Can merchants monitor traffic by channel?
Yes. Merchants can monitor traffic by channel in Shopify using analytics and reports that show where visitors come from—such as the online store, social media, search engines, marketplaces, email campaigns, or other sales and marketing channels.
What happens if a channel becomes unsupported?
If a sales channel becomes unsupported, the integration may stop receiving updates or support, and product, inventory, order, or pricing synchronization may no longer work reliably. Merchants may need to migrate to a supported integration, remove the channel, or manage it manually.
