Bloom's automated data sync process makes it easy for Bloom and Shopify to share important data, helping merchants get accurate reports and insights. Here's what happens when Bloom connects with Shopify:
As soon as Bloom is installed, it starts pulling the required information from the Shopify store's records.
Bloom gathers details like orders, products, customers, transactions, and payouts from the Shopify store. This step is crucial for creating detailed reports.
Right after setup, Bloom gets data from the last seven days to start off the reporting. The historical data is then collected in monthly batches.
To keep information current, Bloom automatically updates data every 24 hours. Store owners can also choose to update data manually anytime via the app settings.
Bloom collects the following vital information for accurate reporting and insights.
Orders
Products
Customers
Transactions
Payouts
Bloom uses Shopify's APIs for a smooth and secure data exchange, adhering to Shopify’s rules for app integration.
Your sync times are impacted by:
Data Volume: Larger data volumes take longer to sync
API Call Limit: Your chosen Shopify plan determines how frequently and quickly data is synced
Bloom is programmed to prioritize critical data points of a Shopify store and process them in parallel. This technique saves valuable time when handling large data volumes, improving sync efficiency and accuracy.
To fix these issues, check the app for error messages and follow the troubleshooting procedure provided, or contact Bloom's support team.
Bloom takes the following steps to ensure data security, privacy, and integrity during sync:
Encrypting data transfers using latest industry-standard protocols
Using secure methods to check user identity
Conducting meticulous data validation for consistency and accuracy
Bloom syncs with third-party integrated apps like it does with Shopify, offering the same efficiency, accuracy, and data protection features. By concurrently synchronizing with these platforms, Bloom always maintains data consistency and compatibility. Merchants can look forward to actionable insights about their ad platforms, shipping platform, etc. derived from accurate, timely data.
