finds their recent orders in Shopify
- It responds with the order details
What Customers Can Find Out
The AI can tell customers:
- Order status — whether it's been fulfilled, shipped, or is still being processed
- Tracking info — tracking number and carrier link
- Order items — what they ordered and how many
- Order total — including shipping and taxes
- Order date — when they placed the order
How Customers Are Identified
For the AI to look up orders, it needs to know who the customer is. This happens when:
- The customer enters their email in the chat widget
- The AI asks for their email during the conversation
- The customer was already identified from a previous visit
Good to Know
- The AI can access orders from the last 60 days by default
- Full order history access may be available depending on your Shopify app permissions
- Orders that have been archived in your Shopify admin won't show up — this is a Shopify limitation
