Four short setups. Follow the numbered steps in order — each one takes a couple of minutes, and nothing here needs code.
Tracking
Track a store
Paste a store URL and Scrapeify watches it for new drops.
1Open the Scrapeify dashboard and make sure you're logged in.
2Find the “Add store” bar at the top of the console.
3Copy the full store URL from your browser (for example, https://example-store.com) and paste it into the input.
4Press Enter or click Add — Scrapeify will start monitoring that store for new product drops.
5Once added, the store appears in your watched list and new products show up automatically as they're detected.
You can add as many stores as your plan allows.
Alerts
Connect Telegram for alerts
Get a message the moment a new product is detected.
1Log in and go to Settings.
2Click “Link Telegram” — you'll get a short code like LINK-7K3M9.
3Open Telegram and search for @Scrapeify_bot.
4Open a direct chat with it (not a group) and send that code as a message.
5You'll get a confirmation reply within a few seconds once it's linked — new drops will now message you automatically.
Alerts are optional. You'll always see drops in the console.
Auto-listing
Connect your Shopify store
List any detected product to your own store in one click.
1In your Shopify admin, go to Settings → Apps and sales channels → Develop apps, and create a custom app.
2Give it the write_products and write_inventory permissions.
3Install it on your store and copy the API client ID and client secret it gives you.
4Paste your store domain, client ID, and client secret into Scrapeify under Settings.
5You can now list any detected product straight to your store in one click.
This is a custom app connection inside your own Shopify admin — not a Shopify App Store install.
Account
Resetting your password
Recover access through Telegram or email.
1Click “Forgot password?” on either login page (app or affiliate) and enter the username you signed up with.
2If you've connected your Telegram bot, your reset link arrives there instantly.
3If you provided an email at signup and haven't connected Telegram, it'll go there instead.
4If you haven't connected Telegram and didn't provide an email, message @scrapeifysupport on Telegram for help.
5To connect Telegram (if you haven't already): open a direct chat with @Scrapeify_bot and send it the code shown in your dashboard's Telegram section.
We never confirm whether an account exists — the response is always the same, so account existence stays private.
Concepts
What is a Shopify store scraper and how does it work?
A Shopify store scraper is a tool that repeatedly reads a store's public product catalogue and records what changed since the last check. Every Shopify store exposes its live catalogue publicly, so a scraping tool can see titles, prices, images and variants without any special access — the same information any shopper sees.
What gets checked, and how often
Scrapeify re-checks each store you watch on a schedule based on its rating: A-rated stores as often as every 5 minutes, B-rated every 10, C-rated every 15. When a product appears that wasn't there on the previous pass, that's a drop — and it lands in your feed and your Telegram alerts within that polling window.
Checking 30–50 stores by hand isn't realistic, and the useful window on a new product is short. Automated Shopify competitor monitoring turns that into a single feed, so you see a new listing while it's still fresh instead of after its ads are already running. Setup takes a store URL — see Track a store above, or the store tracking limits on each plan.
Product research
How to find winning dropshipping products
Most product research fails because it starts from a guess. A more reliable approach is to work backwards from stores that are already selling: watch the ones that consistently launch and scale products, then judge each new drop on evidence.
1. Build a watchlist of proven stores
Pick stores in your niche that publish often and price aggressively. Ratings help here — a higher-rated store is checked more frequently and its drops are worth more attention.
2. Check margin before you commit
A product only wins if the numbers work. Pull a rough cost-of-goods estimate on the drop, request a supplier quote to confirm it, then compare against the competitor's retail price to see the real spread.
3. List fast, then measure honestly
Push the product to your own Shopify store in one click, launch ads, and track profit rather than revenue — ad spend and cost per unit decide whether it was a winner. Read how Scrapeify detects new product drops for the full flow.
