shopify webhook - identify a different client

I would like to integrate my backend API with several shopify clients by using webhook created by shopify.

I read that webhook is a push notification triggered by shopify. If I give my server endpoint (receiving order/creating a new customer) to my several shopify clients, how will I identify a different notification?

Will there be a unique identifier(per client) in the notification sent by shopify? It's because if I receive an order notification, I need to identify this order notification with one of my clients in my db.

Please advise me about this use case.

Thanks.

Solution

  • Per the Shopify Webhook Documentation, each webhook from Shopify contains a JSON payload and HTTP headers that provide context.

    The X-Shopify-Shop-Domain HTTP header includes the domain of the shop, e.g., johns-apparel.myshopify.com. You can use this to identify the shop.
