Automate Shopify User Provisioning
Without SCIM

Shopify supports SCIM provisioning, but it is gated behind higher-tier enterprise plans. Stepwork automates Shopify provisioning with 98% accuracy — no API required.

Why This Is Painful

Primary: SCIM gated behind enterprise plan;
  • SAML also requires Plus plan

Technical Constraint

Complexity vector: SCIM provisioning and SAML configuration are gated behind enterprise plans; automation is needed to replicate human admin steps for user lifecycle without upgrading; Stepwork handles this reliably.

How Stepwork Solves This

Avoid upgrading to the Enterprise or higher plan just for provisioning. Shopify gates SCIM and SSO behind its Plus plan, increasing costs for identity automation, which is why teams use Stepwork to automate Shopify flows with 98% accuracy without needing an API.

How Stepwork Authenticates to Shopify

Shopify supports SAML sign-on. Stepwork authenticates through your existing identity provider — the same way your employees do.
