Shopify Metals Commodity Integration

I use Shopify as my storefront and now need it to talk seamlessly with a third-party app we internally call “Buying Commodity.” The purpose of the connection is straightforward: let customers purchase metals directly through our Shopify checkout while the external platform handles live pricing, order execution, and post-sale inventory updates. Here’s what I need done: • Set up a secure API bridge between Shopify and the Buying Commodity platform so product data, price feeds, and stock levels stay in sync in real time. • Push each confirmed Shopify order to the app, retrieve the executed trade details, and display status updates back to the customer’s account page. • Map SKU-level information so our metal variants (weight, purity, etc.) remain consistent across both systems. • Provide a short hand-over document outlining any custom code, webhooks, and environment variables so we can maintain it in-house. Acceptance criteria: the integration must process at least one test purchase end-to-end without manual intervention, update inventory correctly, and pass Shopify’s app validation checklist. Let me know your estimated timeframe and any questions about the Buying Commodity API docs—I’ll supply tokens and a staging store as soon as we agree on the approach.
