# Shopify Customers integration
### 🎯 **Why Use This Feature?**
After the form is submitted, a new customer account will be created in Customers of your Shopify store. The data filled on the form will also be added to customer detail. Reference: [Customer · Shopify Help Center](https://help.shopify.com/en/api/reference/customers/customer#properties-2019-10)
By linking your form fields to Shopify’s customer fields, you can:
* Automatically create new customer account in Shopify Customers
* Automatically update customer information.
* Improve customer management.
To achieve that, all you need to do is to link all of your form elements to the customer properties.
Below are the common customer properties:
* Email
* Phone
* First name
* Last name
* Address: Address
* Address: Apartment
* Address: City
* Address: Province
* Address: Zip, postal code
* Address: Company
* Address: Country
* Password

### ⚙️ **Steps to Map Form with Customers**
Please follow our instructions to interlink your form elements to Shopify Customer Data
1\. Open the app > click **Forms** > open the form you want to edit
2\. Click the **Integration** icon on the left side > enable **Shopify** and click on **Shopify** option to see setting detail
3\. Select **Shopify Account options**
You will see several account options:
* Automatically create customer account
* Send email invitation (optional)
* Require account approval (optional)
Choose the options that match your store’s workflow (e.g. automatic account creation or manual approval).
4\. Map form fields to Shopify Customer Fields
* On the right side, you’ll see Shopify customer attributes (Email, Phone, First Name, Last Name, Address, etc.).
* On the left, your form’s fields.
Map each form field to the corresponding Shopify attribute (e.g. “Email” → Shopify **Email**, “First name” → Shopify **First name**).
📌 **Important:** Mapping the form’s **Email** field to Shopify **Email** is required.
For address or other data, map as needed. Extra data (that doesn’t match standard Shopify fields) can go into **Tags, Notes, or Metafields**.
5\. (Optional) Add Customer Tags, Notes, or Metafields
**6. Save** the form to apply the change
From now on, form submissions will create/update Shopify customer accounts automatically (depending on your options).
***
### ⚠️ Important Notes & Limitations
* The **Email** field must be mapped. It’s required by Shopify to create a customer record.
* Only standard Shopify customer attributes are supported (name, email, phone, address, password). Extra or custom data should be stored via **Tags, Notes, or Metafields**.
