As a user of PartnerMetrics, we recommend adding your Shopify Partner API credentials to the app, so that it can automatically import your payouts data daily. This guide shows how to create your Shopify Partner API credentials in the Shopify Partner Dashboard.

Note: To get historical data, use the CSV import feature first.

To connect the Shopify Partner API, you will need to get your Organization Id and setup an API access token.
