What is Cloudhooks?
Cloudhooks is a Shopify app to manage Shopify webhooks and create custom integrations based on webhook events.
It's a low-code development tool used to extend the functionality of Shopify stores.
Developers can write hooks - snippets of javascript code - which are triggered by store events. A hook can invoke actions which call the Shopify API, make HTTP requests, send emails, connect to databases, etc.
Cloudhooks manages the hook's lifecycle: writing code, testing with payloads, deployment, and viewing the run logs.
Some real-life use cases implemented by Cloudhooks customers:
- Send products and price of the order to Google Analytics (example)
- Register the customer on a membership website
- Add customer to Mailerlite (example)
- Send email when a coupon is redeemed
- Notify store owner when a refund is requested (example)
- Synchronize order state between Shopify and Zendesk
- Fulfill order by a 3rd party fulfillment service
